What actions can administrators perform to manage PowerFlex shared file systems? (Choose two)

Question

Options

• AAssign file systems to fault sets
• BEnable data access for multiple nodes
• CConfigure snapshots for shared file systems
• DDeduplicate shared file system data

• B

• D
  4% (1)

Explanation

Managing PowerFlex shared file systems centers on access control and data protection: administrators can enable data access for multiple nodes (B) because shared file systems are designed for concurrent multi-node access, and enabling/managing this access is a core administrative function. Configuring snapshots (C) is a fundamental data protection task that allows point-in-time copies of shared file system data for backup and recovery purposes.

A is incorrect because fault sets are a PowerFlex block storage concept used to group protection domain components - they are not a mechanism applied to file systems. D is incorrect because deduplication is not a supported administrative action for PowerFlex shared file systems; deduplication applies to block storage volumes, not the file system layer.

Memory tip: Think "shared file = Share + Snap" - Share the file system with multiple nodes (B) and Snap a snapshot to protect it (C). Both actions operate at the file system level, while the distractors (fault sets, deduplication) belong to the block storage world.
