Huawei Updated H19-308_V4.0 Exam Questions and Answers by josh

The statement is false. DAS, or Direct-Attached Storage, is not a centralized shared storage architecture. It is storage that connects directly to a single server or host without passing through a dedicated storage network. Because of this direct connection, the storage resources are normally controlled by the attached server and are not naturally shared by multiple servers. A centralized shared storage system is more accurately represented by SAN or NAS. SAN provides shared block-level storage to multiple hosts through FC, iSCSI, or similar storage networks, while NAS provides shared file-level storage through protocols such as NFS or SMB/CIFS. DAS is simple and low-cost for small deployments, but it has limitations in scalability, sharing, and centralized management. Therefore, DAS should not be described as centralized shared storage.

The statement is true. Multipart upload is a standard object storage capability used to upload a large object by splitting it into multiple smaller parts. These parts can be uploaded independently and, in many cases, in parallel. This improves upload efficiency for large files because failed parts can be retried without restarting the entire upload. It is especially useful when the network environment is unstable or poor, because a temporary failure affects only one part rather than the whole object. Multipart upload is also useful when the final file size is uncertain, because parts can be uploaded progressively before the storage system combines them into one complete object. In Huawei object storage scenarios, multipart upload helps improve reliability, performance, and user experience for large-scale data upload.

Huawei OceanStor Pacific scale-out storage is positioned around three key selling points: always efficient, always cost-effective, and always-on services. “Always efficient” refers to its distributed architecture, multi-protocol access, high throughput, and capability to handle massive unstructured data workloads. “Always cost-effective” reflects its ability to use high-density storage, erasure coding, and flexible redundancy policies to reduce the cost per terabyte for large-scale data. “Always-on services” refers to high availability features such as node-level fault tolerance, multi-site protection, and fast service recovery. Option D is incorrect because tolerating the failure of seven out of eight controllers is associated with high-end OceanStor Dorado controller reliability, not OceanStor Pacific scale-out node protection. Therefore, A, B, and C are the correct key selling points.

The statement is false because it reverses the SCSI-3 communication roles. In a SAN environment, the application server or host normally acts as the initiator. The initiator sends SCSI commands such as read and write requests to the storage system. The SAN storage system acts as the target because it receives those commands and provides block-level storage resources, such as LUNs, back to the server. This initiator-target model is fundamental in FC SAN, iSCSI SAN, and other block storage architectures. Huawei OceanStor SAN storage follows the same principle: hosts access storage volumes through initiator ports, while the storage array exposes target ports and logical units. Therefore, saying that the server is the target and the SAN storage is the initiator is technically incorrect.
