Your company has an Azure subscription named Sub-Ops-Resources that contains the resources shown in the following table:
| Resource Name | Resource Type | Azure Region | Resource Group |
|---|---|---|---|
| RSV-North | Recovery Services Vault | North Europe | rg-sec-ne |
| BV-West | Backup Vault | West Europe | rg-sec-we |
| VM-Prod-01 | Virtual Machine | North Europe | rg-prod-ne |
| Disk-Data-02 | Managed Disk | West Europe | rg-prod-we |
Which configuration should you use to back up VM-Prod-01 and Disk-Data-02?
- Back up VM-Prod-01 to RSV-North, and back up Disk-Data-02 to BV-West.Answer
- BBack up VM-Prod-01 to BV-West, and back up Disk-Data-02 to RSV-North.
- CBack up VM-Prod-01 and Disk-Data-02 to RSV-North.
- DBack up VM-Prod-01 and Disk-Data-02 to BV-West.
Answer
Back up VM-Prod-01 to RSV-North, and back up Disk-Data-02 to BV-West.
The correct configuration is to back up VM-Prod-01 to RSV-North and Disk-Data-02 to BV-West. Azure Backup requires that Recovery Services Vaults used for backing up Virtual Machines reside in the same region as the target VMs (VM-Prod-01 and RSV-North are both in North Europe). Similarly, Azure Disk backup requires a Backup Vault located in the same region as the managed disk (Disk-Data-02 and BV-West are both in West Europe).

Key Concept
Azure Recovery Services Vaults support Virtual Machine and Azure Files backup within the same region, whereas Backup Vaults support Managed Disks and Blob storage backups within the same region.
