   Comptia won't tell you what exact answers you got correct or wrong. At the end of your exam you'll receive a paper with your results and basically a summary of the topics you got wrong. It's categorized as the objectives on the website (ex. "5.3 Given a scenario, troubleshoot and diagnose problems with drives and RAID arrays"). But it doesn't tell you what exact questions you got wrong or the amount of questions you get wrong. you just get a score and a summary. Hope this helps if you haven't taken your test yet.

   Which of the following describes the BEST use case for a client-side hypervisor?

   • AFor a software developer who is required to test an application in many environments В. When the data center environment is out of resources for a new server
   • BAs a cost-saving measure to allow multiple users on one computer
   • CTo provide a backup to cloud-based solutions during internet failures

   Show answer

   Answer: A

   Explanation

   A. For a software developer who is required to test an application in many environments. A client-side hypervisor is a type of software that allows a single computer to run multiple virtual machines (VMs) simultaneously, each with its own operating system and applications. This technology is useful for software developers who need to test their applications in different environments, as they can create multiple VMs that mimic different operating systems, browsers, and configurations. The developer can then run their application on each of these VMs to ensure that it works properly in all environments. This saves time and resources compared to setting up separate physical machines for each environment.

   A technician needs to install a cost-effective storage device into a rackmount server that will be used as a VM host. This storage will be used for all VMs that run from the server. Which of the following should be used?

   • AOptical disk drive
   • BeMMC storage device
   • C15,000rpm drive
   • DRAID 10 array

   Show answer

   Answer: C

   Explanation

   Pay attention to the words in the question, it says nothing about redundancy. Only answer what the question is actually asking, which is cost-effective. RAID 10 is not cost-effective, due to really only using 50% of the disks' storage capacity.

   A technician installed new firmware on the company's laser printers and has since been receiving multiple calls that information is garbled and looks like code. Only printers with the new firmware are having this issue. Which of the following steps should the technician complete NEXT?

   • AChange the language settings on the printers.
   • BReboot all the machines having the issues.
   • CReboot all the printers.
   • DInstall an updated printer driver on the print server.

   Show answer

   Answer: D

   Explanation

   D. Install an updated printer driver on the print server. The issue of information being garbled and looking like code could be related to a compatibility issue with the new firmware and the existing printer driver. The printer driver is responsible for converting the print job data into a format that the printer can understand and print. If the new firmware is not compatible with the existing driver, it could cause the printed output to be incorrect. To resolve this issue, the technician should install an updated printer driver on the print server that is compatible with the new firmware. This will ensure that the driver is able to correctly translate the print job data into a format that the printer can understand and produce accurate printed output.

   Which of the following standards supports MIMO technology?

   • A802.11a
   • B802.11b
   • C802.11g
   • D802.11n

   Show answer

   Answer: D

   Explanation

   802.11n is the standard that supports MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) technology. 802.11n is a wireless networking standard that operates on both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequency bands, and it uses MIMO technology to increase the data transfer rate and improve signal quality. MIMO technology uses multiple antennas to transmit and receive data, allowing for greater throughput and improved reliability. 802.11a, 802.11b, and 802.11g are earlier wireless networking standards that do not support MIMO technology.

   A user visits the help desk to report that a smartphone takes more than a day to fully charge. The user already tested multiple wall outlets and swapped the charging cable, but the results are the same. Which of the following should the technician do FIRST?

   • AVerify the power rating of the charger.
   • BEnsure all unnecessary connectivity features are disabled.
   • CCheck that all missing smartphone OS updates are applied.
   • DComplete a factory reset of the phone.

   Show answer

   Answer: A

   Explanation

   Wall outlets and charging cable has been already tested. The First what I would check is the wattage rating of the charger. Sometimes It happens that the charger might come with the wrong wattage rating which might slow down the charging process. If the wattage rating is correct next option would be B; If the problem still continues then option C; And finally if all of them will not fix an issue the factory reset of the phone. If the issue still exists then the battery is faulty and you need to return it to a vendor.

   User attempted to install an application on a desktop, and the installation attempt failed. Technician compares these installation files to those on another user's machine and finds the files are different. Which of the following should the technician do NEXT?

   • AAttempt to reinstall the application.
   • BVerify the system functionality.
   • CTest the functionality of the antivirus.
   • DComplete the final report.
   • EDetermine the source of the installation file.

   Show answer

   Answer: E

   Explanation

   Because the files of the application that did not work were different than those on the other computers means that could come from another source and the application did not work. Attempting to reinstall does not make sense if the app did not work. The only logical answer for me is to determine the source that could be not legitimate or corrupt. I would run these files with Virus Total scan: https:// www.virustotal.com

The technician performs diagnostics and confirms the hard drive is fully operational. Which of the following steps should the technician complete NEXT?

    • AReinstall the operating system.
    • BConfigure a new RAID array.
    • CReport the status of the drive and close the ticket.
    • DConsider another possible cause of the issue.
    • ERestore the latest backup of the system.

    Show answer

    Answer: D

    Explanation

    The technician established the theory of probable cause and tested it and did not confirm - the hard drive worked. So now he needs to re-establish a new theory or escalate a problem. " 3. Test the theory to determine the cause: Once the theory is confirmed, determine the next steps to resolve the problem. If the theory is not confirmed, re-establish a new theory or escalate."
