SSD - Solid State Drive PPT by Shyam jos Shyam Jos
Solid State Drive (SSD)
In 1995, M-Systems introduced the first flash-based solid-state drives. SSDs use non-volatile solid state memory like NAND flash or DRAM to store data without moving parts, distinguishing them from traditional hard disk drives. SSDs have significant performance advantages over HDDs with faster access times and read/write speeds, higher reliability since there are no moving parts, lower power consumption, and silent operation. However, SSDs currently have higher costs and offer less storage capacity than HDDs.

Standard features include: RAID 6 (ADG)—RAID 6 (Advanced Data Guarding) protects against any two drive failures.
Supported with a minimum of four drives, but would have two available. Can be supported on all servers. RAID 60—Supported
with a minimum of eight drives, but would have four available. A target benefit is to split RAID across the external boxes. Can
be supported on all servers. Advanced capacity expansion (ACE)—Higher capacity migrations use capacity transformation to
remove logical drives by shrinking and then expanding them online. Mirror splitting and recombining in offline mode—This is
similar to a scaled down rollback functionality, which requires 2 hard disk drives (for example, take a RAID 1 and break into 2
RAID 0s).Drive erase—Erase a physical disk or logical volume securely. Useful to decommission, redeploy, or return hard drives
for security purposes. Performance optimization—Degraded reads and read coalescing; video on demand (VOD) performance
optimizations that improve latency while video streaming.

7. QUESTION 26
A complete power failure occurs during a system ROM upgrade on a ProLiant DL380 G6. What happens when the server is
restarted?
A. The server continues using the original ROM version.
B. The server stops during POST and prompts to continue the upgrade.
C. The server must be reloaded with the original ROM version.
D. The server restarts using the updated ROM version.
Answer: B
Section:
(none)
Explanation/Reference:
Servicing ProLiant Servers - Page 27
Recovering from a failed ROM upgrade
A ROM upgrade can fail for a variety of reasons, such as: A power failure, operating system lockup, or other catastrophic event
occurs during the system ROM upgrade process — When this occurs, the ROM upgrade does not complete, and the ROM image
on the target server is corrupted. The ROM upgrade process is interrupted for any other reason — The upgrade process must be
complete for the ROM upgrade to be successful.
!
Important In the event of an unsuccessful ROM upgrade, the server will not operate correctly, and you must implement ROM
disaster recovery procedures to regain server functionality. If a redundant ROM image is present, disaster recovery procedures
are not necessary.
Recovering from a failed system ROM upgrade
Recovery from a system ROM upgrade failure can be accomplished using the redundant ROM feature of a server or
using ROM Paq.
Redundant ROM recovery
On servers with the redundant ROM feature, the ROM acts as two separate ROMs. In the standard implementation, one side of
the ROM contains the current ROM version, while the other side of the ROM contains the backup version, enabling you to
switch easily to the backup version. This feature protects the previous ROM version, even if a power failure occurs while flashing
the ROM. When the server boots, the system identifies whether the current ROM bank is corrupt. If a corrupt ROM is detected,
the system boots from the backup ROM and alerts the user through POST that the ROM bank is corrupt.
QUESTION 27
Your customer's server failed. You have followed the HP Six Step Troubleshooting Methodology and have determined that the
problem, a defective power supply, is fixed. You recommend to your customer that they install a redundant power supply to help
prevent further downtime. Which step of the HP Troubleshooting Methodology are you implementing?
A.Implement preventive measures
B.Develop an action plan
C.Evaluate data
D.Execute an action plan
Answer: A
Section:
(none)
Explanation/Reference:
APS Service Fundamentals - Page 205
Step 6 — Implement preventive measures
As soon as the problem is resolved, look at opportunities to implement preventive measures to stop the problem from occurring
again, and look for other ways to improve or increase availability. To implement preventive measures:
1. Determine the root cause of the problem.
2. Determine proactive steps that can prevent the problem from recurring.
3. Devise a system test to verify changes and procedures before implementing them.
4. Implement a new set of procedures, software, and administrative maintenance to attain a higher level of availability.
5. Perform preventive maintenance, including checking for loose cables, reseating boards and checking for proper airflow.
6. Add fault-tolerant elements to critical subsystems, where applicable. A carefully planned system software maintenance
strategy maximizes server stability and availability. By developing well-regulated system software baselines for business servers,
you can reduce the time required to update or troubleshoot existing servers and ensure that new servers are set up with tested and

Answer: A
Section:

Explanation/Reference:
APS Service Fundamentals - Page 192
% Processor Time — displays the percentage of time that the processor spends executing a non-idle thread. This counter was
designed as a primary indicator of processor activity and displays the average percentage of busy time observed during the
sample interval. It is calculated by measuring the time that the processor spends executing the thread of the idle process in each
sample interval, and subtracting that value from 100%. (Each processor has an idle thread that consumes cycles when no other
threads are ready to run.)This counter can be viewed as the percentage of the sample interval spent doing useful work. If the
processor time reaches 80%, you need to replace the existing processor with a faster processor or add an additional processor.

