A company backs up data from its data center using a tape gateway on AWS Storage Gateway. The SysOps Administrator needs to reboot the virtual machine running Storage Gateway. What process will protect data integrity?
A.
Stop Storage Gateway and reboot the virtual machine, then restart Storage Gateway.
B.
Reboot the virtual machine, then restart Storage Gateway.
C.
Reboot the virtual machine.
D.
Shut down the virtual machine and stop Storage Gateway, then turn on the virtual machine.
It ensures that Storage Gateway is properly stopped before the reboot, preventing any data loss or corruption, and then restarted after the reboot process is completed.
You might need to shutdown or reboot your VM for maintenance, such as when applying a patch to your hypervisor. Before you shutdown the VM, you must first stop the gateway. For file gateway, you just shutdown your VM. Although this section focuses on starting and stopping your gateway using the AWS Storage Gateway Management Console, you can also and stop your gateway by using your VM local console or AWS Storage Gateway API. When you power on your VM, remember to restart your gateway.
So answer A is correct (For tape gateway). The link you provided explains it all:
In case of tape or volume gateway, you need to stop the gateway before rebooting and the start it when the VM is up and running.
In case of a file gateway, a simple VM reboot is enough.
