Veeam Certified Engineer (VMCE) v12 — Question 54
In the war against ransomware, a company decided to implement tape backup. The infrastructure contains VMware VMs and physical Windows servers. What is the most efficient approach to getting all servers onto tape?
Answer options
- A. Create file to tape jobs and write directly to tape.
- B. Create backup jobs, then create file to tape jobs.
- C. Create backup to tape jobs and write directly to tape.
- D. Create backup jobs, then create backup to tape jobs.
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is D because creating backup jobs first ensures that the data is securely backed up before transferring it to tape. Options A and C skip the initial backup phase, which could risk data loss. Option B is less efficient as it introduces an unnecessary step of creating file to tape jobs after backup jobs.
