Certified Data Management Professional – Fundamentals (CDMP) — Question 35

Common data loss scenarios, that a DBA plans for, are unlikely to include:

Answer options

• A. Customers losing their user guide
• B. Loss of database server
• C. Corruption of the physical database
• D. Loss of transaction logs
• E. Loss of one or more disk storage devices

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because customers losing their user guide is not a scenario that affects data integrity or availability, which is the focus of a DBA's planning. In contrast, the other options, such as loss of the database server, corruption of the physical database, loss of transaction logs, and loss of disk storage devices, are critical issues that directly impact data management and recovery strategies.
