Which of the following must exist to ensure the viability of a duplicate information processing facility?

A.
The site is near the primary site to ensure quick and efficient recovery.

B.
The site contains the most advanced hardware available.

C.
The workload of the primary site is monitored to ensure adequate backup is available.

D.
The hardware is tested when it is installed to ensure it is working properly.

Explanation:
Resource availability must be assured. The workload of the site must be monitored to ensure that
availability for emergency backup use is not impaired. The site chosen should not be subject to the
same natural disaster as the primary site. In addition, a reasonable compatibility of
hardware/software must exist to serve as a basis for backup. The latest or newest hardware may
not adequately serve this need. Testing the hardware when the site is established is essential, but
regular testing of the actual backup data is necessary to ensure the operation will continue to
perform as planned.
