Pilot light requires the minimal core system to be current to enable quick scaling.Step 2: Understand consequences of outdated systems
If not updated, recovery time increases as manual updates are needed during failover.Step 3: Exclude other options
Costs and backup corruption are unrelated; scaling down applies to warm standby, not pilot light.Final Answer:
Recovery time increases due to outdated configurations and software -> Option CQuick Check:
Outdated pilot light delays recovery [OK]
Quick Trick: Outdated pilot light core delays recovery [OK]
