Question

Which of the following is NOT a common backup method?

Options

  • AFull backup method
  • BDaily backup method
  • CIncremental backup method
  • DDifferential backup method

Explanation

The three standard, widely recognized backup methods in IT are: Full backup (backs up all data), Incremental backup (backs up only data changed since the last backup of any type), and Differential backup (backs up all data changed since the last full backup). 'Daily backup method' is not a recognized backup type - it describes a schedule or frequency (when backups occur), not a backup methodology (what data gets copied and how the archive bit is handled). Confusing backup schedules with backup types is a common exam distractor.
