    Using a hot fail-over system instead of a cold fail-over system can result in increased license costs. This is because in a hot fail-over system, both the primary and backup systems are running simultaneously, requiring licenses for both systems. In contrast, in a cold fail-over system, the backup system remains inactive until it is needed, thus only requiring a single license. Therefore, opting for a hot fail-over system can potentially lead to higher expenses in terms of licensing fees.

    You are planning your BusinessObjects Enterprise deployment and determine that your Company has 3000 reports that must run overnight between 8 p.m. and 6 a.m. Each report takes five minutes to run. How many single-processor Crystal Reports Job Servers should you include in your deployment in order to meet the expected scheduling requirements?

    • One

    • Two

    • Five

    • Ten

    Correct Answer
    A. Five
    Explanation
    Based on the given information, there are 3000 reports that need to run overnight between 8 p.m. and 6 a.m., with each report taking five minutes to run. To meet the scheduling requirements, it is necessary to have enough Crystal Reports Job Servers to handle the workload. Since each report takes five minutes to run, and there are 10 hours available for the reports to run (from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m.), the total time available is 10 hours x 60 minutes = 600 minutes. Therefore, dividing the total available time (600 minutes) by the time it takes to run one report (5 minutes), we get 600/5 = 120. This means that a single server can handle 120 reports. Since there are 3000 reports, we need 3000/120 = 25 servers. However, the options provided are one, two, five, and ten servers. Among these options, the closest number to 25 is five. Therefore, the correct answer is five.
