Common Questions About the EMC D-XTR-DS-A-24 Exam

What is the EMC Dell XtremIO Design Achievement exam all about?

The D-XTR-DS-A-24 exam is the official Dell EMC exam behind the Storage Administrator certification, validating the skills measured by the EMC Dell XtremIO Design Achievement credential. It sits at the Achievement level of the Dell EMC certification program. It also connects to Dell XtremIO Operate Achievement (D-XTR-OE-A-24), Dell XtremIO Maintenance Achievement (D-XTR-MN-A-24), Dell XtremIO Deploy Achievement (D-XTR-DY-A-24), so the knowledge you build here carries over to those tracks as well.

How many questions are on the D-XTR-DS-A-24 exam, and how much time do I get?

The D-XTR-DS-A-24 exam contains 60 questions to be completed within 90 minutes. Before exam day, divide the available time by the question count to work out a comfortable per-question pace, and mark any item that eats into it so you can return later instead of getting stuck. Timed sessions in the Getcertkey test engines make that pacing automatic — run at least two full-length mock exams under the clock so time pressure never becomes the reason you drop points.

Are there any prerequisites for the D-XTR-DS-A-24 exam?

No formal prerequisites listed; knowledge of XtremIO/X2 storage systems recommended Requirements can change when Dell EMC revises its certification program, so confirm the current eligibility rules on the official exam page before you register.
