Selected Answer: C

Based on the configuration and retention settings provided, the correct answer is: C The performance tier will contain the most recent 15 to 22 days of restore points. The capacity tier will contain the oldest 14 days of restore points. Since the backup job has a retention of 31 days, the performance tier will store the most recent 15 to 22 days of restore points, while the capacity tier will contain the oldest 14 days of restore points. This is because the backup files older than 14 days are moved to the object storage as per the capacity tier settings. Therefore, only the recent restore points are stored in the performance tier, while the older restore points are offloaded to the capacity tier.
