Question 580
Original unofficial RHEL 10 RHCSA skill-check scenario: A team changes a VG's planned physical extent size after it has been created and expects existing extents to resize automatically. Which ongoing practice best prevents a recurrence?
Explanation
Correct Answer
In this RHEL 10 system administration case: A team changes a VG's planned physical extent size after it has been created and expects existing extents to resize automatically. Underlying reason: VG physical extent sizing is a creation-time design decision. The most direct, approved resolution is: Review the desired extent size before VG creation or plan a supported migration rather than changing geometry blindly. Confirm it by checking: The new or migrated group has the intended extent configuration without data loss. Sustain the fix by: Record extent-size requirements before making volume groups. This is the INTENDED response for the best ongoing operational safeguard. It is a knowledge-check explanation, not a verified hands-on Red Hat exam answer;
Incorrect Answers
Require free-extent checks before capacity allocation. That is not sufficient for the reported RHEL task, because VG physical extent sizing is a creation-time design decision.
Log full VG/LV identifiers in destructive requests. That is not sufficient for the reported RHEL task, because VG physical extent sizing is a creation-time design decision.
Require device identity and backup checks before disk changes. That is not sufficient for the reported RHEL task, because VG physical extent sizing is a creation-time design decision.
