Why is this task failing?

An administrator has been tasked with creating a distributed share on a single-node cluster, but has been unable to successfully complete the task.

Why is this task failing?
A . File server version should be greater than 3.8.0
B . AOS version should be greater than 6.0.
C . Number of distributed shares limit reached.
D . Distributed shares require multiple nodes.

Answer: D

Explanation:

A distributed share is a type of SMB share or NFS export that distributes the hosting of top-level directories across multiple FSVMs, which improves load balancing and performance. A distributed share cannot be created on a single-node cluster, because there is only one FSVM available. A distributed share requires at least two nodes in the cluster to distribute the directories. Therefore, the task of creating a distributed share on a single-node cluster will fail.
