Answer:

C. 99.99 percent availability

Explanation:

The downtime should be between 45 minutes and 1 hour. Because the server needs at least 45 minutes to be up again after maintenance. On the other hand there is a restriction that downtime in a year cannot exceed 1 hour.

  • One year has 365 ×24 × 60 = 525600 minutes.
  • 99.99% availability means (100% - 99.99%) × 525600 = 52.56 minutes downtime.
  • Other availability percentages are either too short (less than 45 min.) or too long (more than 1 hour)
