NEW QUESTION 37
You are assessing a volume configuration in an attempt to improve its performance. You notice that the redo logs are on VxVM RAID-5 volume with user tablespaces and data files. You want to ensure that redo logs are stored as the best practices and guidelines. What should you do?

Do nothing because this is the optimal volume layout for redo logs.

Convert the RAID-5 layout to a striped and mirrored volume.

Put the redo logs on a separate file system from the user tablespaces and datafiles created on a striped and mirrored volume.

Put the redo logs on a separate RAID-5 volume from the user tablespaces and datafiles.

NEW QUESTION 38
A DLP administrator has enabled and successfully tested custom attribute lookups for incident data based on the Active Directory LDAP plugin. The Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) has attempted to generate a User Risk Summary report, but the report is empty. The DLP administrator confirms the Cisco’s role has the
“User Reporting” privilege enabled, but User Risk reporting is still not working.
What is the probable reason that the User Risk Summary report is blank?

Only DLP administrators are permitted to access and view data for high risk users.

The Enforce server has insufficient permissions for importing user attributes.

User attribute data must be configured separately from incident data attributed.

User attributes have been incorrectly mapped to Active Directory accounts.

This command will create a nodata storage checkpoint.

This command will create a removable storage checkpoint.

This command will convert the storage checkpoint to the nodata storage checkpoint.

This command will create a storage checkpoint, but not the nodata storage checkpoint.

NEW QUESTION 46
You are responsible for managing two Storage Foundation 5.0 servers, Srv1 and Srv2. You want to permanently move a disk group from Srv1 to Srv2. However, the Srv2 already has a disk group with the same name. You need to move the disk group without making modifications to the data on the disks.

system backups are performed improperly

NEW QUESTION 49
What is the first step an administrator should take to improve the performance of Network Monitor when network traffic exceeds 1 Gbps?

Increase system memory (RAM) for existing Network Prevent servers.

Add more Network Prevent servers to the Symantec DLP environment.

Filter out all network traffic that is unreadable to Network Monitor.

Install network taps and connect them to existing Network Monitor servers.

Network Monitor can inspect only traffic that reaches its capture interfaces and that its protocol and content- analysis components can meaningfully process. When the traffic volume exceeds the supported inspection rate, the first optimization is to eliminate unnecessary traffic before adding infrastructure. Filtering encrypted, unsupported, irrelevant, or otherwise unreadable traffic prevents Network Monitor from consuming capture and processing capacity on sessions that cannot produce useful DLP inspection results. Options A and B incorrectly refer to Network Prevent servers rather than the overloaded Network Monitor detector. Installing additional network taps changes how traffic is copied to Network Monitor but does not inherently reduce the excessive volume being processed. Therefore, filtering unreadable traffic is the appropriate first performance- remediation step, making option C correct.
