Question 4
A storage administrator wants to configure a snapshot in a ZFS Storage Appliance.
Which action must the administrator perform to ensure application consistency?
Schedule snapshots to occur at a specific time each day.
Quiesce, sync, or shut down the application and then take a snapshot of the master LUN.
Quiesce, sync, or shut down the application before taking a snapshot of the project defined for the application.
Schedule project snapshots to occur periodically. This way, the storage administrator is sure to get all open files by the end of the day.
Correct answer: D
Explanation:
Scheduling Snapshots. Automatic snapshots can be taken half-hourly, hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly and are named. Automatic snapshots can be set on a project or a share, but not both. Otherwise, overlapping schedules and retention policies would make it impossible to guarantee both schedules. References: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E78901_01/html/E78912/gprhe.html
