Question

You are the network administrator for westsim.com. The network consists of a single Active Directory domain. The network contains three Windows servers named FS1, FS2, and FS3. These servers are used for storing files in shared folders. You want to implement failover clustering to make these servers highly available for your users, so you have installed the Failover Clustering feature on each server. You are using Storage Spaces Direct (SSD) to set up the shared storage for the cluster, so you install new SATA hard drives in each server and leave them blank, offline, and uninitialized.

You used PowerShell cmdlets to verify that the new drives can be added to an SSD pool, and then you created a cluster named FileServ with FS1, FS2, and FS3 as the cluster nodes.
From the drop-down list, select the cmdlet you would now enter to enable SSD on the FileServ cluster.

Answer 1

To enable SSD on the FileServ cluster, use the Add-ClusterScaleOutFileServerRole cmdlet in PowerShell.

Step-by-step explanation:

To enable SSD on the FileServ cluster, you would use the Add-ClusterScaleOutFileServerRole cmdlet in PowerShell. This cmdlet is used to create a clustered file server role, which enables file shares on the cluster nodes.

The cluster will be set up to use the SSD storage pool you created with the new SATA hard drives in FS1, FS2, and FS3. Run this cmdlet. By activating SSD, shared storage can have high availability and fault tolerance, ensuring that files stored in shared folders can be accessed even if one or more cluster servers fail.
