A company is designing a data center environment where a critical requirement is highly available computing. Which of the following types of memory should an administrator choose to install in the servers?
Correct Answer:
B
ECC (Error Correcting Code) memory is a type of memory that can detect and correct errors that may occur during data transmission or storage. ECC memory is essential for high-availability computing, as it prevents data corruption and system crashes2. References: ECC Memory

A software developer used client-side virtualization on a server to configure a web application. Although the application is working locally on the software developer's PC, other users on the LAN are not able to access the application. Which of the following would allow other users to access the application?
Correct Answer:
A
Client-side virtualization is used to run an application or process on a separate virtual machine, isolated from the main operating system. To allow other users on the LAN to access the application, the software developer should configure a bridge networking connection between the virtual machine and the LAN. This will allow the virtual machine to communicate with other computers on the network. Application virtualization, virtual desktop, and site-to-site VPN are not necessary steps for allowing other users to access the application.

A technician needs to increase the available RAM on a virtual workstation. Which of the following should the technician do?
Correct Answer:
D
A hypervisor is a software layer that manages and allocates resources for virtual machines (VMs) on a physical host machine. A technician can use a hypervisor to adjust the resource allocation for a virtual workstation, such as increasing the amount of RAM assigned to it from the available pool of memory on the host machine. This can improve the performance and functionality of the virtual workstation without requiring any hardware changes or modifications.

In a SOHO environment, a user wants to make sensitive, scanned documents available to other users on the domain. The logs need to indicate who accessed the documents and at what time they were accessed. Which of the following settings should a technician set up on the MFP device?
Correct Answer:
D
The correct answer is D. SMB share.
SMB stands for Server Message Block, which is a network protocol that allows file and printer sharing among different devices on a local area network (LAN). An SMB share is a folder or drive that is shared using the SMB protocol and can be accessed by authorized users on the network. An MFP device is a multifunction printer that can perform multiple tasks, such as printing, scanning, copying, and faxing.
In a SOHO (small office/home office) environment, a user who wants to make sensitive, scanned documents available to other users on the domain can set up an SMB share on the MFP device. This way, the user can scan the documents to the SMB share and grant access permissions to the other users who need to view or edit them. The SMB share can also enable logging, which can record who accessed the documents and at what time they were accessed .
The other options are not the best settings for this scenario. Scan to email is a feature that allows the user to scan a document and send it as an email attachment to a recipient. This option may not be secure or convenient for sharing sensitive documents with multiple users on the domain. ADF tray stands for automatic document feeder tray, which is a component of an MFP device that can feed multiple pages of a document into the scanner or copier without manual intervention. This option is not related to sharing or logging scanned documents. PCL stands for Printer Command Language, which is a page description language that controls the layout and printing of documents. This option is not related to sharing or logging scanned documents either.
