Veeam Certified Engineer (VMCE) 2021 — Question 110

A file on a Linux VM hosted on Hyper-V is corrupted and must be restored. For some reason, the Veeam mount cannot connect to the VM through the network. Which of the following restore methods provides the best possible RTO?

Answer options

• A. Run Veeam file restore wizard and let it restore through PowerShell Direct.
• B. It is impossible to restore the file on the VM if the mount server cannot reach it through the network.
• C. Start a virtual lab and boot the Linux VM image in an application group, then copy the file directly from the image to the Linux VM.
• D. Run Veeam file store wizard and use “copy” to download the file locally in a shared folder.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Option D is the correct answer because downloading the file directly to a shared folder allows for a quick recovery without needing network access to the VM. Option A relies on PowerShell Direct, which may not be as straightforward. Option B is incorrect because there are alternative methods to restore files even if network access is not available. Option C, while possible, could involve more steps, leading to a longer recovery time compared to option D.
