Veeam Certified Engineer (VMCE) v12 — Question 68

An engineer has used a Linux Hardened Repository as the backup repository. The immutability period is set to 60 days.
The backup settings are:

Retention Policy: 14 days -

GFS Weekly full backup: 1 week -
GFS Monthly full backup: 6 months
If a full backup is created on 27th May 2023 with a monthly GFS flag, when will this restore point be automatically deleted?

Answer options

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, November 28, 2023, because the GFS Monthly full backup is retained for 6 months, starting from the backup date of May 27, 2023. The other options are incorrect as they either fall within the retention period or do not account for the full 6-month retention of the monthly backup.
