CompTIA Server+ (SK0-005) — Question 67

Which of the following can be BEST described as the amount of time a company can afford to be down during recovery from an outage?

Answer options

• A. SLA
• B. MTBF
• C. RTO
• D. MTTR

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is RTO (Recovery Time Objective), as it specifically measures the maximum acceptable downtime during recovery. SLA (Service Level Agreement) pertains to the expected service standards, MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) indicates the average time between failures, and MTTR (Mean Time to Repair) refers to the average time taken to fix a failure, none of which directly address recovery time tolerance.
