   An administrator is troubleshooting a data protection issue on a PowerScale cluster. The administrator runs `isi get protection /data/critical` and sees the output: `Protection: +1d:1n (requested +2d:1n)`. What is the most likely reason for the actual protection level being lower than requested?

   • AThe cluster has enough nodes, but the data was written when the cluster was in a degraded state.
   • BThe `isi get protection` command is showing the suggested level, not the actual level.
   • CThe requested protection level was changed after the data was written, and the system did not re-protect the data.
   • DThe cluster does not have enough nodes to support the requested protection level, so the system applied a lower level.

   An administrator needs to verify the actual protection level of a file after a cluster reconfiguration. The administrator previously set a requested protection level of +2d:1n for the file. After the reconfiguration, the administrator runs `isi get protection /data/file.dat` and sees the output: `Protection: +1d:1n (requested +2d:1n)`. What should the administrator do next?

   • ACheck the cluster configuration to determine why the requested level could not be applied.
   • BRe-run the command to confirm the output is correct.
   • CRebuild the file to force the system to apply the requested protection level.
   • DChange the requested protection level to +1d:1n to match the actual level.

   A research institution has a PowerScale cluster with 5 nodes. An administrator sets a requested protection level of +4d:1n for a new dataset. After writing the data, the administrator checks the actual protection level and finds it is +3d:1n. What is the most likely explanation?

   • AThe requested protection level +4d:1n requires 5 nodes, but the cluster only has 5 nodes, so it should have been applied.
   • BThe actual protection level is always one level lower than requested to maintain performance.
   • CThe system applied the suggested protection level because the requested level was not supported by the cluster configuration.
   • DThe administrator made an error in the command syntax, and the system defaulted to +3d:1n.
