Veeam Certified Engineer (VMCE) 2021 — Question 103

A company needs several VMware VMs restored. The proxies are virtualized and reside on the ESXi host to which the VMs must be restored. Which transport mode will be used by default to restore these VMs?

Answer options

• A. Direct Storage Access
• B. Network mode
• C. Quick Migration
• D. Virtual appliance

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, Virtual appliance, because this transport mode is specifically designed for restoring VMs when the proxies are running on the same ESXi host as the VMs. The other options, such as Direct Storage Access and Network mode, are not applicable in this scenario since they do not utilize the virtual appliance method when restoring to the same host.
