Review 48 HPE2-B04 practice questions with answer explanations and community insights.
Question 1
You are deploying HPE Alletra dHCI to support a VMware environment. The company wants to use HPE InfoSight for this environment, including both the hardware and the VMware layer. What must you do to integrate the solution with InfoSight? (Choose two.)
Register the vCenter server inside of Data Services Cloud Console.
Install the HPE Storage Integration Pack for VMware vCenter in Center
Register the HPE Alletra arrays inside of HPE InfoSight
Use vCenter to enable telemetry streaming on the Alletra storage arrays
Verity that Infosight Cross-Stack Analytics for VMware is enabled.
Question 2
You are proposing HPE ProLiant DL servers and HPE Alletra arrays for a company with a highly virtualized environment that uses VMware vSphere. The customer currently feels that SAN management is too complex, and it takes storage admins too long to respond to VMware admins’ requests. In what way do HPE solutions help customers address these challenges?
Alletra arrays’ built in VSAN capabilities enable VMware admins to create, delete, and snapshot volumes on the arrays from within vCenter.
HPE InfoSight enables admins to create and expand datastores on HPE Alletra from within vCenter.
The HPE OneView for vCenter plugin enables admins to create and expand datastores on HPE Alletra from within vCenter.
The HPE Alletra Storage vCenter Plugin enables admins to create and expand datastores on HPE Alletra from within vCenter.
Question 3
What is a benefit of the HPE Alletra plug-in for vCenter?
dynamic creation of Persistent Volumes (PVs) for containers hosted on VMs
automated firmware updates for Alletra arrays from vCenter
ability to create and expand datastores based on Alletra volumes directly from vCenter
storage management actions integrated into VMware Aria workflows
Question 4
A customer uses HPE Synergy compute modules as VMware ESXi hosts in a cluster What is one way customers can use HPE tools to simplify firmware management for the HPE Synergy modules?
They can deploy the HPE Contant Packs for vRealize Log Insight to gain visibility into the compute module’s BIOS settings and firmware.
They can use HPE OneView for vRealize Orchestrator (OV4vRO) plugin for Aria Automation Orchestrator to create workflows for upgrading server OS and compute module firmware together.
They can integrate VMware vRealize Automation (vRA) with HPE Composable Fabric Manager and then use vRA scripts to upgrade Synergy compute and fabric modules.
They can use HPE OneView for VMware vRealize Business for Cloud to monitor and inventory server assets, including their firmware.
Question 5
A customer needs a server infrastructure upgrade for their VMware vSphere 8 environment. The customer plans to start using NSX. Which HPE solution helps to reduce the impact of adding this feature on workload performance?
HPE Synergy 480 Gen 11 compute modules
HPE ProLiant with VMware vSphere Distributed Service Engine
