EMC Proven Professional – PowerMax Specialist — Question 10
A file system is 1 TB in size and contains 250 GB of data. The file system is not fully allocated and only 450 GB of pool storage is in use. The user wants to reduce the file system to 300 GB.
How much space is returned to the storage pool?
Answer options
- A. 150 GB
- B. 450 GB
- C. 700 GB
- D. 750 GB
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The file system will be reduced from 250 GB to 300 GB, which means it will retain 300 GB of data and return the difference of 150 GB to the storage pool. The other options do not account for the correct calculation of how much data remains and how much is freed up.
