CompTIA Updated SK0-005 Exam Questions and Answers by keira

A loop is a programming construct used to repeat a block of code multiple times. In this case, if a function needs to run ten times, a loop (such as a for loop or while loop) would be the appropriate choice.

Loop (Answer A): This allows the function to be executed repeatedly without writing redundant code.

Variable (Option B): A variable is used to store data, but it doesn’t handle repetition.

Comparator (Option C): Comparators are used to compare values, not for repeating code.

Conditional (Option D): Conditionals (if, else) are used for decision-making, not repeating actions multiple times.

Enabling open file backups allows the backup software to copy files that are currently open or in use by applications. This ensures that even if a file is actively being modified during the backup process, it will still be included in the backup.

Advantages:

Ensures consistency of backed-up data, especially for files that are frequently accessed or modified.

Prevents data loss due to files being skipped during backup.

The goal is to achieve 2TB total storage, high performance, and support for one drive failure. Using RAID 5 or RAID 10 can provide redundancy while maximizing performance.

1, 2, 4, 5, and 6 (Answer C): This selection includes the highest-capacity and highest-performance drives (600GB and 500GB at high RPM speeds). Using these drives will provide the necessary capacity (500GB + 600GB + 500GB + 600GB + 600GB = 2.8TB) and performance with one drive redundancy (RAID 5 or 10).

Other options (A, B, D): These combinations either lack the necessary capacity or mix slower drives (7,200rpm), reducing overall performance.

Scope-based authentication is a method of restricting access to resources based on the location, network, or device of the user. It can be used to prevent unauthorized access from outside the organization’s network or from untrusted devices. In this case, the user can connect to the database server from the home office, which is likely within the scope of the authentication policy, but not from the hotel room, which is outside the scope.
