Veeam Certified Engineer (VMCE) v12 — Question 89

Management asks a backup administrator to deploy the Veeam Agent on a number of Amazon EC2 instances running Windows and Linux operating systems. A Veeam Protection Group is also required by management. The Veeam Distribution Server does not have network access to these instances.

What protection group type should be used to select these objects?

Answer options

• A. Individual computers
• B. Microsoft Active Directory objects
• C. Computers listed in a CSV file
• D. Cloud machines

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as Cloud machines are specifically designed to include instances that may not be directly accessible over the network, such as those hosted on Amazon EC2. Options A, B, and C are not suitable because they rely on direct access to the machines or specific listing formats, which is not applicable in this scenario.
