What should you do?

You administer a single server that contains a Microsoft SQL Server 2016 default instance on which several production databases have been deployed.

Answer: C

Explanation:

SQL Server supports multiple instances of SQL Server on a single server or processor, but only one instance can be the default instance. All others must be named instances. A computer can run multiple instances of SQL Server concurrently, and each instance runs independently of other instances.
