CompTIA Server+ (SK0-005) — Question 242

Which of the following life-cycle management phases deals with a server that is no longer in operation?

Answer options

• A. End-of-life
• B. Disposal
• C. Usage
• D. Procurement

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, Disposal, as this phase specifically involves the process of properly handling servers that are no longer operational. End-of-life refers to the point when a server is retired, but disposal goes further by addressing how to safely and responsibly dispose of that hardware. Usage and Procurement are unrelated to the status of a server that is out of operation.
