  1. In a technology recovery context, what does 'failback' refer to?

    Answer: Returning operations from the recovery site back to the restored primary site

    Failback is the process of transitioning operations from the temporary recovery or alternate site back to the primary site once it has been restored.

  2. Which of the following BEST describes a 'parallel test' in technology recovery exercises?

    Answer: Running recovery procedures against a sandboxed copy while production continues normally

    A parallel test activates the alternate site and validates recovery procedures without shutting down the primary production environment.

  3. A CRP is designing a recovery strategy for a tier-1 application with an RTO of 1 hour. Which recovery approach is MOST appropriate?

    Answer: Hot site with synchronous replication

    A 1-hour RTO requires a hot site with synchronous replication to ensure minimal data loss and near-immediate system availability.

  4. What is the purpose of an 'electronic vaulting' strategy in technology recovery?

    Answer: Automatically transmitting backup data to a remote site via network

    Electronic vaulting transmits backup copies to a remote location via network connections, replacing or supplementing physical tape transport.

  5. During a technology recovery activation, a team member proposes skipping a documented validation step to save time. What is the BEST response from the recovery leader?

    Answer: Require the step be completed because untested assumptions can cause secondary failures

    Skipping validation steps can introduce undetected errors that cause cascading failures, making adherence to documented procedures essential.

  6. Which of the following is the MOST important factor when selecting an alternate processing site location?

    Answer: Sufficient geographic separation to avoid the same regional disaster

    An alternate site must be geographically separated enough to remain unaffected by the same disaster that impacts the primary site.

  7. What role does a 'technical recovery team' play during a declared disaster?

    Answer: Executing the step-by-step technical procedures to restore IT systems and services

    The technical recovery team is responsible for the hands-on execution of IT restoration tasks as defined in the Technology Recovery Plan.
