Question

You have a failover cluster named Cluster1 with nodes Node1, Node2, and Node3, all configured as File Servers. A File Server for general use cluster role named HAFS is configured, with Node1 as the current owner. For each statement, determine if it is true or false. Statement 3: If you select Move, Select Node, and then Node2, HAFS will move to Node2.

Why each option

A cluster role can only be moved to a node that is configured as a "possible owner" for that specific role.

AYes

A manual move operation to a specific node only succeeds if the target node is a valid "possible owner" for the cluster role and is in a healthy state to host the role.

BNoCorrect

If Node2 is not included in HAFS's "Possible Owners" list, or if Node2 is in a state preventing it from hosting the role (e.g., paused, failed), the manual move operation would fail. The question does not explicitly state Node2 is a possible owner for HAFS.
