Discuss Cisco 300-215 Exam Topic 1 Question 20

A website administrator has an output of an FTP session that runs nightly to download and unzip files to a local staging server. The download includes thousands of files, and the manual process used to find how many files failed to download is time-consuming. The administrator is working on a PowerShell script that will parse a log file and summarize how many files were successfully downloaded versus ones that failed. Which script will read the contents of the file one line at a time and return a collection of objects?

AGet-Content-Folder \\Server\FTPFolder\Logfiles\ftpfiles.log | Show-From ''ERROR'', ''SUCCESS''

BGet-Content --ifmatch \\Server\FTPFolder\Logfiles\ftpfiles.log | Copy-Marked ''ERROR'', ''SUCCESS''

CGet-Content --Directory \\Server\FTPFolder\Logfiles\ftpfiles.log | Export-Result ''ERROR'', ''SUCCESS''

DGet-Content --Path \\Server\FTPFolder\Logfiles\ftpfiles.log | Select-String ''ERROR'', ''SUCCESS''

Suggested Answer: D

Option A looks interesting too, but I’m leaning towards D.

I’ve used similar scripts before, and D worked perfectly for me.

Wait, are we sure about that? What if the log format is different?

Yeah, D makes the most sense here!

I think option D is the right choice. It uses Select-String correctly.

I'm leaning towards option D too, but I wonder if there's a better way to summarize the results after filtering.

I feel like I've seen something similar in our last practice exam, but I can't recall if we used --Path or something else.

I think option D sounds familiar; it uses Select-String, which is often used for searching through log files.

I remember practicing with Get-Content, but I'm not sure about the exact syntax for filtering errors and successes.

This seems like a straightforward question about managing requirements changes. I think the key is to develop a formal change control process, so I'll go with option A.

Ona 1 year ago

For some reason, I keep mixing up invalid characters in the certificate name with other types of errors. I guess that might relate to answer B?

Xenia 1 year ago

Hmm, I'm a bit confused on the difference here. I'll need to think through the key characteristics of each approach.
