Question 16

Question

DRAG DROPA recent power Outage caused email services to go down. A sever administrator also received alerts from the datacenter’s UPS. After some investigation, the server administrator learned that each POU was rated at a maximum Of 12A.INSTRUCTIONSEnsure power redundancy is implemented throughout each rack and UPS alarms are resolved. Ensure the maximum potential PDU consumption does not exceed 80% or 9.6A).a. PDU selections must be changed using the pencil icon.b. VM Hosts 1 and 2 and Mail Relay can be moved between racks.c. Certain devices contain additional details

VM Host 1 → Target 1, Mail Relay → Target 2. This setup keeps the power draw for each rack within that 80% (9.6A) threshold and splits the critical services for redundancy. I think this is what they want to get rid of those UPS alarms, but open to other takes if someone did it differently.

Zoe G. · Answer

Looks like VM Host 1 should go to Target 1 and Mail Relay to Target 2, based on load balancing and not exceeding the PDU threshold. This fits with keeping both power redundancy and max draw under control. Pretty sure this is how you avoid those UPS alarms.

Emma S. · Answer

I don’t think VM Host 2 should be paired with Mail Relay here. If you put both VM Hosts together, it risks blowing past 9.6A on one rack, which kills redundancy and could set off UPS alarms. The better split is VM Host 1 to Target 1, Mail Relay to Target 2. Keeps both racks balanced and under the threshold. Anyone see a reason to choose the other VM Host?

Ishaan T. · Answer

Seen similar on practice, official guide breaks down redundancy and PDU usage exactly like this. VM Host 1 to Target 1, Mail Relay to Target 2.

Chris Z. · Answer

Yep, Zoe's got it. VM Host 1 goes to Target 1 and Mail Relay to Target 2-keeps both racks under 9.6A and spreads the load for redundancy. That's the way to clear those UPS warnings.
