What is the purpose of setting an 'alias' for a multipath device in /etc/multipath.conf?

To increase the performance of the multipath device

To automatically mount the device at boot

To enable encryption on the device

To provide a persistent and human-friendly name for the device

A cluster administrator is setting up a new Pacemaker cluster with clustered LVM. They have created a clustered volume group and want to ensure that it is automatically activated on all nodes when the cluster starts. Which configuration is required?

Add a systemd service to activate the VG on each node at boot.

Use 'vgchange -a y' manually on each node after the cluster starts.

Create a Pacemaker clone resource for clvmd and configure the VG to be activated by the clvmd resource agent.

Set the 'auto_activation' flag in lvm.conf to 1.

In a Pacemaker cluster, why is it important to configure resource ordering between DLM and clustered LVM resources?

To ensure clustered LVM starts before DLM, because DLM depends on LVM

To ensure fencing is configured before DLM starts

To ensure both start simultaneously to avoid conflicts

To ensure DLM starts before clustered LVM, because LVM depends on DLM for locking
