HPE2-T37 Exam Dumps - Using HPE OneView

The HPE OneView appliance can be deployed to KVM, in addition to VMware ESXi and Microsoft Hyper-V. HPE provides support for deploying the OneView virtual appliance on KVM hypervisors, allowing customers with KVM environments to use OneView for managing their infrastructure.

Option A (Correct): KVM is a supported hypervisor for HPE OneView appliance deployment.

Option B: Incorrect, as KVM is supported.

Option C/D: Workarounds like nested virtualization are unnecessary since KVM is supported.

The HPE Storage Integration Pack for VMware vCenter is deployed as a virtual appliance to the supported hypervisor. This means it is delivered as a pre-configured virtual machine image that you import into your VMware environment. Deploying it as a virtual appliance simplifies installation and integration, allowing for seamless management of HPE storage resources directly within VMware vCenter.

In a server profile for HPE Superdome Flex, you can define the nPartition configuration. HPE OneView allows administrators to manage nPartitions (nPars), which are hardware-based partitions providing electrical isolation between different partitions of the Superdome Flex server. This includes defining partition boundaries, assigning resources like CPUs and memory, and configuring boot options.

Option B: While BMC settings are important, nPartition configurations are more specific to Superdome Flex profiles.

Option C: Firmware baselines can be applied but are not unique to Superdome Flex server profiles.

Option D: Ethernet connections are typically defined for standard servers, but nPartitioning is a key feature for Superdome Flex.

An iLO in an HPE ProLiant server can obtain an IP address from the subnet and address range defined in the HPE OneView settings. HPE OneView allows administrators to define IP address pools for various components, including iLO management addresses. When a server is added to HPE OneView, it can automatically assign an IP address to the iLO from the predefined range.

Option A: Storage arrays typically have their IP configurations managed separately.

Option B: Rack Management Controllers may not be configured using IP pools in HPE OneView.

Option C: HPE Synergy compute nodes use a different method (the Frame Link Module) for management network configuration.

Connections

To use the second mezzanine slot in an HPE Synergy 480 Gen10 compute node for dedicated FC connectivity, a second processor must be installed. The second mezzanine slot is electrically connected to the second processor's PCIe lanes. Without the second CPU, the slot is inactive and cannot be used, regardless of any configuration in HPE OneView.

Option A: While server profiles are necessary, they do not enable hardware components.

Option B: Memory size does not affect mezzanine slot availability.

Option C: Licensing does not enable hardware slots; it allows for management features.

Your customer can obtain the PowerShell Library for HPE OneView by downloading it from the Microsoft PowerShell Gallery. The library is publicly available and can be installed using standard PowerShell commands. This allows users to automate and script HPE OneView operations, enhancing efficiency and integration with existing workflows.

Installation Command:

Install-Module -Name HPOneView.XXX

(Replace 'XXX' with the specific version number)

Management - OneView Edition. This offering integrates HPE OneView's management capabilities with the HPE GreenLake cloud platform, providing advanced compute management for modern ProLiant servers.

Option C (Correct): HPE ProLiant Gen10 and newer systems are compatible with this service.

Option A: ProLiant G6 servers are legacy systems and are not supported.

Option B: While HPE Synergy compute nodes are managed by HPE OneView, this specific edition focuses on ProLiant servers.

Option D: HPE Superdome Flex servers are not included under this particular management edition.

HPE Synergy frames are managed using the HPE Composer 2, which runs an embedded instance of HPE OneView tailored for Synergy infrastructure. This means that while HPE OneView is used to manage both ProLiant servers and Synergy frames, the Synergy frames require management through the Composer's embedded OneView instance, not the external OneView appliance used for ProLiant servers.

The server profile template feature available only for HPE Synergy compute nodes is the Firmware and drivers update options integrated with the HPE Image Streamer. This allows for:

Stateless Computing: Deploy both firmware and operating system images rapidly.

Driver Management: Simultaneous management of firmware and drivers through server profiles.

Unique to HPE Synergy:

HPE Image Streamer: Exclusive to HPE Synergy, enabling deployment of OS images along with firmware updates.

Enhanced Server Profiles: Include the ability to define the complete software stack in the server profile template.

Auto

Licenses were not purchased in the original order for the modules and were ordered separately.

When utilizing 25Gb connectivity for all HPE Synergy compute nodes, the maximum number of frames that can form a single logical enclosure is 3. This limitation is due to the bandwidth and port constraints associated with 25Gb interconnect modules. Logical enclosures define the management and networking domains within the Synergy infrastructure, and adhering to these limits ensures optimal performance and reliability.

To visualize the rack system and the Aruba top-of-rack switches in HPE OneView, the customer should define the switches as unmanaged devices manually. By adding the Aruba switches as unmanaged devices, they become part of the rack layout within HPE OneView, allowing for a comprehensive visual representation of the physical infrastructure.

Option A (Correct): Manually adding switches as unmanaged devices includes them in rack visualizations.

Option B: HPE OneView does not automatically discover and add third-party switches via hardware discovery.

Option C: Unless specifically supported, Aruba switches cannot be added as managed devices.

Option D: Monitored devices require SNMP support and integration, which may not be available for these switches.

The customer should verify the consistency checking level for SAN storage in the server profile. In HPE OneView, server profile templates have settings that define whether differences in storage configurations between the template and the server profiles are considered inconsistencies. If the consistency checking for SAN storage is not enabled or set to a relaxed level, adding an extra volume to a server profile may not trigger an inconsistency report.

Option C (Correct): Ensuring that the consistency checking for SAN storage is properly configured will detect deviations.

Option A: The state of SAN connections affects connectivity, not template compliance.

Option B: FC network definitions are important but not directly related to template consistency checks.

Option D: Licensing issues would prevent functionality but not affect consistency reporting.

HPE GreenLake for Compute Ops Management - OneView Edition can be used free of charge for the HPE Synergy platform because the licenses are included. This means that customers using HPE Synergy systems receive the benefits of HPE OneView management capabilities without additional licensing costs.

Option A is incorrect because HPE OneView versions do not align with version 8.40; as of the knowledge cutoff in 2023, HPE OneView versions are up to 6.x.

Option C is incorrect because the availability of the service is not restricted to customers with more than three HPE Synergy frames.

Option D is incorrect because HPE ProLiant G6 servers are not supported by HPE OneView; support typically begins from Gen8 servers onward.
