ABackup and restore
BPilot light
CWarm standby
DCold site
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand recovery time objectives

    Warm standby runs systems ready to scale, so it recovers faster than pilot light or backup.
  2. Step 2: Compare strategies

    Backup and restore and cold site take longer; pilot light is faster but slower than warm standby.
  3. Final Answer:

    Warm standby -> Option C
  4. Quick Check:

    Shortest RTO = Warm standby A [OK]
Quick Trick: Warm standby recovers fastest among these options [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Choosing backup as fastest recovery
  • Confusing pilot light with warm standby speed
  • Assuming cold site is fast recovery
