Zorluk: OrtaDesign Azure Backup Solutions

You are designing a backup solution for a critical production workload hosted on an Azure Virtual Machine. The virtual machine has the following configuration:

* Operating System: Windows Server 2025
* Disks: Multiple Premium SSD v2 managed disks
* Location: East US region

The backup solution must meet the following requirements:

* Backups must run daily.
* All backup data must be stored in a Recovery Services vault configured with Zone-Redundant Storage (ZRS).
* To meet a strict Recovery Time Objective (RTO) for operational recoveries, administrators must be able to perform instant file-level restores from local snapshots for any backup taken within the last 7 days.
* Backups must be retained in the vault for a minimum of 365 days.

You need to design the Azure Backup policy.

Which backup policy configuration should you recommend?

  1. An Enhanced backup policy with the instant restore retention set to 7 daysCevap
  2. B
    A Standard backup policy with the instant restore retention set to 7 days
  3. C
    An Enhanced backup policy with the instant restore retention set to 5 days
  4. D
    A Standard backup policy with the instant restore retention set to 5 days

Cevap

The correct configuration is an Enhanced backup policy with the instant restore retention set to 7 days, as it supports Premium SSD v2 managed disks and allows instant restore snapshots to be kept for up to 30 days.
An Enhanced backup policy is required because the virtual machine is configured with Premium SSD v2 managed disks, which are not supported by Standard backup policies. Additionally, Standard backup policies only support a maximum of 5 days of instant restore (snapshot) retention, whereas the requirement is 7 days. The Enhanced backup policy supports configuring the instant restore retention window for up to 30 days, satisfying the operational recovery requirements.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the virtual machine disk configuration.
Identify that the virtual machine uses Premium SSD v2 managed disks.
Premium SSD v2 and Ultra Disks require the use of the Enhanced backup policy tier in Azure Backup.
2
Evaluate the operational restore RTO requirements.
Identify the need to support instant file-level restores from local snapshots for up to 7 days.
The instant restore retention window must be configured to at least 7 days. Standard backup policies only support a maximum of 5 days, while Enhanced policies support up to 30 days.
3
Select the policy type and configure the snapshot retention parameters.
Combine the requirements to select an Enhanced backup policy with the instant restore retention set to 7 days.
This configuration satisfies both the Premium SSD v2 disk support and the 7-day instant recovery timeline.
