Question

Difficulty: MediumAzure Virtual Machine Backup Configuration

Your company has an Azure subscription containing a virtual machine named VM-AppProd located in the East US region. You need to implement a backup solution for VM-AppProd. You currently have the following vaults deployed in the subscription:

* RSV-East: A Recovery Services vault in the East US region
* RSV-West: A Recovery Services vault in the West US region
* BV-East: A Backup vault in the East US region

Which of these vaults can be used to configure the backup for VM-AppProd?

  1. RSV-East onlyAnswer
  2. B
    RSV-East and RSV-West only
  3. C
    RSV-East and BV-East only
  4. D
    RSV-East, RSV-West, and BV-East

Answer

Only RSV-East can be used to configure the backup for the virtual machine.
The correct answer is RSV-East only. Azure Virtual Machine backup is supported only in Recovery Services vaults, and the vault must be located in the same region as the virtual machine. Since VM-AppProd is in East US, only a Recovery Services vault in East US (RSV-East) can be used.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Identify the required vault type for Azure Virtual Machine backup.
Azure Virtual Machine backups are supported only by Recovery Services vaults. Backup vaults are used for other resources like Azure Disks, Blobs, or PostgreSQL databases.
This filters out BV-East from the available options.
2
Determine the regional requirements for the Recovery Services vault.
The Recovery Services vault must be in the same Azure region as the virtual machine being backed up (East US).
This filters out RSV-West because it is located in the West US region.
3
Select the matching vault that satisfies both criteria.
RSV-East is the only Recovery Services vault located in the East US region.
This determines the final correct option.

Key Concept

Azure Virtual Machine backup requires a Recovery Services vault in the same region as the target virtual machine.
