Veeam Certified Engineer (VMCE) 2020 — Question 9

A backup administrator needs to restore two data drives to a VM where the operating system remains intact. The target machine must remain powered on. What recovery option is most appropriate to perform this operation?

Answer options

• A. Instant VM Recovery
• B. Instant disk recovery
• C. Restore entire VM
• D. Restore VM files

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, Instant disk recovery, because it allows for the restoration of specific data disks while the VM remains operational. The other options do not fit the scenario: A would recover the entire VM, C restores the whole virtual machine including the operating system, and D focuses on VM files rather than specific disk recovery.
