CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-003) — Question 348

A systems administrator is working on the backup schedule for a critical business application that is running in a private cloud. Which of the following would help the administrator schedule the frequency of the backup job?

Answer options

• A. RPO
• B. MTTR
• C. SLA
• D. RTO

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is RPO (Recovery Point Objective), which indicates the maximum acceptable amount of data loss measured in time, helping to determine how frequently backups should occur. MTTR (Mean Time to Repair) relates to recovery time rather than backup frequency, SLA (Service Level Agreement) outlines service expectations but does not dictate backup schedules, and RTO (Recovery Time Objective) focuses on the time taken to restore operations rather than backup frequency.
