CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-003) — Question 347

A private IaaS administrator is receiving reports that all newly provisioned Linux VMs are running an earlier version of the OS than they should be. The administrator reviews the automation scripts to troubleshoot the issue and determines the scripts ran successfully. Which of the following is the MOST likely cause of the issue?

Answer options

• A. API version incompatibility
• B. Misconfigured script account
• C. Wrong template selection
• D. Incorrect provisioning script indentation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as selecting the wrong template could lead to deploying an outdated OS version. Options A, B, and D are less likely to be the cause because they would typically result in script execution failures or errors, rather than silently deploying an incorrect OS version.
