CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-002) — Question 126

Joe, a customer, wants to implement backup of his replicated VMs so production performance is not affected at the primary site.
Which of the following backup methods would be the MOST appropriate?

Answer options

• A. Snapshot-based backup at the secondary site
• B. Mirroring to a third site from the primary site
• C. Agent-based backup at the primary site
• D. Agent-based backup at the secondary site

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because an agent-based backup at the primary site allows for backups to occur without affecting the performance of the replicated VMs. Option A would involve the secondary site, which may not guarantee no impact on the primary site. Option B could lead to additional load on the primary site, affecting performance, while option D would not address the concern of the primary site's performance directly.
