Wait, can you really copy files owned by another user like that?

Just a heads up, the first command might miss files not exactly 10k.

I think the `cp -a` option is important to preserve attributes, but I wonder if there's a simpler way to copy files without losing permissions.

For the second part, I believe using `-user lucy` is right, but I’m uncertain if I should use `-exec cp -a` or just `-exec cp`.

I remember practicing a similar question about finding files by size, but I can't recall if I need to include `-type f` to only find files.

I think the first command should use `-size` correctly, but I'm not sure if I need to specify the unit like `k` for kilobytes.

I'm pretty sure the Arista switches use the same MLAG System ID when configured as an MLAG domain, so I'll go with TRUE on this one.

I'm a little confused by the wording of the question. Is the retailer migrating to the cloud to save money, or is the cloud computing aspect they're considering the best way to save money? I want to make sure I interpret the question correctly.

Ah, I see! The key is to use the -user option to find files owned by a specific user. That makes sense.
