[All VMCE v12 Questions]

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 the six months. How should a backup copy job be configured to meet these requirements?

  • A. Use periodic copy (pruning) mode, keeping 62 days of retention and six monthly GFS restore points.
  • B. Use immediate copy (mirroring) mode, keeping 180 days of retention.
  • C. Use periodic copy (pruning) mode, keeping 180 days of retention.
  • D. Use immediate copy (mirroring) mode, keeping 62 days of retention and 26 weekly GFS restore points.

Selected Answer: A
The correct answer is A. Use periodic copy (pruning) mode, keeping 62 days of retention and six monthly GFS restore points. B. Immediate Copy (Mirroring) Mode → Does not support GFS retention, so it cannot guarantee 6-month retention. C. Periodic Copy with 180 days retention → Lacks GFS points, making it inefficient for long-term storage (would keep every daily backup for 6 months, consuming excessive space). D. Immediate Copy with GFS → Immediate mode doesn’t support GFS, and weekly points are unnecessary for the given requirements.

Selected Answer: D
Periodic Copy jobs became legacy in V12. https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/backup_copy_modes.html?ver=120 NOTE Periodic backup copy jobs created in Veeam Backup & Replication 11 or earlier became legacy periodic backup copy jobs in Veeam Backup & Replication 12. Legacy periodic backup copy jobs are fully operational, but you can only edit them and cannot create new ones. You can upgrade backup files of a legacy periodic backup copy job to the per-machine backup files using mapping. For more information, see Upgrading Backup Chain Formats.
