An IT administrator is configuring ten new desktops without an operating system. The infrastructure contains an imaging server and operating system loaded on a USB, a DVD, and an SD card. Which of the following options
would minimize the amount of time the administrator needs to load the operating system on every machine?
Using a network-based deployment, such as network booting (PXE - Preboot Execution Environment) or imaging through a server, is the most efficient way to load operating systems onto multiple machines simultaneously. This approach minimizes the manual intervention required for each device, as the administrator can initiate the operating system installation or imaging process across all desktops at once through the network. In contrast, using an SD card, DVD (Optical), or USB would require the administrator to physically move the media from one desktop to another, significantly increasing the setup time for each device.
An administrator is tasked with building an environment consisting of four servers that can each serve the same website. Which of the following concepts is described?
Load balancing is a technique used to distribute workloads evenly across multiple servers, ensuring no single server is overwhelmed. This is especially important in environments where high availability and reliability are critical, such as when multiple servers are serving the same website. By doing so, load balancing improves the responsiveness and availability of applications or websites.
Load balancing refers to the process of distributing network or application traffic across multiple servers to ensure no single server becomes overwhelmed, thereby improving responsiveness and availability of applications or websites. In the scenario described, where four servers are set up to each serve the same website, the concept of load balancing is applied. This setup aims to distribute incoming requests evenly among the servers to maximize speed and capacity utilization while ensuring no one server is overburdened, which can lead to improved overall performance of the website. Options B, C, and D do not accurately describe the scenario of distributing traffic for the same website across multiple servers.

An administrator received an alert that a backup job has been unsuccessful in the previous three attempts. The administrator discovers the issue occurred while backing up a user's data on a network share. Which of the following actions would be best to allow the job to complete successfully?
Enabling open file backups allows the backup software to copy files that are currently open or in use by applications. This ensures that even if a file is actively being modified during the backup process, it will still be included in the backup.
Advantages:
Ensures consistency of backed-up data, especially for files that are frequently accessed or modified.
Prevents data loss due to files being skipped during backup.

A technician is configuring a new server with four disks for the development team. The requirements are disk redundancy and maximum usable disk capacity. Which of the following RAID levels should be used for this server?
Scenario:Four disks, requiring redundancy and maximum usable capacity.
RAID Level:RAID 10(Option D) is the best choice:
RAID 10 combines mirroring (redundancy) and striping (performance).
RAID 0 lacks redundancy, RAID 1 provides less capacity, and RAID 5 requires more
