VMCE v12 Exam - Question 8


A power outage on Site A is expected during the night. The disaster recovery strategy has been implemented (see diagram). What is the correct way to start replicated VMs on Site B to minimize data loss?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: B

To minimize data loss in the event of a planned power outage at Site A, the correct procedure is to execute a 'Planned Failover.' This method involves synchronizing the data between the primary site (Site A) and the secondary site (Site B) before shutting down the primary site. By doing this, you ensure that the most recent data is replicated to Site B, reducing the risk of data loss. This process is managed through the disaster recovery software, such as Veeam Backup & Replication, ensuring that the transition is seamless and that the virtual machines (VMs) start correctly at Site B.

For those who are voting C: Since Site A will be powered down (Planned Power Outage), vCenter will not be able to power on VMs at Site B. Therefor, the correct answer is B.

All site A is down you cant lunch Execute "Planned failover" : For me is " Power on VMs manually through vCenter."
