ASM-disk-group-2 (exhibit):

A.
Because the disk group is created with NORMAL redundancy

B.
Because the disk repair time attribute is set to a nonzero value

C.
Because the mirrored extents cannot be rebalanced across the other three disks

D.
Because the other three disks have 60% free space, the disk rebalancing is delayed

Explanation:
Key points:
1. The COMPATIBILITY.ASM>=11.1 and COMPATIBILITY.RDBMS>=11.1
2. The DISK_REPAIR_TIME is set to non-zero. by default it is 3.6hr.
Refer to here.
Note: To use this feature, the disk group compatibility attributes must be set to 11.1 or
higher. For more information, refer to “Disk Group Compatibility”.
Oracle ASM fast resync keeps track of pending changes to extents on an OFFLINE disk
during an outage. The extents are resynced when the disk is brought back online.
By default, Oracle ASM drops a disk in 3.6 hours after it is taken offline. You can set the
DISK_REPAIR_TIME disk group attribute to delay the drop operation by specifying a time
interval to repair the disk and bring it back online.

However the explanation says …
Note: To use this feature …

… which feature is that then?
What “ASM fast resync”? Where exactly in the question is “ASM fast resync” mentioned?
