CompTIA Server+ (SK0-004) — Question 15

An administrator is deploying 1000 new servers in a datacenter. A vendor will install the servers on racks and connect cables. Which of the following technologies would BEST for the administrator to use to install operating systems to all 1000 servers in the shortest time possible? (Select two.)

Answer options

• A. SFTP
• B. TFTP
• C. PXE
• D. UDP
• E. USB
• F. DVD

Correct answer: C

Explanation

PXE (Preboot Execution Environment) is the most suitable method for deploying operating systems to multiple servers simultaneously over a network, making it efficient for large-scale installations. While TFTP can be used in conjunction with PXE for transferring files, SFTP, USB, and DVD are not as efficient for mass deployment compared to network-based solutions.
