CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-003) — Question 257

When designing a three-node, load-balanced application, a systems administrator must ensure each node runs on a different physical server for HA purposes. Which of the following does the systems administrator need to configure?

Answer options

• A. Round-robin methods
• B. Live migration
• C. Anti-affinity rule
• D. Priority queues

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, the Anti-affinity rule, which ensures that nodes are not placed on the same physical server, enhancing high availability. Options A and D do not pertain to the physical placement of nodes, while B, Live migration, refers to moving running instances rather than their initial placement.
