What actions can be taken as part of post-installation tasks in PowerFlex? (Choose two)

Question

Options

• AConfigure protection domains
• BAssign VLANs to nodes
• CEnable fault sets
• DDefine replication targets

• A
  86% (25)
• B
  3% (1)
• D
  10% (3)

Explanation

Configuring protection domains (A) and enabling fault sets (C) are both post-installation tasks in PowerFlex because they require the base system to already be deployed before they can be logically defined - protection domains group SDS nodes into isolated fault boundaries, and fault sets subdivide those domains for rack-level redundancy, both of which are configured after the core installation is complete.

Option B (Assign VLANs to nodes) is wrong because VLAN assignment is a pre-installation or installation-time network configuration step, not something performed after PowerFlex is stood up. Option D (Define replication targets) is a separate replication setup task that occurs in a distinct workflow outside of standard post-installation steps, and requires fully operational systems on both sides before it's relevant.

Memory tip: Think "Post = Protection & Fault" - both start with letters that sound like "protection," and both are about defining how the system tolerates failure, which you can only logically set up after the hardware is installed and nodes are recognized by the system.
