CompTIA Server+ (SK0-005) — Question 350

In which of the following media rotation schemes are daily, weekly, and monthly backup media utilized in a first-in, first-out method?

Answer options

• A. Waterfall
• B. Synthetic full
• C. Tower of Hanoi
• D. Grandfather-father-son

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The Grandfather-father-son scheme is designed to use a hierarchy of backup media, allowing for a structured rotation where older backups are replaced in a first-in, first-out fashion. The other options, such as Waterfall and Tower of Hanoi, do not follow this specific rotation methodology and thus do not utilize a first-in, first-out approach.
