Veeam Certified Engineer (VMCE) v12 — Question 80

A physical Linux file server needs to be migrated to VMware ESXi. The server has several volumes: /dev/sda (60GB), /dev/sdb (1TB) and /dev/sdc (4TB). What is the quickest option to migrate the server?

Answer options

• A. Create an empty VM and perform bare metal recovery inside the VM.
• B. Perform Instant VM Recovery.
• C. Perform Instant Disk Recovery for each volume.
• D. Export all disks, create an empty VM and attach the disks.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer, B, is right because Instant VM Recovery allows for quick restoration of the physical server into a virtual environment without needing to create a new VM or recover volumes individually. The other options, while possible, are more time-consuming and involve additional steps that would delay the migration process.
