Backup jobs are configured to local repositories. Backups must be sent from Site B to the repository on Site A. The connection between the two sites does not allow a direct backup to complete within the backup window. Which type of job and Veeam components should be used to provide the necessary protection?
To transfer backups from Site B to Site A efficiently, especially when the direct connection cannot complete within the backup window, a backup copy job is ideal. A backup copy job allows for asynchronous replication of backup data, ensuring data protection and restore options are available at Site A. The correct sequence of components starts with the repository at Site B (component 6), which sends data to the WAN accelerator at Site B (component 4). The data then travels over the WAN and is received by the WAN accelerator at Site A (component 3), and finally lands in the repository at Site A (component 2). Proxy servers are not required in the backup copy job process. This configuration leverages WAN accelerators to optimize data transfer across the WAN, ensuring backups are completed within the allocated window.
A. Proxies are not involved during copy jobs
Needs to go through both proxy because it says that direct connection is NOT allowed
Correct "A"
A should be correct, according to Veeam you need to start at the repository, hit the site B WAN Accelerator, then hit the WAN Accelerator on the Site A, side then the repository. Backup copy jobs run repository to repository without the use of proxies. https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/wan_hiw.html?ver=120
Correct "A" is not necessary proxy.