Explanation/Reference:
Servicing Proliant Servers - Page 27 Recovering from a failed ROM upgrade
A ROM upgrade can fail for a variety of reasons, such as: A power failure, operating system lockup, or other catastrophic event
occurs during the system ROM upgrade process — When this occurs, the ROM upgrade does not complete, and the ROM image
on the target server is corrupted. The ROM upgrade process is interrupted for any other reason — The upgrade process must be
complete for the ROM upgrade to be successful.
!
Important In the event of an unsuccessful ROM upgrade, the server will not operate correctly, and you must implement ROM
disaster recovery procedures to regain server functionality. If a redundant ROM image is present, disaster recovery procedures
are not necessary. Recovering from a failed system ROM upgrade
Recovery from a system ROM upgrade failure can be accomplished using the redundant ROM feature of a server or using ROM
Paq. Redundant ROM recovery
On servers with the redundant ROM feature, the ROM acts as two separate ROMs. In the standard implementation, one side of
the ROM contains the current ROM version, while the other side of the ROM contains the backup version, enabling you to
switch easily to the backup version. This feature protects the previous ROM version, even if a power failure occurs while flashing
the ROM. When the server boots, the system identifies whether the current ROM bank is corrupt. If a corrupt ROM is detected,
the system boots from the backup ROM and alerts the user through POST that the ROM bank is corrupt.

Following rack safety guidelines
Rack installations must follow these important safety guidelines:
Leveling feet must extend to the floor.
Ensure that the full weight of the rack rests on the leveling feet.
Attach stabilizing feet to the rack if it is a single-rack installation.
Couple racks together in multiple-rack installations.
Extend only one component at a time or the rack may become unstable.
Castors are not designed for regular use with racks. If this occurs, lower theleveling feet to the ground and raise rack
until castors are not touching thefloor.
Distribute weight properly and meet all weight requirements to avoid thedanger of serious injury and damage to
equipment. Install ballast kits ifnecessary to meet minimum requirements.

Pages/Sec
27. — Displays the number of pages read from or written to disk to resolve hard page faults. Hard page faults occur when a process
requires code or data that is not in its working set or elsewhere in physical memory, and must be retrieved from disk. This
counter was designed as a primary indicator of the kinds of faults that cause system wide delays. It is the sum of Memory: Pages
Input/sec and Memory: Pages Output/sec. It is counted in numbers of pages, so it can be compared to other counts of pages, such
as Memory: Page Faults/sec, without conversion. The counter includes pages retrieved to satisfy faults in the file system
cache(usually requested by applications) and non-cached mapped memory files. This counter displays the difference between the
values observed in the last two samples, divided by the duration of the sample interval. On most servers, if this value is
consistently greater than 5, it indicates an excessive amount of paging. Try to identify the application that is creating the paging
condition. If this is not normal behavior for the application, adding memory might increase system performance.

Answer: A
Section:

Explanation/Reference:
Servicing Proliant Servers - Page 27
Recovering from a failed system ROM upgrade
Recovery from a system ROM upgrade failure can be accomplished using the redundant ROM feature of a server or using ROM
Paq. Redundant ROM recovery On servers with the redundant ROM feature, the ROM acts as two separate ROMs. In the
standard implementation, one side of the ROM contains the current ROM version, while the other side of the ROM contains the
29. backup version, enabling you to switch easily to the backup version. This feature protects the previous ROM version, even if a
power failure occurs while flashing the ROM.
When the server boots, the system identifies whether the current ROM bank is corrupt. If a corrupt ROM is detected, the system
boots from the backup ROM and alerts the user through POST that the ROM bank is corrupt. If RBSU is inaccessible, switching
ROM images can also be done by changing the switch settings on the system configuration switch. If both ROM images are
corrupt, use the ROM Paq recovery.
