Exin Exam CDCP Topic 9 Question 28 Discussion

Actual exam question for Exin's CDCP exam

Question #: 28
Topic #: 9

How many monitoring points should be used in Temperature Measurement?

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

According to the EPI Data Centre Professional (CDCP) Reference Materials, the recommended number of monitoring points for temperature measurement in a data centre is 3 per rack: one at the top, one at the middle, and one at the bottom1. This is to ensure that the temperature distribution within the rack is uniform and within the acceptable range for the equipment. The temperature sensors should be placed at the front of the rack, where the air enters the equipment, and not at the back, where the hot air exits1.

I'd say A. Why overcomplicate things? One sensor is all you need. Unless, of course, you're trying to measure the temperature of a volcano or something. Then maybe you'd want a few more, just to be safe. Wouldn't want to get too close to the fiery abyss, you know?

I'm going with C. Three's the magic number, right? Covers all the bases without getting too complicated. Plus, it's a nice odd number. Keeps things interesting.

I believe using 3 monitoring points would be even better for Temperature Measurement.

I agree with Santos, having 2 monitoring points will provide more accurate data.

D is the way to go, my friend. Gotta have that redundancy, you know? Can't trust a single point of failure when it comes to temperature monitoring. Imagine if your one sensor goes kaput, then what? Chaos ensues!

Hmm, I think the answer is B. Why would we need more than 2 monitoring points for temperature measurement? It's not like we're trying to map the climate of the Arctic or something.
