A company has an existing Dell EMC 4-node X410 Gen 5 cluster with approximately 100TB of SMB shares connected using two InfiniBand 8-port switches. The company wants a technical refresh of the cluster with a new 4-node H500 Gen 6 cluster with two 16-port InfiniBand switches. The existing cluster has SyncIQ, SmartConnect Advanced, and SmartPools licenses installed.
To move the data from the existing modes to the new nodes, which migration plan is recommended?

A. Setup a new cluster with the new Gen 6 nodes and its InfiniBand switches
Use SyncIQ to migrate the data and then SmartFail the existing cluster
B. Setup a new cluster with the new Gen 6 nodes and its InfiniBand switches
Use EMCopy to migrate the data and then use “sharedup” to create the shares
C. Modify the default file pool policy to move the data
Swap the existing InfiniBand switches with the new switches
D. Add the new nodes to the existing cluster
Modify the default file pool policy to move the data and then SmartFail the existing nodes
