Wouldn't the Tech already have network connectivity via remote connection? So if he's already connected to the server remotely then he has network connectivity. Now I would check Dependencies issues with YUM. Just thinking outload.

If YUM is operations but just getting errors wouldn't the dependencies already be satisfied? The link I posted is from 9 years ago and is a situation where C is correct

Selected Answer: C
Not enough info, what are the error messages? Classic vague CompTIA question. YUM is designed to automatically install linux package dependencies so its not D. The admin is remotely connected, so it has network connectivity, does not state 'internet' connectivity so its not A. B makes no sense at all. Most likely C just from process of elimination I'm guessing, but its CompTIA so who knows what they think is 'correct'.

C is the correct answer to this question. It is efficient to start with the more basic and most likely root cause of the problem as the first point to check. Checking disk capacity is a good first step because it is easy and quick.
