Dell EMC Specialist – Systems Administrator, PowerEdge Server — Question 58
A TimeFinder SnapVX snapshot of source volumes has been linked to target volumes. The target volumes are being used for application testing.
What should be done prior to a relink operation?
Answer options
- A. Continue accessing the source volumes; stop accessing the target volumes
- B. Stop accessing the source volumes; continue accessing the target volumes
- C. Continue accessing the source and target volumes
- D. Stop accessing the source and target volumes
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is A because, prior to a relink, the source volumes should remain accessible while the target volumes must be stopped to ensure data consistency. Options B and C suggest continued access to the target volumes, which could lead to data inconsistency, while option D suggests stopping access to both, which is unnecessary and inefficient.
