30s - Q5
What does Redundancy mean?
Doing things in a silly way
Having extra components to make the system more complicated and harder to use
Having extra components so that a system can continue to work even if individual components fail, for example by having more than one path between any two connected devices in a network.
A simpler system that may fail but is easier to use
30s - Q6
What does Fault Tolerant mean?
When a system can continue to function even in the event of individual component failures.
When a system can continue to function always because nothing ever breaks
When a system frequently breaks down
When a system never works
30s - Q7
The following figure represents a network of physically linked devices labeled P through S. A line between two devices indicates a connection. Devices can communicate only through the connections shown.
Which of the following statements best explains the ability of the network to provide fault tolerance?
The network is considered fault-tolerant because there are redundant paths between each pair of devices.
The network is not considered fault-tolerant because it provides more paths than are needed.
The network is considered fault-tolerant because it guarantees that no individual component will fail.
The network is not considered fault-tolerant because it relies on physical connections.
