NEW QUESTION # 31
Which two access policies are supported by StorageGRID? (Choose two.)
- A. service
- B. group
- C. export
- D. ILM
- E. bucket
Answer: E
Explanation:
StorageGRID supports two kinds of access policies: bucket policies and group policies. Bucket policies are attached to buckets and control access by users in the bucket owner account or other accounts to the bucket and the objects in it. Group policies are attached to a group in the account and allow that group to access specific resources owned by that account. Both bucket and group policies use the Amazon Web Services (AWS) policy language and are written in JSON.

NEW QUESTION # 32
A construction department wants the ability to work on a set of planning files in headquarters and on several construction sites locally. The department needs global file locking for Windows file shares.
Which NetApp product should be used to meet these requirements?
- A. Cloud Volumes Service
- B. BlueXP observability
- C. BlueXP tiering
- D. BlueXP edge caching
Answer: D
Explanation:
BlueXP edge caching is a NetApp product that enables real-time global file sharing for distributed workforces by using NetApp Global File Cache. Global File Cache creates a software fabric that caches active datasets in distributed offices to deliver guaranteed transparent data access and optimal performance on a global scale. Global File Cache supports global file locking for Windows file shares, which prevents multiple processes from modifying the same file at the same time and allows cooperating processes to synchronize access to shared files. BlueXP edge caching allows enterprises to consolidate their unstructured data into their choice of private or public cloud, such as Cloud Volumes ONTAP, Cloud Volumes Service, and Azure NetApp Files.

Which StorageGRID feature enables a compliant information lifecycle management (ILM) policy to prevent object deletion?
- A. Cloud Storage Pool
- B. S3 Object Lock
- C. SnapLock Compliance
- D. S3 bucket access policy
Answer: B
Explanation:
S3 Object Lock is a StorageGRID feature that enables a compliant information lifecycle management (ILM) policy to prevent object deletion. S3 Object Lock allows you to apply a retention period and a legal hold to individual objects or object versions in buckets with S3 Object Lock enabled. During the retention period, objects cannot be overwritten or deleted unless the legal hold is in effect. If an object is under a legal hold, it cannot be deleted even after the retention period expires. S3 Object Lock helps you to meet regulatory compliance, privacy, and data protection requirements for your object data.
