Question 20

In the war against ransomware, a company decided to implement tape backup. The infrastructure contains VMware VMs and physical Windows servers. What is the most efficient approach to getting all servers onto tape?

    Correct Answer: D

    The most efficient approach to getting both VMware VMs and physical Windows servers onto tape is to first create backup jobs and store these backups on a disk-based repository. Once the backups are securely stored, create backup to tape jobs to transfer the data from the disk repository to tape. This method ensures that all data is captured, including system states and application data, and optimizes the process by leveraging the established disk-based backups before writing to tape.

Answer: D Explanation: The most efficient approach to getting all servers onto tape, considering there are both VMware VMs and physical Windows servers in the infrastructure, is to first create backup jobs that target both the VMs and the physical servers. After these backups are stored on a disk-based repository, you can then create backup to tape jobs. This method leverages Veeam's ability to handle both types of environments and ensures that all data is efficiently backed up to tape for offsite storage and ransomware protection.

backing up to tape would be most efficient from the existing backup files.
