Why each option

The primary goals of capacity planning involve ensuring adequate resources for future growth, accurately sizing systems for expected loads, and diagnosing existing or potential capacity bottlenecks.

AEnsuring sufficient resources for growth.Correct

Capacity planning proactively ensures that systems have enough resources (CPU, memory, storage, network) to handle anticipated increases in workload or user demand, supporting future growth.

BSelecting a computer vendor.

Selecting a computer vendor is a procurement decision, influenced by capacity planning requirements, but not a direct goal or activity of capacity planning itself.

CSizing computers for a specific load.Correct

A core aspect of capacity planning is accurately determining the appropriate hardware and software configurations required to meet specific performance and availability targets for a given workload.

DDiagnosing capacity problems.Correct

Capacity planning involves analyzing current resource usage to identify existing bottlenecks or predict where future capacity problems might occur, allowing for proactive intervention.

ETroubleshooting a software problem.

Troubleshooting a software problem focuses on debugging code or configuration issues, which is distinct from the system-level resource analysis and forecasting done in capacity planning.
