A customer is testing a newly installed NetApp AFF A400 all-flash HA storage system. An SVM for FCP with a LUN on Node 1 has been configured, and a server has been connected as shown in the exhibit. For testing, the engineer plans to do a storage failover of Node 1.
After the failover, what is the expected status of the marked path?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

In the scenario where a storage failover is performed on Node 1 in an HA pair, the path marked in the exhibit would becomeActive/Nonoptimized. After the failover, the LIFs from Node 1 that were activeand optimized will switch to Node 2. Paths that were previously optimized will become nonoptimized because they are now served through the partner node.
