CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-003) — Question 253
An administrator recently provisioned a file server in the cloud. Based on financial considerations, the administrator has a limited amount of disk space. Which of the following will help control the amount of space that is being used?
Answer options
- A. Thick provisioning
- B. Software-defined storage
- C. User quotas
- D. Network file system
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is C, User quotas, as they allow the administrator to limit the amount of disk space each user can consume, effectively managing overall storage usage. Thick provisioning (A) allocates the full amount of disk space upfront, which does not help with space management. Software-defined storage (B) provides more flexibility in storage management but does not inherently limit space per user. A Network file system (D) primarily facilitates file sharing over a network and does not control user disk usage.
