Explanation

On a PowerStore file system, thin clones (A) allow space-efficient copies that share blocks with the parent, renaming/modifying the name (B) is a basic management operation available directly on the file system object, and NDMP backup (E) can be configured at the file system level to enable tape-based backup via a Data Mover.

C (Configure CEPA) is incorrect because CEPA (Common Event Publishing Agent) - used for antivirus and audit event publishing - is configured at the NAS server level, not the individual file system. D (Move between NAS servers) is incorrect because file systems in PowerStore are bound to their NAS server and cannot be migrated between NAS servers through a simple "move" operation.

Memory tip: Think "ABE = Always Belongs (to) Everything a file system owns." CEPA and NAS-server moves are server-level concerns - if the action affects the whole NAS server rather than one file system, it's not a file system setting.
