Veeam Certified Engineer (VMCE) v12 — Question 40

Veeam is being used to back up a Microsoft SQL VM with transaction logs being backed up every 30 minutes to a repository that is local to the Veeam Backup and Replication server. Business requirements dictate that the database backup and all logs also be stored on a secondary, standalone repository in the DR datacenter.

What should the Veeam engineer configure to meet the requirements?

Answer options

• A. Backup Copy Job in Periodic Copy mode
• B. SOBR with Copy mode enabled
• C. Backup Copy Job using the SQL Transaction Log Job as the source
• D. Backup Copy Job in Immediate mode

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because a Backup Copy Job in Immediate mode will immediately copy the backups and logs to the secondary repository, meeting the business requirement for prompt redundancy. The other options do not provide the necessary immediacy or do not correctly address the requirement of copying logs and backups to a secondary location.
