Exam CV0-003 topic 1 question 198 discussion

Has to be D. Only an Offsite server would help them to meet the following 3-2-1 rules - 3 Copies of Data – Maintain three copies of data—the original, and at least two copies. - 2 Different Media – Use two different media types for storage. This can help reduce any impact that may be attributable to one specific storage media type. It’s your decision as to which storage medium will contain the original data and which will contain any of the additional copies. - 1 Copy Offsite – Keep one copy offsite to prevent the possibility of data loss due to a site-specific failure.

D is the right answer. The 3-2-1 backup policy is a widely recommended strategy for data protection that helps ensure your data is safe from loss. Here’s what it involves: 3-2-1 Backup Policy Breakdown 1. 3 Copies of Your Data**: Maintain three total copies of your data. This includes the original data and two backups. Having multiple copies reduces the risk of losing everything if one fails. 2. 2 Different Storage Media**: Store the backups on at least two different types of storage media. This could include combinations like hard drives, solid-state drives, cloud storage, USB drives, or tape backups. Using different media types protects against media-specific failures. 3. 1 Offsite Location**: Keep at least one backup offsite. This means storing a copy of your data in a different physical location. Offsite storage protects against disasters like fire, flooding, or theft that could affect your primary site.

An off-site storage server ensures that there is a separate physical location where backups are stored, reducing the risk of data loss due to on-site disasters such as fires, floods, or theft. By configuring an off-site storage server for backups, the administrator ensures compliance with the 3-2-1 backup policy, providing a robust backup strategy that guards against various failure scenarios. The 3-2-1 backup policy is a widely recommended strategy for ensuring data resilience and recoverability. It involves: Three copies of data: This means having three separate copies of your data to guard against data loss. Two different media types: Storing the copies on two different types of storage media helps mitigate risks associated with a single type of failure. One copy off-site: Keeping at least one copy of the data off-site protects against site-wide disasters.

To comply with the 3-2-1 backup policy, the administrator should configure an off-site storage server for backups. The 3-2-1 backup policy requires three copies of the data, stored in two different formats, with one copy stored off-site. The current backup solution has only one copy of the data (on-site) and should be expanded to include an off-site copy. Weekly full backups and daily incremental backups, storage snapshots, and a second on-site storage server for backups do not necessarily satisfy the 3-2-1 backup policy, although they may be components of a backup solution.

D is definitely needed.. B is in play here incase you get to test day and see its a Pick Two question.. because the current method they are using doesnt have the 2nd onsite back up listed

Why is it A
