CompTIA Server+ (SK0-005) — Question 342
Which of the following BEST describes a disaster recovery site with a target storage array that receives replication traffic and servers that are only powered on in the event of a disaster?
Answer options
- A. Cloud
- B. Cold
- C. Hot
- D. Warm
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is D, Warm, because a warm site has a storage array that can receive replication traffic and servers that are powered on only when a disaster occurs, making it a balanced option between cost and readiness. A Cold site (B) lacks powered servers and immediate availability, while a Hot site (C) keeps servers running at all times, which is not the case here. A Cloud site (A) does not specifically describe the state of powered servers and replication traffic in the same context.
