- A
Perform regular backup restoration tests
Restoring backups verifies data integrity and helps measure RTO/RPO.
- B
Conduct scheduled DR drills in a separate environment
Drills in isolated environments test recovery without affecting production.
- C
Run load tests against production systems
Why wrong: Load tests stress performance, not disaster recovery.
- D
Use chaos engineering to inject failures in production
Chaos engineering tests resilience and can help validate RTO/RPO in a controlled manner.
- E
Enable continuous monitoring of production metrics
Why wrong: Monitoring does not test recovery procedures.

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.
Detailed technical explanation
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.
Real-world example
How this comes up in practice
A practitioner preparing for the CV0-004 exam encounters this exact type of scenario on the job. The correct answer here is not the most general option — it is the best answer for the specific constraint described. Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option. Real exam questions reward reading the full scenario before eliminating options, because the constraint defines which answer fits.
