   A server administrator is installing servers in a rack that does not have rack unit markings on the sides. The available open space for the new servers is approximately 3.5in (8.9cm) high. Which of the following is the LARGEST server size that can fit in this space?

   • A1U
   • B2U
   • C3U
   • D4U

   Show answer

   Answer: B

   Explanation

   B. 2U. This server size can fit in this space, as one rack unit is equal to 1.75in (4.45cm) high. Therefore, a 2U server is 2 x 1.75in = 3.5in (8.9cm) high, which matches the available open space for the new servers.

   A server administrator has configured a web server. Which of the following does the administrator need to install to make the website trusted?

   • APKI
   • BSSL
   • CLDAP
   • DDNS

   Show answer

   Answer: B

   Explanation

   Web interface—this may also manage Linux servers. For example, Linux Cockpit allows you to display and manage your Linux servers via a web browser. Such administration is therefore relatively universal, since the administrator only has to be working from a device that can run a web browser. SSL VPN protocols may be used to secure the connection. The Official CompTIA Server+ Study Guide (Exam SK0-005) page 199. CompTIA Server+ Certification Exam Objectives EXAM NUMBER: SK0-005 never mentioned PKI, so the best answer is SSL.

   A server administrator is gathering business requirements to determine how frequently backups need to be performed on an application server. Which of the following is the administrator attempting to establish?

   • AMTBF
   • BRPO
   • CMTTR
   • DRFC

   Show answer

   Answer: B

   Explanation

   B. RPO RPO stands for Recovery Point Objective. It refers to the maximum tolerable amount of data loss measured in time. In this scenario, the server administrator is gathering business requirements to determine how frequently backups need to be performed on an application server. This directly relates to establishing the RPO, as it helps determine the frequency of backups necessary to meet the organization's data recovery objectives. The RPO helps define the acceptable amount of data that may be lost during a disaster or failure scenario. By understanding the business requirements and the RPO, the administrator can set up backup schedules and strategies accordingly to ensure that data can be recovered within the desired time frame.

   The network's IDS is giving multiple alerts that unauthorized traffic from a critical application server is being sent to a known-bad public IP address. One of the alerts contains the following information: Exploit Alert - Attempted User Privilege Gain - 2/2/07-3:09:09 10.1.200.32 --> 208.206.12.9:80 This server application is part of a cluster in which two other servers are also servicing clients.

Which of the following should the administrator perform to ensure only authorized traffic is being sent from the application server and downtime is minimized? (Choose two.)

   • ADisable all services on the affected application server.
   • BPerform a vulnerability scan on all the servers within the cluster and patch accordingly.
   • CBlock access to 208.206.12.9 from all servers on the network.
   • DChange the IP address of all the servers in the cluster to the 208.206.12.0/26 subnet.
   • EEnable GPO to install an antivirus on all the servers and perform a weekly reboot.
   • FPerform an antivirus scan on all servers within the cluster and reboot each server.
