How should the IT staff configure the Checkpoints settings for troubleshooting purposes?

For troubleshooting purposes, enabling checkpoints is essential as it allows the IT staff to capture the state of the system at specific points in time. By selecting "Enable checkpoints" and then choosing "Standard checkpoints," the system can create snapshots of the configuration and running state of applications, which can be invaluable when diagnosing issues or reverting to a previous state after changes have been made.

Standard checkpoints are versatile and provide a good balance of detail and performance, making them suitable for most troubleshooting situations. They allow for quick rollbacks and easier testing of configurations without impacting the production environment significantly. In contrast, Production checkpoints, while useful in certain scenarios, may not provide the same level of detail needed for deep troubleshooting, and Automatic checkpoints could potentially create too many snapshots, which may complicate the troubleshooting process.

Therefore, the selected configuration of enabling checkpoints and utilizing Standard checkpoints aligns perfectly with best practices for effective troubleshooting.
