What version number is assigned to a duplicated policy?

AThe original policy's version number

BZero

CThe original policy's number plus one

DOne

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

When a policy is duplicated in Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP), the duplicated policy is assigned a version number of 'One'. This means that the new policy starts fresh with a version number of 1, separate from the original policy's version history. The SEP system uses this new version number to track any subsequent changes to the duplicated policy independently of the original.

I'm leaning towards B. Zero indicates it's a duplicate, right?

I feel like it could be C. Adding one seems logical for tracking changes.

B) Zero. Duplicates are like ghosts - they don't have a real identity.

D) One. Duplicates should always start fresh with version 1.

I'm leaning towards option D, but I have a nagging feeling that it could also be the original's number plus one.

I practiced a similar question where the version number was reset to zero for duplicates. Could that be the case here too?

I think it's A. The original policy's version number makes sense.

I remember something about versioning in policies, and I feel like it might be option C, but I can't recall the exact details.

C) The original policy's number plus one. That's the logical way to track changes.

I think the duplicated policy gets the original's version number, but I'm not completely sure.

I'm confident the answer is C. The original policy's version number would be incremented by one for the duplicate.

I've seen this type of question before. The key is understanding that a duplicate policy gets a new version, so the answer is C.

Okay, let me think this through. If it's a duplicate, then it should get a new version number, so I'll go with D.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. Is the policy really duplicated, or is it a new version? I'm torn between B and C.
