I've seen it work like option A before, so I agree with that one.

Option B is definitely wrong; it won't stop all activities.

Wait, can the SHC really function with just 3 nodes? That sounds risky!

Lindsey 12 months ago

I disagree, option D makes more sense to me.

Raymon 12 months ago

I think option C is correct since 3 nodes are needed for SHC to work.

I’m a bit confused about the captain role in this scenario. I thought the SHC would just stop if there’s a network issue, but I can't remember if that's option A or B.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like option B might be correct since outages usually disrupt scheduled tasks.

Clarence 1 year ago

I think option C sounds familiar because I remember something about needing a minimum number of nodes for SHC to stay operational.

I recall practicing a question similar to this, and I think the SHC can still function if the captain changes, which might relate to option D.

I'm a bit confused by the wording here. I'll need to re-read the question a few times to make sure I understand what's being asked.

This is a good test of my knowledge of the FM Administration menu. I'll methodically go through each option and select the four that are correct based on the question. Careful reading is the key to getting this one right.

Regulation of financial systems seems like a core part of FATF's recommendations, so I'm definitely selecting that.
