Which of the following statements is true of SAN devices? SAN devices are the same as network-attached storage. SAN devices use SAN protocols to manage and format filesystems. SAN devices use hardware RAID externally to provide fault tolerance for the storage device that they contain. SAN devices are functionally like an external USB drive.

SAN devices are functionally like an external USB drive.

Rishab is looking for ways to manage duplicate file content on his organization's shared drive. He enables data deduplication for this purpose. To save computing resources, he wants to change the settings such that data deduplication occurs in the evening. What must Rishab do to make this change? Enter the file extensions to be excluded Click the Add button under Deduplication Settings Click Set Deduplication Schedule Select the Apply button under Deduplication Settings

Click Set Deduplication Schedule

You are asked to create seven partitions in a storage device that uses an MBR. The device already has two partitions. However, you are also told that you cannot create more than a certain number of partitions on the storage device using an MBR. What would your next step be? Use the drive letters A and B to label the partitions Create the partitions and label one of the partitions as extended Use a storage device that is more than 7 TB in size and uses an MBR Convert the device to GPT

Create the partitions and label one of the partitions as extended

Merjem, a PhD student, is writing her thesis. She takes regular backup of her files and data. When taking backup, she chooses the Faster backup performance option in the Optimize Backup Performance window. Which of the following is true of the backup process in the given scenario? Every backup overwrites the previous backup. Every backup only backs up data that has been modified since the previous backup. The backup process will provide the fastest option at the time of restoring data. The backup process backs up the all the specified data every time.

Every backup only backs up data that has been modified since the previous backup.

Gabriela attempts to create a virtual disk on a storage pool using Server Manager. However, she is unable to select the Create storage tiers on this virtual disk option. Why do you think she is not able to use the option? She enters the wrong virtual disk name. She is not using the New Virtual Disk Wizard. The system uses an SSD and not an HDD. The storage spool does not have sufficient space

The system uses an SSD and not an HDD.

Which of the following is a term given to the software component in the operating system that connects to the SAN device via iSCSI? iSCSI target iSCSI initiator HBA MPIO

iSCSI initiator

How much storage space is reserved on a storage device to convert a storage disk to a dynamic disk using a Windows tool? 1 KB 10 KB 1 MB 10 MB

1 MB

Sonia is configuring a RAID level 5 array with five disks. Each disk has the capacity to store 3 TB of data. What is the total storage size that Sonia can use to store data? 3 TB 8 TB 12 TB 15 TB

12 TB

Tara, an administrator, has added storage devices to the storage pool and selected the RAID level for the virtual disk using Server Manager. She wishes to allocate more space than is required for the current amount of data such that the system only uses the actual space it needs, enabling the actual size to grow with data. What would you do to achieve Tara's wish? Create several thin-provisioned virtual disks Create several thick-provisioned virtual disks Create several fixed-provisioned virtual disks of combined capacity smaller than the storage pool Create several virtual disks of combined capacity smaller than the storage pool

Create several thin-provisioned virtual disks

Imran is associating a drive letter to a filesystem so that the drive letter can be accessed by the operating system. What is the term given to the process that Imran is carrying out? Journaling Formatting Mounting Spanning

Mounting

While copying files between folders, it is possible to retrace and complete the transfer in case of a power failure if an NTFS-based filesystem is being used. The same cannot be said for a FAT32 filesystem. What do you think could be the reason for this difference? NTFS is a filesystem, while FAT32 is not. FAT32 keeps track of information being written, while NTFS does not. FAT32 is only used as a removable device, while NTFS is not. NTFS is a journaling filesystem, while FAT32 is not.

NTFS is a journaling filesystem, while FAT32 is not.

Rebecca is configuring a RAID with three storage devices. If she saves a file, the file will be divided into three sections, with each section written to separate storage devices concurrently, in a third of the amount of time it would take to save the entire file on one storage device. Which of the following RAID levels is Rebecca configuring? RAID level 0 RAID level 1 RAID level 2 RAID level 5

RAID level 0

One of the disks on your computer is running low on storage space. You notice that there is unallocated space in the spanned volume. How will you use the unallocated space to increase storage space? Right-click the volume, click Reactivate Volume once the storage device is available, and use the unallocated space Right-click the volume on that disk and click Extend Volume to increase the size of the volume using the unallocated space Right-click a RAID level 1 volume and click Remove Mirror to remove the volume while retaining the data from one disk you specify Right-click the system or boot partition in the Disk Management tool, click Add Mirror, and select the second storage device

Right-click the volume on that disk and click Extend Volume to increase the size of the volume using the unallocated space

Pablo is a system administrator in training. He is trying to manually defragment the F: volume in Becky's system. Help Pablo identify the correct method to perform manual defragmentation. Right-click the volume, click Properties, highlight the Tools tab, and click the Optimize button. Right-click the volume, click Properties, highlight the Tools tab, and click the Check button. Write the "Repair-Volume-DriveLetter F -Scan" command in Windows PowerShell. Write the "Optimize-Volume -DriveLetter" command in Windows PowerShell.

Right-click the volume, click Properties, highlight the Tools tab, and click the Optimize button.

Identify the option that can be used to create storage pools that include storage devices from different servers on a network. Storage Spaces Direct A combination of hard disks and SDDs A thin-provisioning virtual disk The primordial storage pool

Nadia uses the Disk Management tool to create a simple volume in one of the disks. She specifies the simple volume size and chooses a drive letter. While selecting the formatting options, she modifies the default allocation unit size. What will happen if the allocation unit size is large? The performance of file sharing applications will increase. The performance of database applications will increase. The performance of file sharing applications will decrease. The performance of database applications will decrease.
