You work as a senior administrator at ABC.com. The ABC.com network consists of a single
domain named ABC.com. All servers on the ABC.com network have Windows Server 2012
installed.
You are running a training exercise for junior administrators. You are currently discussing Storage
Spaces.
Which of the following is TRUE with regards to Storage Spaces?
A.
Mirroring and parity are optional resilient storage modes of Storage Spaces.
B.
Failover clustering is not supported by Storage Spaces.
C.
Storage spaces are virtual disks with associated attributes such as a preferred level of
resiliency, and thin or fixed provisioning.
D.
Storage spaces are a collection of physical disks with associated attributes such as a preferred
level of resiliency, and thin or fixed provisioning.
Storage Spaces can do mirroring, 3-way mirroring, and parity (similar to RAID 5); each choice is optional as no resiliency option is required to use Storage Spaces for virtual storage.
Failover clustering is supported, but all assigned drives must support a multi-initiator protocol (such as SAS).
Storage Spaces are virtual disks (created on any number of physical disks) with options for resiliency (mirroring, 3-way mirroring, parity, and/or clustering), thin/think provisioning.
Storage Spaces are NOT a collection of physical disks, but Storage Spaces utilize one or more physical disks to create virtual disks (Which are then referred to as Storage Spaces).
When MS talks about Storage Spaces they mean SW(VOLUME(s)) Storage Spaces.
REMEMBER that you can NOT associate VIRTUAL attributes to HW. The ONLY thing associated to HW are SMB(Basic), GPTE(Dynamic) and GUIDS (one per physical disk)
thanks a lot justin for guidance..
