VMCE v12 Exam - Question 1


A Scale-out Backup Repository with one local extent has been configured as follows.

A daily VMware backup job retention is 31 days, keeping weekly GFS full backups for 14 weeks.

It is Mar, 20. A file from a backup that occurred the week of Jan, 1 must be recovered. Where is the data?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: C,D

The backup from the week of January 1 must be recovered and today is March 20, which means the backup is older than 21 days but less than 60 days. Since the 'Move backups to object storage as they age out of the operational restore window' option is enabled and set to 21 days in the Capacity Tier, the backup will have already been moved to the capacity tier. The Archive Tier is not enabled, so the data cannot be there. Therefore, the data will be in the capacity tier.

It's A (performance tier) obviously. Archive Tier is not even enabled. It's not in the capacity either because it's not older than 21 day
