Pre Test Block 2 Flashcards
study
Software that runs virtual machine and can install or run multiple VMs
Hypervisor
Hard drive interface providing faster transfer times, thinner more flexible cabling, and easier plug-an-play connections
SATA
Specialized storage device or group of storage devices providing centralized fault-tolerant data storage for a network.
NAS
Device that resides on the LAN as an independent network node and has its own IP address.
NAS
Import benefit is its ability to provide multiple clients on the network with access to the same file
NAS
_____ is appropriate for organizations requiring fault-tolerance and fast data access
NAS
Specialized high-speed network of storage devices and switches connected to servers or computer systems.
SAN
Not only are _____ extremely fault-tolerant but they are also extremely fast
SANs
Fibre channel connects devices within the _____
SAN
This storage type uses a faster more efficient method of writing data. Best suited to environments with huge quantities of data that must always be quickly available
SAN
What are the two types of RAID
Hardware and Software
How many levels does RAID have
5 (0,1,5,6,10)
Which RAID level has no fault-tolerance
RAID 0
What RAID level carries out mirroring or duplexing where the data on a disk is copied onto one disk or a pair of disks
RAID 1
Which RAID is the most common/popular
RAID 5
Both data and parity information are striped across 3 or more drives. Is what level of RAID
RAID 5
Has high read/write speed.
Good capacity and cost effective.
It’s not very efficient with large data transfers
RAID 5
Two parity block are written in this level to help in the data recovery process. Disadvantage the performance is not very good for small data transfers. Extension of RAID 5
RAID 6
What is the first event in the information processing cycle
Inputting data (IPOS)
Acquisition, Data Entry, Validation are sub-stages of ______
Input
Any peripheral device helping feed data and control signals to a computer system
Input Devices
What are the two types of Input Devices
Direct input devices (Touchscreen), Indirect pointers (Mouse)
Types of peripheral hardware connected to the computer either using cables or over a wireless network
Output Devices
Create a hard copy rendition of a digitally rendered design
Plotters
_____ technology allows for saving space and increasing the efficiency of the servers
Blade
_________ provides a central connection point for each blade
Backplane
Combination of software applications and an operating system tricked into thinking it has its own dedicated hardware
Virtual Machine (VM)
_________ simply separates hardware from the software
Virtualization
Software that runs the virtual machines
Hypervisor
Which hypervisor type runs directly on top of the system hardware
Type 1 (bare metal)
Which hypervisor type runs on a hosted operating system
Type 2 (Hosted)
Supports higher level of services to establish trust in virtualized environments
vTPM
Most common type of virtualization
Server Virtualization
Partitioning of a physical server into smaller virtual servers. Hides the servers hardware resources.
Server Virtualization
One of the most common applications of virtualization
Server consolidation
uses a single shared OS to host many users simultaneously is what virtualization
Operating-system-level Virtualization
_____________ also called container virtualization
Operating-system-level Virtualization
This virtualization software
presents a software representation of the underlying hardware an operating system would typically interact with
Hardware Emulation
Virtualization technology used to separate a desktop computer environment from the physical device used to access it
Client Virtualization
__________ also known as Terminal Services or Remote Desktop Services
Presentation Virtualization
