Full set: 61 questions
Answer options
A: Blue with a faulted state
B: Orange with a faulted state Correct answer
C: Orange with an empty state
D: Blue with an empty state
Correct Answer:
B. Orange with a faulted state
Explanation

In the Dell EMC PowerStore Manager graphical user interface, the hardware health status is color-coded for quick identification of issues. A component that is defective or has failed is represented with the color orange and is assigned a "Faulted" state. This visual cue immediately alerts an administrator to a hardware problem requiring attention. Healthy components are typically displayed in blue.

Why Incorrect

A. Blue with a faulted state: Blue is used to indicate a healthy, operational, or selected component, not a faulted one.
C. Orange with an empty state: The "Empty" state signifies that a slot is unpopulated. A defective module is physically present but non-operational.
D. Blue with an empty state: This combines the incorrect color for a fault (blue) with the incorrect state for a defective module (empty).

which corresponds to the orange/faulted state in the UI.
