CompTIA Server+ (SK0-005) — Question 199

An administrator is helping to replicate a large amount of data between two Windows servers. The administrator is unsure how much data has already been transferred. Which of the following will BEST ensure all the data is copied consistently?

Answer options

• A. rsync
• B. copy
• C. scp
• D. robocopy

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, robocopy, as it is specifically designed for Windows environments and includes features like resuming interrupted copies and verifying file integrity. While rsync is effective for Unix/Linux systems, and copy and scp are less robust for large data transfers, they do not provide the same level of consistency and error correction that robocopy offers.
