The *HCIP-Storage V5.5 Training Material (Module 5: Storage System Maintenance and Troubleshooting)* describes the tools used for Huawei storage system deployment: “The Storage Deployment Tool (SDT) is designed to streamline software installation for Huawei storage systems. SDT collects and evaluates compatibility information in a one-stop manner and supports batch installation of UltraPath, the multipathing software, enhancing installation efficiency.” The SDT automates and simplifies deployment tasks, making it the correct tool for this description.

The *HCIP-Storage V5.5 Training Material (Module 5: Storage System Maintenance and Troubleshooting)* details the low-level design (LLD) mode for Huawei scale-out storage: “In LLD mode, the Storage Deployment Tool (SDT) is used to plan nodes, networks, and clusters, generating a configuration file that guides subsequent installation and deployment.” The SDT ensures precise configuration for complex deployments, making it the correct tool for this task.

The software installation process for Huawei OceanStor Pacific scale-out storage systems is detailed in the *HCIP-Storage V5.5 Training Material (Module 3: Scale-Out Storage Technologies)*. Let’s evaluate each option:

- Option A: True. The material states: “For block service installation with converged compute and storage nodes, each node requires at least 20 vCPUs to support management and data processing tasks.”

- Option B: True. The material confirms: “In converged deployments, the disk quantity difference between any two nodes in a storage pool must not exceed 2 or 30% of the disk count on the node with the most disks to ensure balanced performance.”

- Option C: False. The material explains: “Wizard-based software installation automates node addition, network configuration, and control cluster creation via DeviceManager, reducing manual steps. Engineers do not need to perform these tasks manually before installing the OceanStor Pacific software.” This makes the statement incorrect.

- Option D: True. The material notes: “DPC installation requires a minimum of 20 GB of memory on compute nodes to ensure stable operation.”

Thus, option C is false.

The *HCIP-Storage V5.5 Training Material (Module 5: Storage System Maintenance and Troubleshooting)* details management tools:

- Option A: False. “SmartKit is used for hardware inspection, OS installation, and firmware upgrades, but it does not provide alarm reporting, file upload, or remote access capabilities.”

- Option B: True. “DeviceManager supports resource allocation, user management, data protection, performance monitoring, and alarm management.”

- Option C: True. “DME IQ provides cloud-based management, remote maintenance, and predictive analytics.”

- Option D: True. “The CLI supports all listed functions, including resource allocation and alarm management.”

Thus, option A is false.

The HyperSnap feature in Huawei flash storage systems, such as OceanStor Dorado, enables point-in-time snapshots for data protection. The *HCIP-Storage V5.5 Training Material (Module 2: Flash Storage Technologies)* states: “To create snapshots using HyperSnap, the storage pool containing the source LUNs must have sufficient available capacity to store snapshot metadata and copy-on-write (COW) data. If the storage pool lacks free space, snapshot creation for a protection group will fail.” This aligns with the question’s statement that a lack of available capacity in the storage pool prevents snapshot creation for a protection group, making the statement true. The material emphasizes that capacity issues are a common cause of snapshot failures, as snapshots require additional space for incremental changes.

This question tests knowledge of the reliability features of the Huawei OceanStor Pacific series, as covered in the *HCIP-Storage V5.5 Training Material (Module 3: Scale-Out Storage Technologies)*. Let’s evaluate each option:

- Option A: False. The training material states: “OceanStor Pacific uses advanced erasure coding (EC) and multi-copy technologies for data reliability, moving beyond traditional disk-level RAID modes.” While RAID-like concepts may be used internally, the system primarily relies on distributed EC or replication, not traditional RAID, making this statement inaccurate.

- Option B: True. The material confirms: “Kunpeng processors integrate multiple chip functions, reducing points of failure and enhancing hardware reliability.” This is a correct statement.

- Option C: True. The material notes: “Link aggregation ensures transmission link redundancy, with automatic switchover or isolation for faulty or subhealthy links, maintaining service continuity.” This is accurate.

- Option D: False. The material clarifies: “Multi-copy technology ensures data redundancy across nodes, but it does not implement intra-node RAID. If a node fails, reliability depends on inter-node copies or EC, and it is not necessarily higher than EC mechanisms, which are optimized for distributed systems.” This makes the statement false, as it misrepresents the technology and its comparative reliability.

Thus, options A and D are false.

The *HCIP-Storage V5.5 Training Material (Module 5: Storage System Maintenance and Troubleshooting)* addresses hardware maintenance: “Before removing a faulty interface module, engineers must perform pre-operations, such as disabling the module via DeviceManager or CLI, ensuring no active I/O, and verifying redundancy to avoid service disruption. Direct removal withoutthese steps can cause data loss or system errors.” The statement that the module can be removed without pre-operations is false, as these steps are mandatory.
