A system maintaining its integrity while accepting a temporary halt in its operation is said to be in a state of___________________?
Correct answer: D. Fail Safe
- A. Full Fault Tolerance
- B. Graceful Degradation
- C. Fail Soft
- D. Fail Safe
Explanation
A fail-safe system preserves its integrity even when operation temporarily stops, typically moving to a safe state. Graceful degradation instead means continuing with reduced performance, so it is not the best choice here.
