    Correction. it is 1 not 4. The reference to 4 was indicative of the example provided by NetApp.

    [-aggr-list-multiplier ] – Aggregate List Repeat Count
    Specifies the number of times to iterate over the aggregates listed with the -aggr-list parameter when expanding a FlexGroup. The aggregate list will be repeated the specified number of times.

    Example:
    -aggr-list aggr1,aggr2 -aggr-list-multiplier 2
    will cause four constituents to be created in the order aggr1, aggr2, aggr1, aggr2.

    The default value is 1.

    I have tested this on my homelab (2 node cluster ONTAP 9.1 sim)

    Opened clustershell. Entered the same command without junction-path and space-guarantee parameters. I have listed two aggregates and the output tells me that it will create 8 constituents.

    cl1::> volume create -vserver CIFS -volume FlexGroup1 -aggr-list aggr1, aggr2 -size 500M

    Warning: A FlexGroup “FlexGroup1” will be created with the following number of
    constituents of size 62.50MB: 8.
    Do you want to continue? {y|n}: y

    As people already mentioned, the default multiplier is 4. (reference doc: http://docs.netapp.com/ontap-9/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.netapp.doc.pow-fg-mgmt%2FGUID-65EF2096-8BA6-4DB8-8786-ACAD1DAE406F.html)

    If i specifically enter the parameter -aggr-list-multiplier, i will get a different constituent output. Look at my example:

    cl1::> volume create -vserver CIFS -volume FlexGroup4 -aggr-list aggr1, aggr2 -aggr-list-multiplier 2 -size 500M

    Warning: A FlexGroup “FlexGroup4” will be created with the following number of constituents of size 125MB: 4.
    Do you want to continue? {y|n}: y

    So the correct answer is C
