Reason: The DDP automatically reserves space for reconstruction purposes.

Automatic Space Reservation:

Functionality: The system automatically reserves adequate space for reconstruction when a disk fails.


Confirmation:

Verify: Check the pool's configuration to ensure the space is reserved for reconstruction.

Result: The system will show the reserved space within the DDP configuration.

D sounds interesting, but do we really need a hot spare for this?

Wait, can you really rely on the system to reserve space automatically?

A seems risky, why reserve space when you can just add a drive?

Option C is the way to go, it auto-reserves space!

I practiced a question about disk pools before, and I think adding another drive like in option B might be the safest way to ensure we have enough space.

I feel like option C could be correct since it mentions automatic reservation, but I can't recall if that's always the case.

I think I saw a similar question where we had to consider hot spares. Maybe option D is the right choice?

I remember something about needing extra space for reconstruction, but I'm not sure if the system automatically reserves it or if we have to do it manually.
