1 / 8 Exam : HPE1-H05 Title : https://www.passcert.com/HPE1-H05.html Advanced HPE Compute and HPE Storage Practical Exam 2 / 8 1.A customer has a Synergy frame with two Composer modules. They want to factory reset the entire environment (delete all profiles, logical interconnects, and network definitions) to start a fresh POC, but they want to keep the OS version on the Composers. They select "Factory Reset" from the maintenance console. What is the critical consequence of this action regarding the Frame Link Modules (FLMs)? A. The FLMs are powered off and must be reseated. B. The FLM firmware is downgraded to the factory shipping version. C. The FLMs retain their IP settings to allow immediate reconnection. D. The FLMs are also reset to factory defaults, losing their IP addresses and management ring configuration. Answer: D 2.A customer has a 3-frame Synergy ring managed by a pair of Composer 2 modules. The primary Composer in Frame 1 fails permanently. You insert a replacement Composer 2 module into the same bay. What is the expected behavior for the system to recover high availability? A. You must re-run the "Guided Setup" to add the new Composer to the existing management ring. B. You must manually restore the backup file to the new Composer using the maintenance console. C. The new Composer will PXE boot from the surviving Composer, automatically re-image itself to the cluster version, and join the cluster to synchronize the database. D. You must use a USB drive with the specific OneView ISO to image the new module first. Answer: C 3.You are investigating a performance complaint from a VMware administrator. They report that "VM-SQL-01" is sluggish. You log into HPE InfoSight and navigate to the "Cross-Stack Analytics" view for this VM. You observe that the "Host CPU Ready" time is consistently above 10%, while the "Storage Latency" is under 1ms. What does this specific correlation indicate? A.

What is the correct method to apply this new image to the existing Compute Modules without deleting the Server Profiles? A. Manually mount the new ISO in the iLO of each server and reboot. B. Edit the Server Profile Template, change the "OS Deployment Plan" to the new artifact, and select "Update from Template" for the profiles. C. Use the "Image Streamer Uplink" to push the file to the OS partition directly. D. Delete the Server Profiles and recreate them with the new image. Answer: B 7.A customer asks for a monthly report detailing the "Power Consumption" history of their Synergy frames to cross-charge departments based on energy usage. They want to export this data to a CSV format. Which OneView feature provides this specific historical metric capability? A. The "Reports" menu -> "Power and Thermal" -> "Utilization". B. The Dashboard "Pie Chart" view. C. The "Activity" log. D. You must use the REST API GET /rest/metrics endpoint directly; the UI does not support historical export.
