CompTIA Server+ (SK0-005) — Question 65

A server administrator has been creating new VMs one by one. The administrator notices the system requirements are very similar, even with different applications. Which of the following would help the administrator accomplish this task in the SHORTEST amount of time and meet the system requirements?

Answer options

• A. Snapshot
• B. Deduplication
• C. System Restore
• D. Template

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Using a Template allows the administrator to create multiple VMs based on a pre-configured image, significantly speeding up the deployment process. Snapshots are useful for capturing the state of a VM but do not facilitate the creation of new VMs. Deduplication reduces storage requirements and System Restore is not suited for VM creation.
