  • 40. 

    Storing all supply interface system (SIFS) images for the purpose of backup into a local user file is a duplication of effort and an abuse of system resources because

    • A.

      Local user files are purged monthly

    • B.

      SIFS has built-in recovery and contingency procedures.

    • C.

      SIFS images are stored on the Supply Management System computer.

    • D.

      The Air Force Equipment Management Sytem receives and stores duplicate images.

    Correct Answer
    B. SIFS has built-in recovery and contingency procedures.
    Explanation
    Storing all SIFS images for backup into a local user file is unnecessary because SIFS already has its own recovery and contingency procedures in place. This means that in the event of any issues or data loss, SIFS is able to recover and restore the images without relying on the backup stored in the local user file. Therefore, storing duplicate images in the local user file is a duplication of effort and a waste of system resources.
