Question
A customer requires a solution providing a Network Attached Storage (NAS) environment. The environment must allow clients to continue to work uninterrupted during a failure of any of the NAS file server cluster nodes. Which feature of an HP StoreEasy solution supports automatic multiple network pathing and aggregates bandwidth?
Options
- AHosted Branch Cache
- BSingle instance Storage (SIS)
- CFile Server Resource Manager (FSRM)
- DServer Message Block (SMB) v3

Why each option
SMB v3 introduced Multichannel, which enables automatic use of multiple network paths simultaneously and aggregates their bandwidth, ensuring continuity during node failures.
Hosted BranchCache is a WAN optimization feature that caches content at branch offices to reduce bandwidth consumption, not a network pathing or aggregation technology.
Single Instance Storage (SIS) is a data deduplication technique that eliminates redundant file copies on disk to save storage capacity, unrelated to network connectivity.
File Server Resource Manager (FSRM) is a role service for managing storage quotas, file screening, and storage reports, with no role in network path management.
SMB v3 includes the Multichannel feature, which automatically discovers and uses multiple network connections between a client and server. This provides both bandwidth aggregation and fault tolerance, so clients remain uninterrupted if a cluster node or network path fails.
