CompTIA Server+ (SK0-005) — Question 85
A technician has been asked to check on a SAN. Upon arrival, the technician notices the red LED indicator shows a disk has failed. Which of the following should the technician do NEXT, given the disk is hot swappable?
Answer options
- A. Stop sharing the volume
- B. Replace the disk
- C. Shut down the SAN
- D. Stop all connections to the volume
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct action is to replace the disk since it is hot swappable, allowing the technician to do so without shutting down the SAN. Stopping sharing the volume, shutting down the SAN, or stopping all connections to the volume are unnecessary steps when the disk can be replaced without disruption.
