HPE Converged Storage Solutions — Question 42

Your customer currently uses a VMware-based Veeam backup proxy. They would like to perform a direct backup from their FC-connected Alletra 9000 array.

What could be the reason for the backup falling back to network mode?

Answer options

• A. Direct backup from an HPE Alletra 9000 array requires an Advanced Backup LTU
• B. Direct backup from a FC-connected array is only available on physical server-based backup proxy
• C. VM-based backup proxy has not enough RAM and more must be assigned in VM properties
• D. HPE Alletra 9000 storage array WS API connection timeout value must be increased

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because direct backup from a Fibre Channel-connected array is only possible with a physical server-based backup proxy, not a VM-based one. Option A is incorrect as an Advanced Backup LTU is not a requirement for this specific scenario. Option C is not relevant since the RAM allocation does not affect the type of backup proxy being used, and option D deals with a connectivity issue rather than the type of backup proxy.
