An administrator has received approval for a change request for an upcoming server deployment. Which of the following steps should be completed NEXT?
Once the change request has been approved, one of the essential steps that should be completed next is performing a risk analysis. This step ensures that any potential risks associated with the upcoming server deployment are identified and mitigated before implementation, thus securing a smooth and successful deployment process. Implementing the deployment and verifying end user acceptance would follow the risk analysis step.
Look at the order of change management phases. C= END USER ACCEPTANCE. 1. Request forms 2. Purpose of change 3. Scope of the change 4. Date and Time of the change 5. Affective systems/ impact 6. Risk analysis 7. Change board approval 8. Finally end user acceptance.
7. Change board approval 8. Finally end user acceptance.
I think it's B. Now I know the change management phases and I dislike that Implementing isn't include in the order but it's just "implied" but this is word from word from Professor Messer. "Once you receive this approval, the administrative part of the change control process is over, and now you have to actually implement the change. And one of the last steps of the change control process is having the end users confirm that the change was successful." https://www.professormesser.com/free-a-plus-training/220-1102/220-1102-video/change-management-220-1102/#
How do you get end user acceptance if you haven't implemented the change? End user acceptance is confirming the change was successful. You cannot determine if it was successful unless you implement it. I am going with B. Implement the change.
I watched the professor's video again and he says the next step after board approval is to implement the change. It makes sense to me that you would have to implement the change before any end user acceptance can happen. I say B.
You wouldn't need end user acceptance if no changes happened. so you need changes to happen right? so you implement the changes
"Once you receive this approval, the administrative part of the change control process is over, AND NOW YOU HAVE TO ACTUALLY IMPLEMENT THE CHANGE. And one of the last steps of the change control process is having the end user confirm that the change was successful." - Professor Messer So the next step is implement the deployment. Answer - B
POV: Dont bother asking Chat GPT because you will be further confused! 😂 It said the next step is to perform risk analysis, so what exactly was the board approving in the first place?? 😂 😆
The next step after receiving approval for a change request for an upcoming server deployment is to implement the deployment. So the answer is (B). The other options are important steps in the deployment process, but they should be completed in the following order: Perform a risk analysis: This should be done before the deployment to identify and assess any potential risks. Implement the deployment: This is the step where the server is actually deployed. Verify end user acceptance: This should be done after the deployment to ensure that the server is working as expected and meeting the needs of the end users. Document the lessons learned: This should be done after the deployment to capture any knowledge gained during the process that can be used to improve future deployments.
Cannot implement without end user acceptance. Upon approval the final step is end user acceptance so the answer is C.
based on glenpharmd, ,makes sense.
1. Request forms 2. Purpose of change 3. Scope of the change 4. Date and Time of the change 5. Affective systems/ impact 6. Risk analysis 7. Change board approval 8. Finally end user acceptance.
When will you implement your changes? Seriously starting to think some sysadmins never implement anything and just schedule meetings.
HAHA, exactly. "Implement the deployment" is not one the steps. What?...
Weird as it is, Implement the change is actually NOT one of the official steps. Very strange that it is not a step - but it isn't.
8. Finally end user acceptance.
1. Request forms 2. Purpose of change 3. Scope of the change 4. Date and Time of the change 5. Affective systems/ impact 6. Risk analysis 7. Change board approval 8. Finally end-user acceptance
Definitely C
