Why each option

To ensure power redundancy in a Fibre Channel SAN, it is critical to implement adequate division of circuits, providing independent power feeds to all essential SAN components.

AMultiple HBAs

Multiple HBAs provide path redundancy from servers to storage, not power redundancy for the SAN infrastructure itself.

BAdequate division of circuitsCorrect

Adequate division of circuits means providing separate and independent power sources and distribution paths to critical SAN components like FC switches and storage arrays, preventing a single power failure from disrupting the entire fabric.

CReplication

Replication provides data redundancy and disaster recovery capabilities, but does not address the physical power supply redundancy of SAN components.

DMultiple FC switches

Multiple FC switches provide fabric redundancy and load balancing within the SAN, but they still require independent and redundant power sources to ensure continuous operation.
