VMCE2020 Exam - Question 47


A company needs to maintain and verify backups at a secondary site to meet the following requirements: RTO of two hours, RPO of 12 hours, four weeks retention. Which of the following backup copy job configurations meets these requirements?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: AB

To meet the requirements of a Recovery Time Objective (RTO) of two hours, a Recovery Point Objective (RPO) of 12 hours, and a retention period of four weeks, the backup job needs to be scheduled with a 12-hour interval, making a backup twice a day. Over four weeks (28 days), this results in 56 backup restore points being needed (2 backups per day x 28 days = 56 restore points). Therefore, the correct configuration is a periodic backup copy job, scheduled for a 12-hour interval, with 56 restore points to retain.

1 backup/12h - 56 points => 2 points per day => 28 days

B is the correct answer, based on RPO of 12 hours, they have 2 restore point per day, over 7 days of the week and 4 weeks retention --- 2x7x4=56 RPO

Correct one is B --> You need a 12-hour RPO with 4-week retention (2 copies per day with 28-day retention = 56 restore points). RTO is not specified in any response, therefore the 2 hours of RTO in the question must be discarded.
