Episode 105 — Testing the Theory — Verification and Adjustment Techniques
This episode focuses on testing the theory of probable cause to confirm whether it explains the observed issue. We discuss performing controlled changes, using diagnostic tools, and monitoring system behavior for improvement or recurrence of the problem. If the theory is confirmed, the next step is implementing a permanent fix; if not, the theory must be revised and retested.
We provide real-world and exam-relevant scenarios, such as swapping a suspected faulty NIC to see if connectivity improves or running memory diagnostics to confirm RAM errors. Troubleshooting considerations include minimizing disruption during testing and documenting results for later review. This skill ensures candidates can validate their assumptions before committing to corrective actions.
