  2. B

  3. C
    Hot site
  4. D
    Active-active site

Cevap

The facility represents a cold site because it provides basic infrastructure utilities such as space, power, and cooling, but does not contain pre-installed hardware or active data.
A cold site is a secondary recovery location that provides essential physical infrastructure—such as power, HVAC, shell space, and basic communication links—but has no pre-installed server hardware, SAN storage, or active data backups. Organizations must bring in hardware and perform full system restores when activating a cold site.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the readiness parameters of the secondary facility described in the scenario.
The location includes physical space, power, HVAC, and network connectivity, but lacks pre-installed server hardware and data backups.
Categorizing a disaster recovery site requires evaluating the hardware and data readiness level.
2
Match the facility characteristics to standard disaster recovery site definitions.
A site with space and environmental utilities but no pre-configured computing hardware is defined as a cold site.
Cold sites are the least expensive recovery options but require the longest time to make fully operational after a disaster.
