CompTIA Server+ (SK0-004) — Question 54

A physical server at a remote location has failed POST. A reboot of the server is required to fix the issue, but the systems administrator is unable to access the operating system. Which of the following tools should the administrator use to reboot the server?

Answer options

• A. SSH
• B. RDP
• C. VNC
• D. iLO

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, iLO, as it provides out-of-band management capabilities, allowing the administrator to reboot the server even if the operating system is inaccessible. The other options, SSH, RDP, and VNC, require the operating system to be running and cannot facilitate a reboot in this situation.
