Question

Difficulty: MediumRecovery Services Vaults and Backup Vaults

Your company has an Azure subscription named `sub-global-infra` that contains the resources shown in the following table:

Resource NameResource TypeRegion
vm-linux-prodVirtual MachineFrance Central
disk-linux-osManaged DiskFrance Central
rsv-franceRecovery Services VaultFrance Central
bv-franceBackup VaultFrance Central
bv-germanyBackup VaultGermany West Central

You need to configure Azure Backup for `vm-linux-prod` and `disk-linux-os` using the available vaults.

Which configuration should you use?

  1. Back up vm-linux-prod to rsv-france, and back up disk-linux-os to bv-france.Answer
  2. B
    Back up vm-linux-prod to bv-france, and back up disk-linux-os to rsv-france.
  3. C
    Back up vm-linux-prod to rsv-france, and back up disk-linux-os to bv-germany.
  4. D
    Back up vm-linux-prod to rsv-france, and back up disk-linux-os to rsv-france.

Answer

Back up vm-linux-prod to rsv-france, and back up disk-linux-os to bv-france.
The correct configuration is to back up vm-linux-prod to rsv-france, and back up disk-linux-os to bv-france. This is because Azure VMs must be backed up to a Recovery Services Vault in the same region, and Azure Managed Disks must be backed up to a Backup Vault in the same region.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Determine the vault type and regional requirements for backing up the Azure Virtual Machine (vm-linux-prod).
Azure Virtual Machines require a Recovery Services Vault located in the same region (France Central). Therefore, vm-linux-prod must be backed up to rsv-france.
Azure VMs are supported by Recovery Services Vaults, and cross-region backup configuration for VMs is not supported.
2
Determine the vault type and regional requirements for backing up the Azure Managed Disk (disk-linux-os).
Azure Managed Disks require a Backup Vault located in the same region (France Central). Therefore, disk-linux-os must be backed up to bv-france.
Azure Disk Backup is supported by Backup Vaults, not Recovery Services Vaults, and requires the vault to be in the same region as the source disk.

Key Concept

Azure Backup supports different vault types and regional alignment depending on the resource type: Recovery Services Vaults for Azure VMs, and Backup Vaults for Azure Managed Disks, both requiring regional alignment.
