A PowerStore cluster generated a major alert regarding an appliance running out of space. What does this alert indicate?

Question

Options

• AUsed capacity is above 80%
• BUsed capacity is above 90%
• CForecast time to full is 14 days or less
• DForecast time to full is 28 days or less

• A
  3% (1)
• B
  3% (1)
• C
  86% (25)
• D
  7% (2)

Explanation

A major alert on PowerStore triggers when the forecast time to full drops to 14 days or less - this is a predictive, time-based threshold, not a raw capacity percentage. Options A (80%) and B (90%) describe percentage-based thresholds: 80% typically corresponds to a warning alert, and 90% to a critical alert, but neither is the trigger for the "major" alert classification tied to forecasting. Option D (28 days) is the threshold for a minor alert, which fires earlier to give teams more lead time. The key distinction is that PowerStore's alerting system uses both capacity percentages and time-based forecasts, and the 14-day forecast boundary specifically maps to the major severity level.

Memory tip: Think "14 days = major urgency" - two weeks is close enough to panic, but 28 days (minor) still gives you a month to act. The further away the deadline, the lower the severity.
