A storage administrator is investigating an issue with a failed hard drive.
A technician replaced the drive in the storage array; however, there is still an issue with the logical volume.
Which of the following best describes the NEXT step that should be completed to restore the volume?
A.
Initialize the volume B.
Format the volume C.
Replace the volume D.
Rebuild the volume.
D.

In this scenario, a storage administrator is investigating an issue with a failed hard drive, and a technician has replaced the drive in the storage array. However, there is still an issue with the logical volume. The next step to restore the volume would be to rebuild the volume.
Rebuilding a volume involves using data redundancy to recreate the data that was lost due to the failed hard drive. This process typically involves accessing data from other drives in the array and using parity information or other methods to recreate the missing data.
Initializing the volume would erase all data on the volume and prepare it for use, so it would not be the correct next step in this scenario. Formatting the volume would also erase all data on the volume and prepare it for use, so it would not be the correct next step either.
Replacing the volume would involve removing the entire logical volume and replacing it with a new one, which would also result in data loss and would not be the correct next step.
Therefore, the best option to restore the volume would be to rebuild the volume using the available redundancy and other data protection measures in the storage array.
