Actual exam question for CompTIA's SK0-005 exam

Question #: 77
Topic #: 2

A server administrator implemented a new backup solution and needs to configure backup methods for remote sites. These remote sites have low bandwidth and backups must not

interfere with the network during normal business hours. Which of the following methods can be used to meet these requirements? (Select two).

AOpen file

BArchive

CCloud

DSnapshot

EDifferential

FSynthetic full

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B, E

Archive is a method of storing historical data that is not frequently accessed or modified. Archive can reduce the amount of data that needs to be backed up and save bandwidth and storage space. Differential is a method of backing up only the data that has changed since the last full backup. Differential can also save bandwidth and storage space, as well as speed up the backup process.

Hmm, this is a tough one. I'm going to go with Snapshot and Cloud. The Cloud option could be a good way to handle the backups without impacting the network during business hours. Plus, who doesn't love a little bit of the 'cloud' magic, am I right?

I think Cloud and Snapshot can be used for remote sites with low bandwidth.

Definitely Snapshot and Differential! Those options seem to be the perfect fit for the low-bandwidth requirement. I'm just glad I don't have to configure the backups - that's way too much work for me!

I know what you mean, configuring backups can be a lot of work. Good thing we have the right options for this scenario.

I think the answer should be Snapshot and Differential. Snapshot backups capture the entire system state at a specific point in time, while Differential backups only include the changes since the last full backup, both of which should work well for low-bandwidth remote sites.

Synthetic full backups might be too resource-intensive for remote sites with low bandwidth.
