QuestionQ23

Analyze and Optimize Storage Performance

A Nutanix cluster is deployed with the following configuration:

  • Three four-node blocks: A, B, and C
  • All Flash Redundancy Factor 2

What is the impact of simultaneous disk failures on two nodes in block A?

Explanation

RF2 block awareness distributes redundant data copies across separate blocks when at least three blocks are available. Therefore, two disk failures confined to block A do not remove both copies of VM data, and VM read and write I/O continues normally.
