Veeam Certified Engineer (VMCE) 2020 — Question 26

Which Veeam Backup & Replication job type offers the shortest recovery time objective (RTO)?

Answer options

• A. Backup copy
• B. Backup to tape
• C. Replication
• D. File to tape

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Replication is the correct answer because it creates an up-to-date copy of the virtual machine, allowing for near-instant recovery. In contrast, backup copy and backup to tape jobs involve longer processes for restoring data, and file to tape is typically used for archiving rather than quick recovery.
