What is the purpose of a Cache Repository when adding the file share?

Answer options

• A. To walk the file shares and move data to the backup repository
• B. To control how fast the backup proxy can read data from the source file share
• C. To make sure backup retention is being managed correctly
• D. To store temporary metadata and track all objects that have changed

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The Cache Repository's primary role is to store temporary metadata and track changes in all objects, making option D the correct choice. Option A is incorrect because it describes a function not related to caching. Option B focuses on backup proxy speed, which is not the Cache Repository's purpose. Option C pertains to backup retention management, which is outside the scope of the Cache Repository's functions.
