Question#1

A server in a remote datacenter is no longer responsive.
Which of the following is the BEST solution to investigate this failure?

A. Remote desktop
B. Access via a crash cart
C. Out-of-band management
D. A Secure Shell connection

Explanation:
The best solution to investigate the failure of a server in a remote datacenter is out-of-band management. Out-of-band management is a method of accessing and controlling a server or a device using a dedicated channel that is separate from its normal network connection. Out-of-band management can use various technologies, such as serial ports, modems, KVM switches, or dedicated management cards or interfaces. Out-of-band management can provide remote access to servers or devices even when they are powered off, unresponsive, or disconnected from the network. Out-of-band management can enable troubleshooting, configuration, maintenance, or recovery tasks without requiring physical presence at the server location.

Question#2

Which of the following DR testing scenarios is described as verbally walking through each step of the DR plan in the context of a meeting?

A. Live failover
B. Simulated failover
C. Asynchronous
D. Tabletop

Explanation:
The DR testing scenario that is described as verbally walking through each step of the DR plan in the context of a meeting is tabletop. A tabletop test is a type of disaster recovery (DR) test that involves discussing and reviewing the DR plan with key stakeholders and participants in a simulated scenario. A tabletop test does not involve any actual execution of the DR plan or any disruption of the normal operations. A tabletop test can help identify gaps, issues, or inconsistencies in the DR plan and improve communication and coordination among the DR team members.

Question#3

A technician is able to copy a Me to a temporary folder on another partition but is unable to copy it to a network share or a USB flash drive.
Which of the following is MOST likely preventing the file from being copied to certain locations?

A. An ACL
B. Antivirus
C. DLP
D. A firewall

Explanation:
DLP (Data Loss Prevention) is a security measure that prevents unauthorized copying, transferring, or leaking of sensitive data from a server or a network. It can block or alert the user when they try to copy a file to certain locations, such as a network share or a USB flash drive, based on predefined policies and rules.
Verified Reference: [DLP], [Data loss]

Question#4

An administrator is configuring a host-based firewall tor a server. The server needs to allow SSH, FTP, and LDAP traffic.
Which of the following ports must be configured so this traffic will be allowed? (Select THREE).

A. 21
B. 22
C. 53
D. 67
E. 69
F. 110
G. 123
H. 389

Explanation:
These are the port numbers that must be configured on a host-based firewall for a server that needs to allow SSH, FTP, and LDAP traffic. A port number is a numerical identifier that specifies a communication endpoint for a network protocol or an application. A host-based firewall is a software tool that monitors and controls incoming and outgoing network traffic on a single host based on predefined rules. SSH (Secure Shell) is a protocol that allows secure remote access and file transfer over an encrypted connection. The default port number for SSH is 22. FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is a protocol that allows transferring files between hosts over a network connection. The default port number for FTP is 21. LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) is a protocol that allows accessing and managing directory services over a network connection. The default port number for LDAP is

Question#5

A technician is laying out a filesystem on a new Linux server.
Which of the following tools would work BEST to allow the technician to increase a partition's size in the future without reformatting it?

A. LVM
B. DiskPart
C. fdisk
D. Format

Explanation:
LVM (Logical Volume Manager) is a tool that allows the technician to increase a partition’s size in the future without reformatting it on a Linux server. LVM creates logical volumes that can span across multiple physical disks or partitions and can be resized dynamically without losing data. LVM also provides other features such as snapshots, encryption, and RAID. DiskPart, fdisk, and Format are tools that can be used to partition and format disks, but they do not allow increasing a partition’s size without reformatting it.
