   A backup script must archive all files in /data that are older than 90 days, but it must preserve the directory structure so that files can be restored to their original paths. The script currently uses find /data -type f -mtime +90 -exec mv {} /archive/ \;. What is the main problem with this script?

   • AIt does not preserve the directory structure because all files are moved to a flat /archive directory.
   • BIt does not delete the original files after archiving.
   • CIt uses -mtime +90, which selects files modified in the last 90 days instead of older than 90 days.
   • DIt does not use the -r flag to recursively find files.
