Veeam Certified Engineer (VMCE) v9 — Question 65

A scale-out backup repository is configured with data locality policy. How is an extent selected during an active full backup? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Always the same extent as the previous full backup
• B. An extent determined based on load control settings and free space
• C. A different extent from the previous chain to avoid single point of failure, if possible on free space
• D. It tries the same location as the previous full if using a deduplication appliance

Correct answer: A, B

Explanation

The correct answer, A, is valid because the policy ensures consistency by reusing the same extent. Option B is also correct as it allows for dynamic selection based on system performance and available storage. Options C and D are not correct as they do not align with the data locality policy's intent to maintain consistency and efficiency.
