CompTIA Server+ (SK0-005) — Question 106

A systems administrator has noticed performance degradation on a company file server, and one of the disks on it has a solid amber light. The administrator logs on to the disk utility and sees the array is rebuilding. Which of the following should the administrator do NEXT once the rebuild is finished?

Answer options

• A. Restore the server from a snapshot.
• B. Restore the server from backup.
• C. Swap the drive and initialize the disk.
• D. Swap the drive and initialize the array.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as after a disk rebuild, the next logical step is to swap the faulty drive and initialize it to ensure proper functionality. Options A and B involve restoring data, which is unnecessary if the drive can be replaced and initialized. Option D is incorrect because initializing the array implies starting over, which is not needed in this scenario.
