A large education company recently introduced Amazon Workspaces to provide access to
internal applications across multiple universities. The company is storing user profiles on an Amazon
FSx (or Windows File Server file system. The tile system is configured with a DNS alias and is
connected to a self-managed Active Directory. As more users begin to use the Workspaces, login time
increases to unacceptable levels.
An investigation reveals a degradation in performance of the file system. The company created the
file system on HDD storage with a throughput of 16 MBps. A solutions architect must improve the
performance of the file system during a defined maintenance window.
What should the solutions architect do to meet these requirements with the LEAST administrative
effort?
A. Use AWS Backup to create a point-ln-lime backup of the file system. Restore the backup to a new
FSx for Windows File Server file system. Select SSD as the storage type Select 32 MBps as the
throughput capacity. When the backup and restore process Is completed, adjust the DNS alias accordingly. Delete the original file system.
B. Disconnect users from the file system. In the Amazon FSx console, update the throughput capacity
to 32 MBps. Update the storage type to SSD. Reconnect users to the file system.
C. Deploy an AWS DataSync agent onto a new Amazon EC2 Instance. Create a task. Configure the
existing file system as the source location. Configure a new FSx for Windows File Server file system
with SSD storage and 32 MBps of throughput as the target location. Schedule the task. When the task
is completed, adjust the DNS alias accordingly. Delete the original file system.
D. Enable shadow copies on the existing file system by using a Windows PowerShell command.
Schedule the shadow copy job to create a point-in-time backup of the file system. Choose to restore
previous versions. Create a new FSx for Windows File Server file system with SSD storage and 32 MBps of
