RAID Recovery Course - Parity Analysis Test

Choose the correct statement

A XOR A < 0
A XOR A > 0
A XOR A = 0

Choose the correct statement

A XOR 0 = 0
A XOR 0 = A
A XOR 0 = 1

Choose the property of XOR function due to which "mirrors are always even"

A XOR B = B XOR A
A XOR 0 = A
A XOR A = 0

Choose the property of XOR function due to which "blank disks litter the parity analysis"

A XOR B = B XOR A
A XOR A = 0
A XOR 0 = A

Choose the property of XOR function due to which "you do not need to know the parity location when reconstructing a missing disk"

A XOR 0 = A
A XOR A = 0
A XOR B = B XOR A

Parity test for a Promise RAID6 gives:

0% parity in full disk set and 0% parity in all combinations with one disk excluded
0% parity in full disk set and 100% parity in all combinations with one disk excluded
100% parity in full disk set and 0% parity in all combinations with one disk excluded

Choose the correct statement

A XOR B > B XOR A
A XOR B < B XOR A
A XOR B = B XOR A

We have a mailing list in which we talk about interesting cases we encounter and share some tips and tricks.
