Question 95

An administrator has a 3-node cluster and needs to enable Erasure coding on a container.

Which action must the administrator take before enabling this feature?

    Correct Answer: C

    To enable Erasure coding on a container, the administrator must ensure the cluster has a minimum of 4 nodes. This requirement is due to the way Erasure coding distributes data and parity information across the nodes to ensure data protection and fault tolerance. With only 3 nodes in the current setup, adding a 4th node is necessary before this feature can be enabled.
