An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is designed to provide uninterrupted power to critical systems in the event of a power failure, allowing for continued operation or safe shutdown.

A warm site involves a fully functional backup site that can be activated quickly with minimal setup, providing a balance between cost and recovery time.

Recovery point objective (RPO) is used to evaluate the efficiency of a backup strategy by determining the maximum acceptable amount of time that can elapse before data loss occurs.

Recovery point objective (RPO) defines the maximum acceptable amount of data loss measured in time, determining the amount of data that can be lost during a disaster.

Mean time to repair (MTTR) measures the average time taken to repair a failed component or device in a network, indicating the efficiency of the recovery process.

The primary purpose of MTBF is to measure the average time between failures of a component or device, indicating its reliability and predicting its lifespan.

A cold site involves minimal setup and equipment, requiring the longest time to become operational as it needs to be fully configured and equipped before use.

An active-passive setup involves having one primary active server and one or more standby servers that take over in case of a failure, ensuring redundancy and minimal downtime.

Load balancing is primarily used to distribute network traffic across multiple servers or resources to ensure optimal data transmission, reduce latency, and prevent any single server from being overwhelmed.

The main purpose of using VRRP in a network is to provide automatic assignment of available IP routers to participating hosts, ensuring high availability and redundancy.

The primary benefit of using NIC teaming is to increase network redundancy and bandwidth by combining multiple network interfaces into a single logical interface.

NIC teaming involves using multiple network interface cards to increase redundancy and bandwidth, improving network performance and fault tolerance.

Multipathing involves having multiple physical paths to data storage to improve fault tolerance, ensuring continuous data availability even if one path fails.

A power distribution unit (PDU) is used to ensure network connectivity remains stable by distributing power among multiple devices, managing power loads and improving efficiency.

Load balancing involves distributing network traffic across multiple servers to ensure no single server becomes a bottleneck, improving performance and reliability.

Active-active ensures that multiple servers or resources are all actively serving requests simultaneously, providing load balancing and fault tolerance.

A hot site is fully equipped and ready to take over operations immediately in the event of a disaster, providing minimal downtime and quick recovery.

A cloud site is entirely dependent on cloud services and requires no physical infrastructure, providing flexibility and scalability for disaster recovery.

Recovery time objective (RTO) defines the maximum acceptable amount of time to restore a system after a failure, ensuring business continuity and minimal disruption.

The primary function of a generator in a disaster recovery plan is to provide a backup power source during extended power outages, ensuring continued operation of critical systems.

Active-active refers to having systems or resources available to take over immediately in case of a failure, with no manual intervention required, ensuring continuous availability and load balancing.

The purpose of using multiple Internet service providers (ISPs) in a high availability setup is to provide redundancy and ensure continuous Internet connectivity in case one ISP fails.

Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) is used to provide automatic failover for network gateways in the event of a failure, ensuring high availability.

Active-passive involves having a standby system that is activated only when the primary system fails, providing redundancy and fault tolerance.

HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) is crucial for maintaining a controlled environment and preventing overheating of network devices, ensuring optimal performance and longevity.
