After installing an OS on a new server, the administrator realizes the server does not have any network connectivity. The administrator checks the network cable, and it seems to be transferring dat
a. Which of the following should be checked next?
Correct : B
If the network cable is functioning but there is no network connectivity, the next step would be to check the IPv4 options. This includes verifying that the server has a correct IP address, subnet mask, and gateway configuration.
IPv4 options (Answer B): Incorrect IP configuration is a common reason for network connectivity issues.
NIC firmware (Option A): Firmware issues are less likely if the NIC is detecting the cable and appears operational.
DHCP options (Option C): DHCP could be checked if automatic IP assignment is being used, but verifying IPv4 options manually is the first step.
Firewall options (Option D): Firewalls can block connectivity but should be checked after confirming IP settings.
DNS settings (Option E): DNS issues usually affect domain name resolution, not basic network connectivity.

Which of the following backup types is used to capture all data regardless of any changes from the previous backup jobs?
Correct : E
A full backup captures all data, regardless of whether it has changed since the last backup. This ensures that a complete copy of the data is made every time.
Full (Answer E): A full backup includes every file in the system, regardless of changes.
Incremental (Option A): Backs up only files that have changed since the last backup (full or incremental).
Differential (Option B): Backs up all files changed since the last full backup.
Archive (Option C): Typically refers to long-term storage of data, not a type of backup process.
Snapshot (Option D): Captures the system's state at a given point in time, often used in virtual environments.

A technician wants to duplicate a physical server to a remote private cloud for disaster recovery purposes. Which of the following techniques would best accomplish this goal?
Correct : B
P2V (Physical to Virtual) refers to converting a physical server into a virtual machine, which can then be deployed to a remote cloud environment. This is the best method for duplicating a physical server to a virtual environment for disaster recovery.
P2V (Answer B): This is the process of converting a physical server to a virtual machine for migration to the cloud.
V2V (Option A): Refers to virtual-to-virtual migration, which is not applicable in this case.
V2P (Option C): Refers to converting a virtual machine back to physical, which is not needed here.
P2P (Option D): Physical-to-physical migration is not relevant for cloud-based disaster recovery.

Which of the following would allow a server administrator to ensure all maximum available resources are being utilized?
Correct : D
Resource Monitor is a tool that allows administrators to monitor the system's CPU, memory, disk, and network usage in real-time, ensuring that maximum resources are being efficiently utilized.
Resource Monitor (Answer D): This tool provides real-time insights into resource utilization and can help ensure resources are not under- or over-utilized.
Overprovisioning (Option A): Refers to allocating more resources than physically available but doesn't directly monitor resource usage.
Scalability (Option B): Refers to the ability to increase or decrease resources based on demand.
Thin clients (Option C): Refer to lightweight computers that depend on servers for processing power, unrelated to resource utilization monitoring.

Which of the following documents would explain the consequences of server downtime?
Correct : D
A business impact analysis (BIA) is a document that outlines the potential effects of downtime on business operations. It identifies critical business functions and estimates the impact of disruption on the organization's ability to function.
Business impact analysis (Answer D): This document is specifically designed to assess the consequences of downtime and other disruptions.
Service-level agreement (Option A): Defines the expected level of service between a provider and a client but doesn't directly explain downtime consequences.
Business continuity plan (Option B): Outlines how the business will continue operating during a disruption but doesn't focus solely on the consequences of downtime.
Disaster recovery plan (Option C): Focuses on restoring systems after a disaster but doesn't outline the specific impact of downtime.
