ITPEC IP October 2019 Question 19
ITPEC IP October 2019 — Question 19 of 100
Restoration to Tuesday closing requires Sunday's full backup plus both Monday's and Tuesday's incremental backups. The full backup establishes the base. Monday's incremental contains changes since Sunday, and Tuesday's contains only changes since Monday, so both increments must be applied in order.
Answer (a)
Why not others:
- omitting the full backup leaves no complete base image
- applying Tuesday without Monday omits changes captured only in Monday's increment
- neither incremental file alone contains all data needed for the target state
Key rule: Restore an incremental-backup chain from the latest full backup, then apply every subsequent incremental backup chronologically.
