A technician is implementing a planned change that has been approved by the CAB. The change management plan includes a backout plan. What should the backout plan specify?

Answer choices

Why each option matters

Good practice is not just finding the correct option. The wrong answers often show the exact trap the exam wants you to fall into.

A

Best answer

The steps to return the system to its original state if the change fails

A backout plan provides a clear procedure to undo the change and restore normal operations.

B

Distractor review

The reasons the change might fail and who approved it

Risk assessments and approval details are part of the change request, not specifically the backout plan.

C

Distractor review

The new configuration settings after successful implementation

That is the target state, not the backout plan.

D

Distractor review

The troubleshooting steps to diagnose issues during the change

Troubleshooting is separate from a backout plan; the backout plan is a fallback if troubleshooting fails.

Answer analysis

Why the other options are wrong

Understanding why incorrect options are tempting is as important as knowing the correct answer.

  • The reasons the change might fail and who approved it

    Risk assessments and approval details are part of the change request, not specifically the backout plan.

  • The new configuration settings after successful implementation

    That is the target state, not the backout plan.

  • The troubleshooting steps to diagnose issues during the change

    Troubleshooting is separate from a backout plan; the backout plan is a fallback if troubleshooting fails.

Common exam trap

Common exam trap: answer the scenario, not the keyword

Many certification questions include familiar terms but test a specific constraint. Read the exact wording before choosing an answer that is generally true but wrong for this case.

Technical deep dive

How to think about this question

This question should be treated as a scenario, not a definition check. Identify the problem, the constraint and the best action. Then compare each option against those facts.

KKey Concepts to Remember

  • Read the scenario before looking for a memorised answer.
  • Find the constraint that changes the correct option.
  • Eliminate answers that are true in general but not in this case.
  • Use explanations to understand the rule behind the answer.

TExam Day Tips

  • Underline the problem statement mentally.
  • Watch for words such as best, first, most likely and least administrative effort.
  • Review why wrong options are wrong, not only why the correct option is correct.

Key takeaway

Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.

FAQ

Questions learners often ask

What does this 220-1102 question test?

Read the scenario before looking for a memorised answer.

What is the correct answer to this question?

The correct answer is: The steps to return the system to its original state if the change fails — A backout plan (or rollback plan) is a documented set of steps that outline exactly how to revert the changes if something goes wrong during implementation. It should specify the steps to restore the system to its previous state, including any commands, files, and validation procedures. The backout plan does not list the reasons for failure or approval details; those are part of the overall change request.

What should I do if I get this 220-1102 question wrong?

Identify which 220-1102 exam domain this question belongs to, then review the specific concept being tested. Practise related questions in that domain and focus on understanding why each wrong answer is tempting — not just why the correct answer is right.
