The aggregate relocation feature allows an administrator to move a __________.

The correct answer is C. Data aggregate to the HA partner. Aggregate relocation (ARL) moves a data aggregate between the two nodes of an HA pair, not across arbitrary nodes in the cluster.

Why each option

Aggregate relocation (ARL) moves a data aggregate between the two nodes of an HA pair, not across arbitrary nodes in the cluster.

AData aggregate to any node

Data aggregates can only be relocated to the HA partner, not to any arbitrary node in the cluster, because ARL depends on shared shelf access within the HA pair.

BRoot aggregate to any node

Root aggregates cannot be relocated using ARL; only data aggregates support this operation.

CData aggregate to the HA partnerCorrect

Aggregate relocation is an HA-pair-scoped operation that transfers ownership of a data aggregate from one node to its HA partner without a full failover. This is used during non-disruptive upgrades and maintenance, and the target is always constrained to the local HA partner because ARL relies on shared disk shelf connectivity within that pair.

DRoot aggregate to the HA partner

Root aggregates are excluded from aggregate relocation entirely; only data aggregates can be moved, even within an HA pair.
