CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1002) — Question 115
An office building lost power, and the generator started up. Users on several floors have reported their machines will not start, even though the generator is running. A technician works to divert power from other floors until all users are able to work. Which of the following is the BEST solution for the technician to recommend?
Answer options
- A. Add more redundancy to the power cabling
- B. Purchase more battery backups for individual users
- C. Implement desktop virtualization
- D. Increase the capacity of the backup generator
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The best solution is to increase the capacity of the backup generator, as it directly addresses the power supply issue affecting multiple users. Adding redundancy or purchasing battery backups may not resolve the immediate power shortage, and desktop virtualization does not solve the underlying power supply problem.
