Q14. A backup drive was created using dd to make a bit-for-bit copy. When the drive is inserted into an iSCSI target before it is booted up, the data appears to be missing. What happened?
- The backup drive is corrupted and needs to be re-created.
- When the backup drive was duplicated, the label was as well. When booted, the system mounted the old duplicated drive by its identical label.
- There is a conflict between the physical location of the backup drive and the original drive.
- The backup process went wrong, and the old drive was duplicated over the original drive.

- It will output the same 10-digit number, but every digit will be inside parentheses.
- It will output the entire 10-digit number inside parentheses.
- It will output the same 10-digit number, but the first 3 digits will be inside parentheses.
