Question
Which two cache partition management functions would a storage manager perform to improve storage performance? (Choose two.)

Explanation
Cache partition management involves dividing cache into dedicated sections to optimize performance - options B and C are correct because they directly describe this function: dedicating cache partitions to specific applications (C) prevents resource contention and ensures predictable performance, while adjusting those allocations in response to business changes (B) allows administrators to dynamically reallocate cache as workload priorities shift.
Option A is wrong because virtualizing heterogeneous storage resources is a storage virtualization function - it abstracts physical storage into logical pools, which is unrelated to managing cache partitions.
Option D is wrong because duplicating resources within cache describes mirroring or replication, which is a data protection strategy, not a cache partition management technique.
Memory tip: Think of cache partition management as "Dedicate and Adjust" - you Dedicate slices of cache to apps (C) and Adjust those slices as needs evolve (B). Both actions operate within an existing cache, whereas A and D involve creating new storage resources or structures.
