   A system administrator is troubleshooting a user's inability to access their home directory on a PowerScale cluster. The user's home directory is configured to be /ifs/home/jsmith. The administrator checks the OneFS directory structure and finds that /ifs/home exists but /ifs/home/jsmith does not. The user's account is correctly configured in the access zone. What is the most likely reason the user cannot access their home directory?

   • AThe /ifs/home directory has incorrect permissions that prevent the user from traversing it.
   • BThe base directory is set to /ifs/home, but the user's home directory has not been created yet.
   • CThe user's home directory is configured in a different access zone.
   • DThe OneFS directory structure does not support user home directories under /ifs/home.
