EMC Proven Professional – Isilon Specialist — Question 3

What would the RDF device and Link states be after an SRDF Update operation?

Answer options

• A. R1=WD; Link=RW; R2=RW
• B. R1=RW; Link=RW; R2=WD
• C. R1=RW; Link=NR; R2=RW
• D. R1=WD; Link=NR; R2=RW

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because, after an SRDF Update operation, the primary device (R1) is marked as Read Write (RW), the link is also in Read Write (RW) status, indicating it is active and synchronized, while the secondary device (R2) is in Write Disabled (WD) mode, preventing writes. The other options incorrectly indicate the states of the devices and link following the operation.
