A hypervisor is a software layer that manages and allocates resources for virtual machines (VMs) on a physical host machine. A technician can use a hypervisor to adjust the resource allocation for a virtual workstation, such as increasing the amount of RAM assigned to it from the available pool of memory on the host machine. This can improve the performance and functionality of the virtual workstation without requiring any hardware changes or modifications. Reference: (page 59)

A cable tester and a crimper are the best tools to execute the task of replacing all RJ45 cables in a customer environment. A cable tester can be used to check the continuity and quality of a cable, and a crimper can be used to attach RJ45 connectors to the ends of a cable. An optical fiber tester is a tool that can be used to test fiber optic cables, which are not RJ45 cables. Scissors are not a tool for replacing cables, but for cutting them. A coaxial cable is a type of cable that has a single copper conductor at its center, which is not an RJ45 cable either. A screwdriver is not a tool for replacing cables, but for fastening or loosening screws.

Server message block (SMB) is the setting on the multifunction printer (MFP) that the technician should edit to best address the user’s request of making the scans viewable on the network for the entire department. SMB is a network protocol that allows file sharing and printer access among different devices on a network. The technician can configure the MFP to scan to a shared folder on the network using SMB. Scan to email is a feature that allows the MFP to send scanned documents as email attachments, which may not be viewable by everyone in the department. Secured prints is a feature that allows the MFP to print documents only after entering a PIN or password, which does not address the user’s request. Web services is a feature that allows the MFP to access online services such as cloud storage or email, which may not be viewable by everyone in the department either. Printer share is not a setting on the MFP, but a feature that allows a device to share its printer with other devices on a network

RAID stands for Redundant Array of Independent Disks, which is a technology that combines multiple disks into a logical unit to improve performance, reliability, or both. There are different types of RAID levels that use different methods of data distribution and redundancy.

RAID 0 is a level that stripes data across multiple disks without any redundancy. It offers the highest performance but no fault tolerance. If any disk fails, the entire array is lost.

RAID 1 is a level that mirrors data across two disks. It offers the lowest performance but the highest fault tolerance. It can survive the failure of one disk.

RAID 5 is a level that stripes data across multiple disks with parity information. It offers a balance between performance and fault tolerance. It can survive the failure of one disk, but not two or more disks.

RAID 10 is a level that combines RAID 1 and RAID 0. It creates a striped array of mirrored pairs. It offers high performance and high fault tolerance. It can survive the failure of one disk in each pair, or multiple disks in different pairs.

Therefore, if the server administrator wants to rebuild the array to withstand a potential multidrive failure in the future, RAID 10 is the most likely choice.
