Veeam VMCE VMCE2021 Questions & Answers

• Question 41:

  A Windows VM running on Microsoft Hyper-V is protected using the file indexing option. The guest interaction proxy is offline. Which of the following Veeam servers will be used to deploy the runtime during the backup process?

  A. Backup and Replication server

  B. Indexing database server

  C. File proxy server

  D. Virtual lab server

  Correct Answer: A

  https://helpcenter.veeam.com/archive/backup/110/hyperv/guest_interaction_proxy.html According to the Veeam Software Help Center1, Veeam Backup and Replication deploys runtime components on a VM guest OS to perform file indexing.

  These components can be either non-persistent or persistent depending on whether you have enabled application- aware processing for the VM.

  If you have enabled application-aware processing for the VM, Veeam Backup and Replication uses a persistent agent component that is installed on the VM guest OS during backup job session and remains on the VM after that. In this case, if

  the guest interaction proxy is offline, Veeam Backup and Replication will use another available guest interaction proxy or fail over to the backup server.

  If you have not enabled application-aware processing for the VM, Veeam Backup and Replication uses a non-persistent runtime component that is deployed on the fly and removed after indexing is complete. In this case, if the guest interaction

  proxy is offline, Veeam Backup and Replication will use another available guest interaction proxy or fail over to the backup server.

• Question 42:

  In the war against ransomware, a company decided to implement tape backup for the first time. The tape library has already been added. Of the following, what must be done first?

  A. Create vaults.

  B. Create media pools.

  C. Create libraries.

  D. Create media sets.

  Correct Answer: B

• Question 43:

  Due to an unexpected power outage, Site A is completely down. The disaster recovery strategy was implemented (see diagram). What is the correct way to start replicated VMs on Site B, while ensuring you can failback after Site A comes back online?

  

  A. Execute "Permanent failover" from vCenter.

  B. Execute "Planned failover".

  C. Power on VMs manually through vCenter.

  D. Perform "Failover".

  Correct Answer: D

• Question 44:

  An administrator has decided to set up a VM backup job covering their Microsoft SOL servers. What feature must be enabled to ensure quiescence of the SQL databases during the backup?

  A. Enable Microsoft SQL server plug-in.

  B. Enable application-aware processing.

  C. Enable Microsoft Windows OS processing.

  D. Enable Microsoft SQL server agent on the VMs

  Correct Answer: B

  Explanation: According to the Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows User Guide1, you need to enable application-aware processing to ensure quiescence of the SQL databases during the backup. Application-aware processing allows Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows to create transactionally consistent backups of SQL Server VMs.

• Question 47:

  A daily backup job for seven Hyper-V VMs has been configured at the main site, keeping 14 days' worth of backup files. They want to get a copy of the VM backups to a repository at the disaster recovery site. They want to keep six months' worth of backup files at the disaster recovery site. They also need to be able to restore the VMs to any given day within two months and any given week within six months. How should a backup copy job be configured to meet these requirements?

  A. Use periodic copy (pruning) mode, keeping 180 days of retention.

  B. Use immediate copy (mirroring) mode, keeping 62 days of retention and 26 weekly GFS restore points.

  C. Use periodic copy (pruning) mode, keeping 62 days of retention and six monthly GFS restore points.

  D. Use immediate copy (mirroring) mode, keeping 180 days of retention.

  Correct Answer: B

  Explanation: According to the Veeam Backup and Replication user guide1, you can use a long-term retention policy (GFS) to keep backup files for longer periods of time. GFS stands for grandfather-father-son and refers to a backup rotation scheme that allows you to create weekly, monthly, quarterly and yearly restore points12. Therefore, if you want to be able to restore the VMs to any given day within two months and any given week within six months, you should use a GFS policy with 62 days of retention and 26 weekly GFS restore points. The simplest configuration would be an immediate copy (mirroring) mode with these settings (option B).

  B. Differential incremental backup

  C. Reverse incremental backup
