Dell Technologies Proven Professional – PowerStore — Question 17

An administrator is attempting to create a protection policy while creating an SMB share however the option is not available.
What is the reason?

Answer options

• A. The protection policy has been previously associated with a file system
• B. The protection policy must be created before associating it with the volume resource
• C. The protection policy must be created before associating it with the file system
• D. The protection policy is only available with file level retention enabled

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because the protection policy must be created before it can be associated with a file system for it to be effective. Options A and B are incorrect as they misrepresent the order of operations regarding the association of protection policies. Option D is misleading because it implies a limitation that does not affect the creation of a policy itself.
