Question 15
A host attempted a read from a volume in a VPLEX Metro configuration. The data does not exist in cache at all. What process does VPLEX use to service the read request?

VPLEX first searches the cache coherency directory for the data before reading from the array.
C.
VPLEX first searches the local cache for the data before reading from the array.
D.
VPLEX first searches the cache coherency directory for the data, and then searches the local cache before reading from the array.
