NSE 5 – FortiAnalyzer 6.2 — Question 17

On the RAID management page, the disk status is listed as Initializing.
What does the status Initializing indicate about what the FortiAnalyzer is currently doing?

Answer options

• A. FortiAnalyzer is ensuring that the parity data of a redundant drive is valid
• B. FortiAnalyzer is writing data to a newly added hard drive to restore it to an optimal state
• C. FortiAnalyzer is writing to all of its hard drives to make the array fault tolerant
• D. FortiAnalyzer is functioning normally

Correct answer:

Explanation

The status 'Initializing' indicates that the FortiAnalyzer is in the process of writing data to a newly added hard drive, which is necessary to restore it to an optimal state. The other options are incorrect as they refer to different processes: verifying parity data, writing to all drives for fault tolerance, and normal operation, none of which describe the 'Initializing' state.
