Correct Answer:
B
The Maximum failures setting is used to determine when the cluster determines that a node is offline. It does not affect whether a cluster will fail back when a node comes online.

Question #25
You have a failover cluster named Cluster1 that has the following configurations:
✑ Number of nodes: 6
✑ Quorum: Dynamic quorum
✑ Witness: File share, Dynamic witness
What is the maximum number of nodes that can fail simultaneously while maintaining quorum?

- A1
- B2
- C3Most Voted
- D4
- E5
Correct Answer:
C
Note this question is asking about nodes failing 'simultaneously', not nodes failing one after the other.
With six nodes and one witness, there are seven votes. To maintain quorum there needs to be four votes available (four votes is the majority of seven). This means that a minimum of three nodes plus the witness need to remain online for the cluster to function. Therefore, the maximum number of simultaneous failures is three.

On which volumes can you use direct access (DAX)?

- AVolume3 onlyMost Voted
- BVolume4 only
- CVolume1 and Volume3 only
- DVolume2 and Volume4 only
- EVolume3 and Volume4 only
Correct Answer:
A
DAX can only be used on one volume and the volume has to be NTFS. You could configure DAX on Volume1 (although that would require reformatting the volume) or Volume3. However, 'Volume1 only' isn't an answer option so Volume3 is the correct answer.
'Volume1 and Volume3' is incorrect because of the single volume limitation.
