A storage administrator needs to provide writable copies of a large production volume to multiple development teams. Each team requires a separate copy, and the copies will be heavily modified. The administrator is concerned about storage consumption and performance. Which approach best addresses both concerns?

Create a full copy for each team

Create one thin clone and share it among all teams

Create a thin clone for each team

What is a potential impact of refreshing a thin clone on system performance?

It requires the clone to be unmounted from all hosts.

It permanently reduces the performance of the source volume.

It can cause a temporary increase in I/O load as data is copied from the source to the clone.

No impact, as refresh is a metadata-only operation.

A team has a thin clone that is used for nightly reporting. The source volume is updated frequently. The team wants the clone to reflect the latest source data each night without manual intervention. What should the administrator configure?

A snapshot of the clone each night

A scheduled refresh of the thin clone from the source

A scheduled deletion and recreation of the clone

An administrator is creating a thin clone via the PowerStore REST API. The API call returns an error indicating that the clone name already exists. What should the administrator do?

Use a different name for the clone

Delete the existing clone with that name
