The LogLevel directive is used in server Error log of the Apache Web server log. This directive is used to control the types of errors that are sent to the error log by constraining the severity level. Eight different levels are present in the LogLevel directive, which are shown below in order of their descending significance:

Note: When a certain level is specified, the messages from all other levels of higher significance will also be reported. For example, when LogLevel crit is specified, then messages with log levels of alert and emerg will also be reported.

Answer option B is incorrect. The ErrorLog directive is used to set the name and location of the file to which the server will log any errors it encounters. If the filepath does not begin with a slash sign (/), it is assumed to be relative to the ServerRoot. If the file-path begins with a pipe sign (|), then it is assumed to be a command that handles the error log.

Answer option A is incorrect. The CustomLog directive is used to log requests to the server. The format of the log is specified and the logging can be made conditional on request characteristics with the help of environment variables. Environment variables can be adjusted on a per-request basis with the help of the mod_setenvif or mod_rewrite module.

Contingency plans are often devised by governments or businesses who want to be prepared for anything that could happen. Contingency plans include specific strategies and actions to deal with specific variances to assumptions resulting in a particular problem, emergency, or state of affairs. They also include a monitoring process and "triggers" for initiating planned actions. They are required to help governments, businesses, or individuals to recover from serious incidents in the minimum time with minimum cost and disruption.

Answer option A is incorrect. Disaster recovery planning is a subset of a larger process known as business continuity planning and should include planning for resumption of applications, data, hardware, communications (such as networking), and other IT infrastructure. A business continuity plan (BCP) includes planning for non-IT related aspects such as key personnel, facilities, crisis communication, and reputation protection, and should refer to the disaster recovery plan (DRP) for IT-related infrastructure recovery/continuity.

Answer option D is incorrect. The Continuity Of Operation Plan (COOP) refers to the preparations and institutions maintained by the United States government, providing survival of federal government operations in the case of catastrophic events.
