Question 134

A Scale-out Backup Repository with one local extent has been configured as follows.

A daily VMware backup job retention is 31 days, keeping weekly GFS full backups for 14 weeks.

It is Jan. 10. A file from a backup that occurred the week of Jan. 1 must be recovered. Where is the data?

    Correct Answer: C

    When a backup is created, it is initially stored on the performance tier. According to the configuration, backups are copied to the capacity tier immediately upon creation, and they are moved out of the performance tier to the capacity tier after 14 days. Since it is Jan. 10 and the backup from the week of Jan. 1 is only 10 days old, the backup would still be present in the performance tier and it would also have been copied to the capacity tier. Therefore, the data is in both the performance tier and the capacity tier.
