Veeam VMCA2022 Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

Changing the backup window from 12 hours to 14 hours means that the backup jobs will have more time to complete, and therefore less concurrency will be required. This will reduce the load on the proxies, which are the data movers that perform backup, replication, and restore tasks1. The proxies will need fewer resources, such as CPU and memory, to handle the same amount of data.

The other options are incorrect because:

• A) Proxies will not require more resources, as explained above.
• B) Mount servers will not require fewer resources, as they are not affected by the backup window. Mount servers are used to mount backup files and restore data from them2. Their resource consumption depends on the restore frequency and performance, not the backup window.
• D) Repositories will not require more storage space, as the backup window does not affect the backup size. Repositories are storage locations where the backup files are stored3. Their storage space consumption depends on the amount of data to be backed up, the backup method, the retention policy, and the compression and deduplication settings, not the backup window.

You can find more information about the backup window and the Veeam components in the following resources:

• Mount Server
• Backup Repository

The best option to still satisfy the requirement for offsite, immutable or air gapped backups if the cloud provider selected for archive storage does not support immutability is to set up Scale-out Backup Repository capacity tier to a different cloud provider than the archive tier. Scale-out Backup Repository is a logical entity that groups several backup repositories into a single pool of storage, and allows to move backup files between performance and capacity tiers1. The capacity tier can be configured to use Amazon S3 or Microsoft Azure Blob Storage, which support Object Lock feature for immutability2. By using a different cloud provider for the capacity tier than the archive tier, the backup data can be stored in two separate locations, with one copy being immutable or air gapped. The other options are either not feasible (option A, as the scenario does not mention another site), not secure (option C, as the backup data can still be accessed or modified when the repository is online), or not offsite (option D, as the scenario requires a copy of backup data in a public cloud). References: Scale-out Backup Repository, Object Storage Immutability.

•Veeam CDP is a technology that helps you protect mission-critical VMware virtual machines when data loss for seconds or minutes is unacceptable12.

•Veeam CDP leverages vSphere APIs for I/O filtering (VAIO) to constantly replicate I/O operations performed on VMs without creating snapshots12.

•Veeam CDP allows you to configure the RPO per second and achieve near-zero RPO, which means almost no data loss12.

•Veeam CDP also provides minimum recovery time objective (RTO) in case of a disaster, as CDP replicas are in a ready-to-start state1.

Veeam image-based replication is not the best option, as it relies on snapshots and has a higher RPO than CDP3. Custom PowerShell scripting is not a reliable or scalable solution, as it requires manual coding and maintenance. Veeam Backup Copy with immediate mode is not suitable for replication, as it is designed for copying backup files, not VM replicas4.
