You want to update your server with the latest service pack. Before proceeding with a service pack update on your server, what is the most important and first task to be performed?
Explanation
Answer - A - Prior to installing a service pack update, you should perform a full backup of the server.
Key Takeaway: Service pack is an OS configuration update that may or may not work effectively at all times. Many times a service pack update can corrupt, slow down, or crash the system. Hence, it is vital to back up the server prior to making any changes that may result in a error condition. Once these are done, before applying the service pack, make sure you have the correct updates and review the documentation that comes with it.
