VMware Cloud Director Specialist (2020) — Question 49

Which two statements are true regarding VMware NSX Manager backup configuration in VMware SDDC Manager? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. The backup server configuration can be edited to change the backup location, but previous backups must be manually copied from the old location to the new location.
• B. Only NSX Manager VMs are backed up.
• C. A separate external backup server must be registered for each NSX Manager instance.
• D. The file transfer protocol used for NSX backups is insecure, so the administrator must create a secure network tunnel for backup traffic.
• E. Only a user with the ADMIN role can configure the NSX backup server details in SDDC Manager.

Correct answer: A, E

Explanation

Option A is correct because it accurately reflects that while the backup server's configuration can be changed, moving previous backups needs to be done manually. Option E is also correct as only users with the ADMIN role have the permissions necessary to configure NSX backup server settings. Options B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately describe the backup configuration requirements or processes.
