CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1202) — Question 61

A technician notices that the weekly backup is taking too long to complete. The daily backups are incremental. Which of the following would most likely resolve the issue?

Answer options

• A. Changing the backup window
• B. Performing incremental weekly backups
• C. Increasing the backup storage
• D. Running synthetic full weekly backups

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Running synthetic full weekly backups can help to consolidate the data and reduce the amount of data processed during the backup window, thus speeding up the backup process. Changing the backup window may not necessarily resolve the duration issue, while performing incremental weekly backups would not address the underlying problem of the lengthy full backup. Increasing the backup storage does not impact the backup speed.
