CompTIA CompTIA Certifications SK0-005 Questions & Answers

• Question 341:

  A technician is setting up a physical server that will be used to store sensitive data. The technician plans to set up the internal hard drives in a RAID 5 array for redundancy. Which of the following would be the BEST type of interface for the technician to use?

  A. SAS

  B. USB

  C. SD

  D. eSATA

  Correct Answer: A

• Question 342:

  A server shut down after an extended power outage. When power was restored, the system failed to start. A few seconds into booting, the Num Lock, Scroll Lock, and Caps Lock LEDs ashed several times, and the system stopped. Which of the following is the MOST likely cause of the issue?

  A. The keyboard is defective and needs to be replaced.

  B. The system failed before the display card initialized.

  C. The power supply is faulty and is shutting down the system.

  D. The NIC has failed, and the system cannot make a network connection.

  Correct Answer: C

  "A problematic Power Supply Unit is more likely to cause the described behavior. An issue with the PSU could lead to unstable power delivery, which may trigger the server's built-in protection mechanisms, causing it to shut down. Faulty power supply units are known to cause erratic behavior, including unusual light patterns on the indicator LEDs."

• Question 343:

  Which of the following is the MOST secure method to access servers located in remote branch offices?

  A. Use an MFA out-of-band solution

  B. Use a Telnet connection

  C. Use a password complexity policy

  D. Use a role-based access policy

  Correct Answer: D

  MFA and out of band could be an answer but MFA isn't specific to just secure remote access .. it is for the entire network. Out of band would be authentication that is done outside of the original communication.

  Telnet is not secure

  A password complexity policy has nothing to do with most secure access method RBAC provides a consistent authentication and authorization mechanism for users access. Role-based access control (RBAC) restricts network access based

  on a person's role within an organization and has become one of the main methods for advanced access control. The roles in RBAC refer to the levels of access that employees have to the network.

• Question 344:

  A technician is troubleshooting a server issue. Which of the following should the technician do to ensure the solution can be duplicated in the future?

  A. Verify system functionality and implement preventive measures

  B. Document the ndings, actions, and outcomes throughout the process

  C. Determine if there is a common element or symptom

  D. Notify the impacted users before implementing any changes

  Correct Answer: B

• Question 345:

  Which of the following ensures a secondary network path is available if the primary connection fails?

  A. Link aggregation

  B. Most recently used

  C. Heartbeat

  D. Fault tolerance

  Correct Answer: D

  Fault tolerance is the ability of a system to continue functioning in the event of a failure of one or more of its components. Fault tolerance can ensure a secondary network path is available if the primary connection fails. Fault tolerance can be

  achieved by using redundant components, such as network cards, cables, switches, routers, etc., that can take over the function of the failed component without interrupting the service.

• Question 346:

  A developer is creating a web application that will contain ve web nodes. The developer's main goal is to ensure the application is always available to the end users. Which of the following should the developer use when designing the web application?

  A. Round robin

  B. Link aggregation

  C. Network address translation

  D. Bridged networking

  Correct Answer: A

• Question 347:

  An administrator is troubleshooting a failure in the datacenter in which a server shut down/powered off when utility power was lost. The server had redundant power supplies. Which of the following is the MOST likely cause of this failure?

  A. The UPS batteries were overcharged

  B. Redundant power supplies require 220V power

  C. Both power supplies were connected to the same power feed

  D. The power supplies were not cross-connected

  Correct Answer: C

• Question 348:

  Which of the following refers to the requirements that dictate when to delete data backups?

  A. Retention policies

  B. Cloud security impact

  C. Off-site storage

  D. Life-cycle management

  Correct Answer: A

  Retention policies are the guidelines that dictate when to delete data backups based on operational or compliance needs. They specify how long, how, where, and in what format the data backups are stored, and who has authority over them. The other options are not directly related to the deletion of data backups.

• Question 349:

  A server administrator has a system requirement to install the virtual OS on bare metal hardware. Which of the following hypervisor virtualization technologies should the administrator use to BEST meet the system requirements? (Choose two.)

  A. Host

  B. Template

  C. Clone

  D. Type 1

  E. Type 2

  F. Guest

  Correct Answer: DE

• Question 350:

  Which of the following commands should a systems administrator use to create a batch script to map multiple shares?

  A. nbtstat

  B. net use

  C. tracert

  D. netstat

  Correct Answer: B

  The net use command is a Windows command that can be used to create a batch script to map multiple shares. The net use command can connect or disconnect a computer from a shared resource, such as a network drive or a printer, or

  display information about computer connections. The syntax of the net use command is:

  net use [devicename | *] [\\computername\sharename[\u0003volume] [password | *]] [/user:[domainname\]username] [/user:[dotted domain name\]username] [/user:[[username@dotted domain name] [/savecred] [/smartcard] [{/delete | /

  persistent:{yes | no}}]

  where:

  devicename = the drive letter or printer port to assign to the shared resource computername = the name of the computer that provides access to the shared resource sharename = the name of the shared resource password = the password

  needed to access the shared resource /user = specifies a different username to make the connection /savecred = stores the provided credentials for future use /smartcard = uses a smart card for authentication /delete = cancels a network

  connection and removes the connection from the list of persistent connections /persistent = controls whether the connection is restored at logon

  To create a batch script to map multiple shares, you can use the net use command with different drive letters and share names, for example:

  net use W: \\computer1\share1 net use X: \\computer2\share2 net use Y: \\computer3\share3

  You can also add other options, such as passwords, usernames, or persistence, as needed. To save the batch script, you can use Notepad or any text editor and save the file with a .bat extension12.
