What kind of maintenance may involve automated scripts to manage server processes?

  1. Debugging

  2. Rollout

  3. Configuration

  4. Patch management

The correct answer is: Patch management

The correct answer relates to patch management, which often involves automated scripts to streamline the process of applying updates and patches to server systems. Patch management ensures that software is kept up to date to protect against vulnerabilities, enhance features, and improve overall system performance. Automated scripts can handle tasks such as checking for available patches, downloading them, and applying them consistently across multiple servers, which greatly reduces manual effort and mitigates the risk of human error. While debugging typically involves identifying and fixing bugs in the application code, it is a more manual and specialized process focused on the resolution rather than routine maintenance. Rollout pertains to the deployment of new software or updates, which may also involve some automation, but is more specific to the initial introduction of changes rather than ongoing maintenance. Configuration involves setting up system parameters and options, which can also be automated but is not primarily focused on managing server processes in the context of maintenance.
