You are designing a backup solution for an Azure Virtual Machine that hosts a critical database. The virtual machine has the following characteristics:
* Uses Standard Premium SSD managed disks.
* Requires backups to be retained in a vault for days.
* Requires the ability to perform instant recoveries (near-zero Recovery Time Objective (RTO)) using local snapshots for any recovery point from the last days.
* The backup data must be resilient against a zone outage in the primary region.
Which backup configuration should you recommend?
- An Enhanced backup policy with instant restore retention set to days, and a Recovery Services vault configured with Zone-Redundant Storage (ZRS).Cevap
- BA Standard backup policy with instant restore retention set to days, and a Recovery Services vault configured with Zone-Redundant Storage (ZRS).
- CA Standard backup policy with instant restore retention set to days, and a Recovery Services vault configured with Zone-Redundant Storage (ZRS).
- DAn Enhanced backup policy with instant restore retention set to days, and a Recovery Services vault configured with Locally Redundant Storage (LRS).
Cevap
An Enhanced backup policy with instant restore retention set to days, and a Recovery Services vault configured with Zone-Redundant Storage (ZRS).
The correct configuration uses an Enhanced backup policy configured with days of instant restore retention and a Recovery Services vault set to Zone-Redundant Storage (ZRS). The Enhanced policy is required because the Standard policy restricts the instant restore retention range to between and days, which would fail the requirement to support instant recoveries within days. Furthermore, ZRS is required to ensure the backups remain available in the event of an availability zone outage within the primary region.
