Which of the following best describes VMware Tools quiescence?
VMware Tools quiescence involves quiescing the virtual machine to reach a consistent state for backups without performing any application-specific actions. This means that while the VM is quiesced, data consistency is ensured only at the VM level and not at the application level. Applications like databases or email servers that require specific handling for transactional consistency would need additional steps beyond just VMware Tools quiescence.
This is B.
I vote B. VMWare quiescence is not sufficient for highly transactional applications like Exchange and SQL. "If you use VMware Tools quiescence, Veeam Backup & Replication will quiesce the VM but will not perform application-specific actions required for proper backup and restore of VMs running highly transactional applications" Source: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/quiescence_choice.html?ver=95u4
this is D .VMware Tools Quiescence To create transactionally consistent backups and replicas for VMs that do not support Microsoft VSS (for example, Linux VMs), you must enable VMware Tools quiescence for the job
https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/quiescence_choice.html?ver=95u4 Should vote B as answer!
