VMCE 2021 Exam - Question 6


A daily backup job for seven Hyper-V 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 also need to be able to restore the VMs to any given day within two months and any given week within six months. How should a backup copy job be configured to meet these requirements?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: B

The requirements are to keep six months’ worth of backup files at the disaster recovery site and have the ability to restore the VMs to any given day within two months and any given week within six months. Immediate copy (mirroring) mode with 62 days of retention meets the requirement of restoring to any given day within two months. Keeping 26 weekly GFS (Grandfather-Father-Son) restore points ensures the restoration capability for any given week within six months, as 26 weeks correspond to approximately six months.
