Huawei Certified ICT Associate – Storage (HCIA-Storage) — Question 45

Which of the following items is NOT mandatory in a Fibre Channel SAN? (Choose all that apply.)

Answer options

• A. Windows operating system
• B. Storage device
• C. Fibre Channel switch
• D. Fibre Channel HBA

Correct answer: A, C

Explanation

The Windows operating system is not a requirement for a Fibre Channel SAN, as various operating systems can be used. Similarly, while a Fibre Channel switch can enhance the SAN's performance and scalability, it is not absolutely necessary for a functioning Fibre Channel SAN, unlike the storage device and Fibre Channel HBA, which are essential components.
