Actual exam question from Veeam's VMCE v12

Question #: 57
Topic #: 1

Veeam Backup & Replication is currently configured to keep backups for 14 days on a NAS repository. An engineer needs to enable GFS with 12 monthly and 5 yearly full backups to extend the retention for archival purposes but does not have enough space on the repository to store them.
After adding the repository to Scale-Out-Backup Repository (SOBR) as Performance Tier, which option should the engineer choose to solve this issue?

A. Add an Object Storage as Capacity tier and set the policy to copy backups to object storage as soon as they are created
B. Add another NAS repository as Capacity tier and set the policy to move backups older than 14 days
C. Add an Object Storage as Archive tier and set the policy to move all GFS backups
D. Add an Object Storage as Capacity tier and set the policy to move backups older than 14 days

There is a difference in move and copy. Copy indeed copies all restorepoints in the GFS scope directly. Move will only perform the move when the backup chain is inactive, age out the operational restore window.

Selected Answer: D

D - you can’t specify to offload GFS files, the two options are “immediate” (not relevant in this scenario) or offload outside of your operational restore window.

Selected Answer: C

For archive extents you must use the same object storage provider, that you use for the tier (either the performance tier, or the capacity tier) from which data moves to the archive tier.
