EMC Proven Professional – PowerMax Specialist — Question 45

A storage administrator needs to shrink their FAST Cache. The current configuration consists of eight 200 GB SAS Flash 2 drives.
What is the maximum number of drives that can be removed from FAST Cache through an online shrink operation?

Answer options

• A. 2
• B. 4
• C. 6
• D. 8

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because the system allows the removal of all drives during an online shrink operation, effectively permitting the complete reduction of the FAST Cache. The other options suggest fewer drives can be removed, which does not align with the maximum capability of the online shrink process.
