Gold tier virtual machines have a recovery point objective of one hour for image backup. Which transport mode could you use during the redesign? (Choose 2)
Answer : A, E
The transport modes that could be used during the redesign for gold tier virtual machines with a one-hour RPO are Virtual Appliance (HotAdd) and Backup from Storage Snapshots. A transport mode is a method of retrieving VM data from the source storage during backup or replication. Virtual Appliance (HotAdd) is a transport mode that allows a proxy server running on a VM to attach disks of another VM to itself via hot-add SCSI commands and read data directly from these disks. Backup from Storage Snapshots is a transport mode that allows a proxy server to retrieve data from storage snapshots created by supported storage systems without affecting the production VMs or hosts. Both transport modes can improve backup performance, reduce backup window, and minimize impact on the production environment.
What information related to the virtual infrastructure is missing and must be collected during the discovery phase) (Choose 2)
Answer : A, D
The number of vSphere clusters and the total of virtual machines are important information related to the virtual infrastructure that are missing and must be collected during the discovery phase. These information can help you estimate the backup performance, scalability, and resource requirements for the Veeam backup infrastructure. For example, you can use the number of vSphere clusters to determine how many Veeam backup servers and proxies you need to deploy and how to distribute the backup load among them. You can also use the total of virtual machines to calculate the total amount of data to be backed up, the storage space required, and the network bandwidth needed.
While examining the requirements for offsite copies and archives, you notice that it might be assumed that the offsite copies should only go to a cloud provider that supports immutability. Which of the stated requirements needs additional information to help clarity the customer expectation?
Answer : C
To design a solution that meets the offsite copies and archives requirements for Veeam University Hospital, you need to clarify some of the assumptions and expectations of the customer. This will help you to avoid any misunderstandings or conflicts that may arise during the implementation or operation of the solution.
According to the Veeam Backup & Replication Best Practice Guide, offsite copies and archives are two different concepts that serve different purposes. Offsite copies are backups that are stored in a different location than the primary backup storage, and are used for disaster recovery purposes. Archives are backups that are stored for a longer retention period than the regular backups, and are used for compliance or historical purposes.
Based on these definitions, the requirement that needs additional information to help clarify the customer expectation is C. Backups must take advantage of public cloud storage for long term archival purposes.
Consider the requirements regarding immutable or air gapped and different types of workloads. Which types of jobs do not support using immutability from S3 Object Lock or Hardened Repository and will need a different solution?
Answer : B
* Backup copy jobs with GFS enabled. This type of job does not support using immutability from S3 Object Lock because it uses synthetic full backups, which require modifying existing backup files. Synthetic full backups are not compatible with immutability settings, as they violate the principle of not changing the backup files.
What information related to the virtual infrastructure is missing and must be collected during the discovery phase? (Choose 2)
Answer : A, D
To design a solution that meets the virtual infrastructure requirements for Veeam University Hospital, you need to collect some information during the discovery phase. This information will help you to understand the configuration and performance of the VMware clusters, the size and type of the data, and the backup and recovery objectives.
According to the Veeam Backup & Replication Best Practice Guide, some of the information related to the virtual infrastructure that is missing and must be collected during the discovery phase are:
* Local area network speed. This information will help you to determine the network bandwidth and throughput that are available for backup and replication traffic, as well as the impact of backup and replication activities on the network performance and latency.
* Size of the source data set. This information will help you to estimate the backup storage requirements, as well as the backup compression and deduplication ratios, based on the size and type of the data.
Therefore, the correct answer is A and D.
Based on the customer Windows and Linux file server backup requirements, which component will help them meet their stated objectives?
Answer : D
Based on the customer Windows and Linux file server backup requirements, the best component to help them meet their stated objectives is Backup Enterprise Manager with indexing enabled on virtual machine and Agent backups with RBAC policies. This is because:
* Backup Enterprise Manager allows the customer to manage and monitor backup jobs across multiple backup servers from a single web-based interface1.
* Indexing enables the customer to perform file-level recovery from the backups of Windows and Linux servers, as well as search for files across all backups2.
* RBAC policies allow the customer to delegate permissions to different users and groups for performing file-level recovery, based on their roles and restore scopes3.
Immutability of the offsite backups is a constraint on this project. Which of the following is
presumed to be an additional condition of your offsite backup?
