NS0-163 Exam - Question 49


Which two conditions would prevent an ONTAP upgrade? (Choose two.)

Show Answer
Correct Answer: BE

An ONTAP upgrade would be prevented in the case of an offline volume and a failed disk. If a volume is offline, it means that it is not accessible, which would unnecessarily complicate or disrupt the upgrade process. A failed disk can lead to data integrity issues, and it is crucial to resolve disk failures prior to performing an upgrade to ensure the stability and reliability of the system.

Another tricky question, because if you google offline LIF, offline volume and failed disk as reasons for preventing an ONTAP upgrade, it states all 3 will prevent the upgrade.
