Haha, I bet the correct answer is something completely unexpected, like "All of the above" or "None of the above." You can never trust these certification exams!

Hmm, I'm not sure. I thought the FabricPool license was a separate purchase. C seems plausible.

D sounds right to me. The ONTAP bundle should include the FabricPool license, right?

I think B is the correct answer. Why would we need a FabricPool license if we're using StorageGRID?

I thought we went over that you can increase the capacity of a FabricPool license after the initial purchase, so option A seems wrong to me.

I’m leaning towards option B, but I remember there was some confusion about whether a license is needed at all for FabricPool.

I feel like we discussed that each cluster comes with a certain capacity for FabricPool, but I can't recall if it's specifically 10 TB or something else.

I'm leaning towards option D. The FabricPool license is likely included with the NetApp ONTAP bundle, but I'll double-check the details to be sure.

I'm not entirely sure about the FabricPool licensing, but I'll make an educated guess and go with option C. Each cluster includes a 10 TB license, so that seems plausible.
