Dell EMC Associate – Information Storage and Management v4 — Question 75

A company has virtualized their data center and wants to deploy a recovery-in-place backup approach. What is the advantage of this type of approach?

Answer options

• A. Acquires backup services through a self-service portal
• B. Eliminates the backup impact on the application servers
• C. Reduces the recovery point objective to restore the data to any previous point-in-time using backed up VMs
• D. Eliminates the need to transfer the image from the backup device to the primary storage before it is restarted

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because recovery-in-place allows for immediate restoration without the need to transfer data, thus speeding up the recovery process. Options A and B do not directly relate to the benefits of recovery-in-place, while option C focuses on recovery point objectives, which is not the primary advantage of this approach.
