350-601 Compute Practice Question

A UCS B-Series chassis has four IOM modules installed. The chassis is connected to two Fabric Interconnects. How many uplink connections are typically used from each IOM to the Fabric Interconnects to ensure full bandwidth redundancy?

Answer choices

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

✓

Two uplinks per IOM to each FI

Each IOM has four uplink ports (two per fabric). To achieve full bandwidth and redundancy, typically all four uplinks are used (two to FI-A and two to FI-B).

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • ✗

    One uplink from the chassis to each FI

    Why it's wrong here

    This would not provide the required bandwidth for multiple blades.

  • ✗

    Four uplinks per IOM to a single FI

    Why it's wrong here

    Connecting all uplinks to one FI would create a single point of failure.

  • ✗

    One uplink per IOM to each FI

    Why it's wrong here

    Using one uplink per IOM to each FI would provide connectivity but not full bandwidth utilization of the IOM.

  • ✓

    Two uplinks per IOM to each FI

    Why this is correct

    Each IOM has four ports, typically two are connected to FI-A and two to FI-B, ensuring full bandwidth and redundancy.
