What is an array LUN?

Answer options

• A. a LUN provisioned in ONTAP that is mounted by a connected host
• B. a LUN provisioned on third-party storage that ONTAP will use as a passthrough LUN
• C. a LUN that is used only as a part of a volume group
• D. a LUN provisioned on third-party storage that ONTAP will use in a RAID group

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer, A, describes an array LUN as one that is provisioned in ONTAP and is accessible by a host. Option B incorrectly describes it as a passthrough LUN, which is not the primary function of an array LUN. Option C limits the usage of a LUN, and option D incorrectly associates it with RAID groups, which is not characteristic of an array LUN.
