Dell EMC Specialist – Systems Administrator, Elastic Cloud Storage — Question 80

What is the component state when vSAN detects a permanent failure and assumes that the component is not going to recover?

Answer options

• A. Stale
• B. Degraded
• C. Error
• D. Absent

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is 'Absent' because it indicates that vSAN recognizes the component as permanently failed and not returning. 'Stale', 'Degraded', and 'Error' represent different conditions that do not imply a total and irreversible failure.
