Question 131

A daily backup job for seven VMware VMs has been configured at the main site, keeping 14 days’ worth of backup files. They want to get a copy of the VM backups to a repository at the disaster recovery site. They want to keep six months’ worth of backup files at the disaster recovery site. They need to be able to restore the VMs to any given day within two months at the disaster recovery and any given week within six months, minimizing the storage used at the disaster recovery. How should a backup copy job be configured to meet these requirements?

    Correct Answer: C

    To meet the requirements of restoring VMs to any given day within two months and any given week within six months, while minimizing storage usage at the disaster recovery site, it is best to use periodic copy (pruning) mode with 62 days of retention for daily restore points and 26 weekly GFS restore points for weekly restores. This configuration achieves the necessary granularity for daily restores within two months and weekly restores within six months, while also being efficient in terms of storage usage.
