A senior infrastructure engineer is defining the emergency recovery protocol for an enterprise network orchestrator host. The host's backup policy mandates a full system backup executed every Sunday at 01:00, daily incremental backups created Monday through Friday at 22:00, and hourly configuration state exports taken at the top of every hour. An unrecoverable storage array crash corrupts the primary orchestrator host on Thursday at 14:15. Which of the following backup restoration sequences must be executed to restore the orchestrator to its most recent operational state prior to the failure while preserving data integrity?
- Restore the Sunday full backup, sequentially restore the Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday incremental backups, and then apply all hourly state exports captured on Thursday up to 14:00.Cevap
- BRestore the Sunday full backup, restore only the Wednesday incremental backup, and then apply all hourly state exports captured on Thursday up to 14:00.
- CRestore the Sunday full backup and directly apply all hourly state exports captured on Thursday up to 14:00, bypassing daily incremental files.
- DRestore the Wednesday incremental backup first to establish the latest daily baseline, apply the Thursday hourly state exports up to 14:00, and finalize by restoring the Sunday full backup.
Cevap
The correct restoration sequence requires restoring the Sunday full backup, followed sequentially by the Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday incremental backups, and finally applying all hourly state exports recorded on Thursday prior to the outage at 14:15.
An incremental backup set records only the data modified since the previous backup event (whether full or incremental). To achieve a complete point-in-time recovery, the administrator must first restore the baseline full backup (Sunday), followed by each daily incremental backup in chronological order (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday), and finally apply point-in-time state exports (Thursday hourly exports up to 14:00).
