QuestionQ94

Database Deployment

An analyst directly shared a database from a workstation. One week later, users could not access that database but could still access other shared resources. Which of the following is the most likely reason that the shared database is unavailable?

  • A The IP addresses for the sharing workstation changed.
  • B The DNS changed the workstation's name.
  • C The IP addresses for the users' workstations changed.
  • D The DNS permissions changed.
Explanation

A workstation using dynamically assigned addressing can receive a new IP address after its DHCP lease changes. If users access the shared database through the workstation’s prior IP address, the database share becomes unreachable even though other shared resources remain available.
