Suggested answer: C

Explanation:

After creating volumes on an XtremIO system, the steps required to provision these volumes to the servers involve host configuration, establishing SAN connectivity, setting up an Initiator group, and mapping the volumes.

Host Configuration: Configure the host's HBA (Host Bus Adapter) to ensure it can connect to the SAN (Storage Area Network). This involves setting the correct parameters such as data transfer rates and queue depths.

SAN Connectivity: Establish connectivity between the host and the SAN. This includes zoning in a Fibre Channel network or setting up the appropriate network configurations for iSCSI.

Initiator Group: Create an Initiator group within the XtremIO system. This group will contain the identifiers (WWPN for Fibre Channel or IQN for iSCSI) of the host's HBA.

Volumes Mapping: Map the volumes to the host by creating a LUN (Logical Unit Number) mapping that associates the volumes with the Initiator group. This allows the host to see and access the volumes.

These steps ensure that the XtremIO volumes are correctly provisioned and accessible to the servers1. It's important to follow the specific procedures outlined in the official Dell XtremIO Deploy Achievement documentation to ensure proper configuration and to avoid any potential issues during the provisioning process.
