Veeam Certified Engineer (VMCE) v9 — Question 41

When is the full backup created in a backup copy job for each GFS retention point?

Answer options

• A. Never. Backup copy jobs do not use full backups.
• B. After the simple retention policy is met and the .vbk has been updated to the scheduled date
• C. On the day that the full backupis scheduled
• D. Each GFS point is made when an active full is run on the backup.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because full backups are created on the designated schedule as part of the GFS retention policy. Option A is incorrect as backup copy jobs do indeed utilize full backups in their processes, while option B refers to simple retention rather than GFS points, and option D misrepresents the timing of GFS point creation.
