Dell EMC Associate – Information Storage and Management v4 — Question 106
A backup administrator has defined a backup policy. The policy requires full backups to be performed at 10 PM every Sunday and incremental backups performed at 10 PM the remaining days. If files were accidentally deleted Wednesday morning, how many backup copies are required to restore the files?
Answer options
- A. 2
- B. 3
- C. 4
- D. 5
Correct answer: B
Explanation
To restore the files deleted on Wednesday morning, the administrator would need the last full backup from Sunday and the two incremental backups from Monday and Tuesday, totaling three backup copies. The other options are incorrect as they do not account for the necessary incremental backups needed for recovery.
