VEEAM Exam VMCE_v12 Topic 8 Question 15 Discussion

Actual exam question for VEEAM's VMCE_v12 exam
Question #: 15
Topic #: 8
[All VMCE_v12 Questions]

A backup administrator is called in to review a new Veeam deployment created by a coworker. The backup administrator takes the following notes:

* 12 backup jobs

* 1 SOBR configured with AWS S3 Performance Tier

* 1 Repository configured on Hardened Immutable Repository

The administrator also notes that six jobs are configured to use the SOBR and six jobs are configured to use the Hardened Immutable Repository.

What should the backup administrator report to the other coworker regarding the 3-2-1 backup strategy?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

The 3-2-1 backup strategy is a best practice that suggests having three total copies of your data, two of which are local but on different devices or media, and one copy offsite. In the described scenario, although there is an offsite component (SOBR with AWS S3 Performance Tier), and a local hardened immutable repository, there is no indication of a second local copy on a different device or media. This means that there is only one local copy of the backup data and one offsite copy. Therefore, the setup does not meet the 3-2-1 best practices requirement, which would involve having at least one more local copy on different media or device.

Haha, this sounds like a tricky one! I bet the backup administrator is going to have to do some serious troubleshooting to figure out if this setup really meets the 3-2-1 requirements. I hope they have a good sense of humor.

Hmm, the 3-2-1 strategy is all about having three copies of the data, two of which are on different media, and one offsite. This setup seems to have two copies, but I'm not sure if the SOBR with AWS S3 counts as offsite.

I agree, having only one copy of the backup data doesn't meet the 3-2-1 best practices.

I think we need to add the Hardened Immutable Repository to the capacity tier.

I'm not sure about this one. The Hardened Immutable Repository sounds like it might be part of the 3-2-1 strategy, but I'm not sure if it's enough on its own.

We should add another copy of the data to meet the 3-2-1 best practices.

The Hardened Immutable Repository is a good start, but we need more copies of the data.
