Which two statements are true of PowerStore File Migration import? (Choose two.)

Question

Options

• APS arrays are supported with PowerPath.
• BBoth SMB and NFS are supported, but cannot be mixed.
• CVNX2 arrays are supported with VDM.
• DSnapshots and snapshot schedules are migrated
• EThe source file system can be a replica.

• A
  4% (2)
• B
  79% (41)
• D
  6% (3)
• E
  12% (6)

Explanation

PowerStore File Migration supports both SMB and NFS protocols (B), but each migration session must use one protocol type - you cannot mix SMB and NFS file systems in the same import job. VNX2 arrays are a supported source platform (C), and their VDMs (Virtual Data Movers) map directly to PowerStore NAS servers during migration, making VDM-based migrations a key use case.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A is wrong because PowerPath is a block storage multipathing solution - it has no role in file (NAS) migration workflows.
• D is wrong because snapshots and snapshot schedules are not carried over; only active production data is migrated.
• E is wrong because the source must be the primary (active) file system - replica/secondary copies cannot serve as the migration source.

Memory tip: Think "VNX2 + VDM = valid combo" (alliteration helps), and for protocol support remember "both yes, but never both together" - SMB or NFS, never mixed in one job.
