Answer / guest
Answer: A
A cold site is ready to receive equipment but does not offer
any components at the site in advance of the need. A warm
site is an offsite backup facility that is configured
partially with network connections and selected peripheral
equipment, such as disk and tape units, controllers and
CPUs, to operate an information processing facility. A
duplicate information processing facility is a dedicated,
self-developed recovery site that can back up critical
applications.
