Planning and Administering Microsoft Azure for SAP Workloads — Question 73

You have an Azure subscription that contains a Recovery Services vault named RSV1 and a virtual machine named VM1. VM1 runs SUSE Enterprise Linux (SLES) and hosts an SAP HANA instance.

You need to configure a HANA Backint-based backup of the HANA databases.

You register VM1 with RSV1.

What should you do next?

Answer options

• A. On VM1, stop the HANA instance.
• B. From RSV1, select the items to back up.
• C. On VM1, run the preregistration script.
• D. On VM1, install the Azure Backup Plugin for HANA.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because executing the preregistration script on VM1 is essential to prepare the HANA instance for integration with the Azure Backup service. Option A is incorrect as stopping the HANA instance is not required at this stage. Option B is wrong because selecting items to back up occurs after the proper integration is established. Option D is also incorrect since installing the Azure Backup Plugin is not the immediate next step after registration.
