Veritas NetBackup 8.3 and NetBackup Appliances 3.3 Administrator — Question 7
An administrator needs to store secure tape copies of protected data to an offsite location.
How can the administrator automatically eject tape media daily and create detailed reports?
Answer options
- A. encrypt the tapes using software encryption and use a storage lifecycle policy to perform automatic ejects and create reports
- B. enable the encryption attribute on the vault policy to perform automated ejects and create reports
- C. use tape drives that support hardware encryption and use a vault policy to perform automated ejects and create reports
- D. use tape drives that support hardware encryption and use a storage lifecycle policy to perform automated ejects and create reports
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is A because using software encryption along with a storage lifecycle policy allows for both the automatic ejection of tapes and the generation of detailed reports. Options B and C do not incorporate the necessary combination of features to achieve both tasks effectively, while D, although it mentions hardware encryption, fails to utilize the appropriate policy for the required automation.
