Dell EMC Associate – Cloud Infrastructure and Services v3 — Question 5

A compute system is configured to access files from a network-attached storage system. What is a characteristic of the file system?

Answer options

• A. Managed by the object-based storage device node
• B. Managed by the compute system
• C. Managed by the storage system
• D. Part of the storage area network

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because in a network-attached storage system, the file system is typically managed by the storage system itself, allowing for centralized file management. Option A is incorrect as it refers to object-based storage, which is not applicable here. Option B is wrong because the compute system relies on the storage system for file access, and option D is misleading as it describes a broader network structure rather than the specific management of the file system.
