Question

To ensure that critical systems is not lost during a failure, it is important that which of the following be true?

A. MTTF < MTTR.
B. MTTR < RTO.
C. RPO < MTTF.
D. RTO = RPO.

Answer 1

The answer is D.

Critical systems is not lost during a failure if RTO = RPO.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recovery Point Objective (RPO) and Recovery Time Objective (RTO) are two of the most important parameters of a disaster recovery or data protection plan.

Recovery Point Objective (RPO) is the amount of time that it might take during a disruption before the amount of data loss during that duration exceeds the Business Continuity Plan’s maximum allowable threshold.

The Recovery Time Objective (RTO) is the period of time and a service level within which a business process must be restored after a disaster occurs in order to avoid unacceptable consequences associated with a disruption in continuity of business.
