Microsoft Azure Administrator (legacy) — Question 61

You have an Azure subscription that contains the following resources:
✑ 100 Azure virtual machines
✑ 20 Azure SQL databases
✑ 50 Azure file shares
You need to create a daily backup of all the resources by using Azure Backup.
What is the minimum number of backup policies that you must create?

Answer options

• A. 1
• B. 2
• C. 3
• D. 150
• E. 170

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is 3, as each type of resource requires a distinct backup policy: one for Azure virtual machines, one for Azure SQL databases, and one for Azure file shares. The other options are incorrect because they either underestimate or overestimate the number of policies needed for the various resource types.
