After a complete restoration of a server, and you compare pre-disaster and post-disaster baselines, which of the following scenarios represents the most favorable results or position? Choose all correct options.
A.
The pre-disaster and post-disaster baseline results are the same.
B.
The post-disaster baseline indicates that server network performance is quite below the pre-disaster baseline.
C.
The post-disaster baseline indicates an improvement over the pre-disaster baseline.
D.
A and C.
Explanation:
When comparing pre-disaster and post-disaster baselines, you would want to be in a situation where the pre-disaster and post-disaster baseline results are the same, or where post-disaster baseline indicates an improvement over the pre-disaster baseline. The latter hardly ever occurs, except in cases where new devices or equipment was added after the most recent pre-disaster baseline was performed.
Incorrect Answers:
B: The least favored position to be in is where post-disaster baseline indicates that server network performance is quite below the pre-disaster baseline.
