VMware vSphere 6.5 Foundations (VCP6.5-DCV) — Question 87

An administrator configures vSphere Replication for a virtual machine and enables multiple point in time (PIT) instances under the recovery settings in the
Configure Replication wizard.
Which two statements are correct for vSphere Replication with multiple point in time instances enabled? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. vSphere Replication retains a number of snapshot instances of the virtual machine on the target site based on the retention policy that you specify.
• B. vSphere Replication uses the virtual machine's snapshot instances to define the target site Point in Time instance based on the retention policy that you specify.
• C. vSphere Replication does not support virtual machines with snapshots.
• D. vSphere Replication supports virtual machines with snapshots.

Correct answer: A, C

Explanation

Option A is correct because vSphere Replication indeed retains snapshot instances based on the specified retention policy. Option C is also correct as vSphere Replication does not support VMs with snapshots, which means options B and D are incorrect since they contradict this limitation.
