Answer: D,E,F

Explanation:

A non-voting member is used to make the server not participate in the Raft quorum, and have it only

receive the data replication stream. This can be used to add read scalability to a cluster in cases where a

high volume of reads to servers is needed.

Using AutoPilot, in the event that a voting member in an availability zone fails, the redundancy zone configuration would automatically promote the non-voting member to a voting member. https://www.consul.io/docs/enterprise/redundancy
