VMware App Volumes Specialist (2021) — Question 76

An administrator has changed the Virtual Machine Storage Policy from RAID-5 to RAID-6.

How many failures can be tolerated when this change is made?

Answer options

• A. 3
• B. 4
• C. 2
• D. 5

Correct answer: C

Explanation

RAID-6 can tolerate two simultaneous drive failures, which is why option C is the correct answer. In contrast, RAID-5 only allows for one drive failure, making options A, B, and D incorrect as they exceed the tolerance level for RAID-6.
