Points to Understand Before the Exam

• Unisphere Features: Unisphere for PowerMax provides workload planning, monitoring, Data Exclusion and Headroom features; use these settings to size workloads and check headroom before finalizing design recommendations.
• Solutions Enabler: Solutions Enabler provides command and daemon support for host interactions with PowerMax; installation and upgrade steps differ by Unix, Linux, and Windows hosts and must follow supported platform guidance.
