QuestionQ57

Analyze and Optimize Storage Performance

A customer with a four-node RF2 cluster is adding application VMs to its system. After these VMs are added, the Prism dashboard reports 81% storage utilization.

What is the consequence of operating the cluster at 81% storage utilization?

  • A The customer has the ability to add more VMs up to the 100% storage utilization.
  • B There is available capacity in the storage fabric and the cluster is resilient.
  • C Node failure is imminent due to storage utilization.
  • D The cluster is not resilient in the storage fabric
Explanation

RF2 maintains two copies of data and needs free capacity across the remaining nodes to rebuild and restore the required replication factor after a node failure. At 81% utilization in this four-node configuration, the storage-fabric resiliency threshold has been exceeded, so the cluster is not resilient.
