Question 42

Which of the following scenarios properly applies the 3-2-1 rule to backup jobs?

    Correct Answer: B

    The 3-2-1 rule for backups states that you should have at least three copies of your data, stored on two different types of media, with one copy off-site. Option B involves using a backup job to back up to a local repository and then performing a backup copy job to a repository in another location. This setup ensures two copies of the data in different locations. To fully comply with the 3-2-1 rule, an additional copy on different media (e.g., tape or cloud storage) would be required, but given the options provided, Option B comes closest to adhering to the rule.

ventasOption: B

B is correct, because in A you are using move mode, and this is not a third copy (3-2-1), you are just splitting the backup chain from the SOBR

pportoOption: B

A would be correct if the SOBR was configured in copy mode, since it is not, the data is being moved from one media to another media. B is correct and compliant with 3-2-1 rule (3 copies of the same data in 2 locations which one of the is off-site)
