Veeam is being used to back up a Microsoft SQL VM with transaction logs being backed up every 30 minutes to a repository that is local to the Veeam Backup and Replication server. Business requirements dictate that the database backup and all logs also be stored on a secondary, standalone repository in the DR datacenter.
What should the Veeam engineer configure to meet the requirements?
Backup Copy Job in Periodic Copy mode would be the correct configuration. This option allows the Veeam engineer to create a secondary copy of the backup and all transaction logs in the DR datacenter at specific intervals, ensuring compliance with the business requirements for redundancy and disaster recovery. You cannot create a copy job for a transaction log job directly as it is a child job of the main backup job, so the Backup Copy Job in Immediate mode (Option D) or using the SQL Transaction Log Job as the source (Option C) would not meet the requirements effectively.
You can not create a copy job for a transaction job since its a child job of the main backup job
