A cluster has RF2. The cluster loses two drives on different nodes in the same storage tier.
What is the effect on the replicas of the VMs?

What is the effect on the replicas of the VMs?
In a cluster with RF2 (Replication Factor 2), the system is designed to tolerate the failure of one component (e.g., a drive or node) without data loss. If a second drive fails on a different node before the cluster has had time to rebuild (heal) the lost data, there is a risk of data loss. Therefore, some VM data may be lost in the described scenario.
Your example is pointing to a post, however the courseware says but if you remember the training, it says in RF2, losing a second drive in another node before the cluster heals "can result in some VM data loss"
A = Some VM data "may" be lost. "A" matched courseware info on RF2 where it states losing a second drive in another node before the node heals "can result in some VM data loss"
A is the correct answer

A is correct
A is correct, there may be some lost of data.
For RF-2, we have FT-1, meaning it can sustain a single simultaneous failure. In that case. one disk or node can fail and there will be no impact to VM data or cluster operation. But, for 2 simultaneous failure it will loose some VM data. Hence, A should be correct.
In a cluster with RF2 losing a second drive in a different domain (node, block, or fack) before the cluster heals can result in some VM data loss to both replicas. So the e correct option is A.

If the two disks that failed happen to have pri/ sec copies of VM data then data loss will occur. I vote A.
I'm still confused what the correct answer would be!
A is correct, there may be some lost of data.
