You have four servers named Server 1, Server2, Server3 and Server4 that run Windows Server
2016. Each server has a single 4-TB SATA hard disk. To each server, you attach a new 4 TB SATA
hard disk. You need to create a new storage cluster that uses Storage Spaces Direct. The storage
pool must contain all of the new disks. Which command should you run before you enable Storage
Space Direct?
A.
Add-ClusterSharedVolume -Name “Disk 1” -Cluster Cluster 1
B.
New-Cluster -Name Clusterl -Node ‘Server1’, Server2, Server3, Server4 -NoStorage
C.
Get-ClusterAvailableDisk -Cluster Clusterl | Add-ClusterDisk
D.
New-ClustcrStorageEnclosure -id 1 -name Cluster 1 -type jbod -ConnectionString Server1, Server2, Server3,
Server4
Answer is B.
New-Cluster is used to create a new cluster. The –NoStorage parameter is important to be added to the cmdlet, otherwise disks may be automatically added to the cluster and you will need to remove them before enabling Storage Spaces Direct otherwise they will not be included in the Storage Spaces Direct storage pool.
