In a CLARiiON array, which clone state would prevent a clone from being removed from a clone group?
-
Consistent
-
Fractured
-
Promoted
-
Synchronizing
D
Correct answer
Explanation
In CLARiiON storage arrays, a clone in the 'Synchronizing' state cannot be removed from its clone group because the synchronization operation is actively in progress. Removing it during this critical phase would corrupt the clone relationship and potentially cause data inconsistency. The other states (Consistent, Fractured, Promoted) represent stable conditions where removal operations can be safely performed.
