Recovery Services Vault

###

Notes

• Creating a Recovery Services vault will allow you to back up the VM to a different region and location. You will enable replication to ensure that VM data and settings are continually replicated to the backup location for simple recovery
• Taking backup for virtual machines - The virtual machines must exist within the same region as the Recovery Services vault in order to back them up
• To create a daily backup of VM1
  • A Recovery Services vault - A Recovery Services vault (RSV) is used to store backups of your VMs in a different region
  • A backup policy - A backup policy is used to configure how backups are taken and how often they are kept
• You have already begun implementing a solution by first creating an Azure Recovery Services vault. Which of the following would you do next to implement a backup solution
  • Create a backup policy - Since you have already created a Recovery Services vault, the next logical step is to configure the backup policy for the backup solution
• After the initial backup of VM1, you are instructed to delete the vault and all of the backup data. What should you do?
  • top the backup of VM1 and delete backup data - If you stop the backup of VM1 and choose Delete backup data from the dropdown menu, this will stop future backups and delete the existing backup data
  • Turn off soft delete in the vault security settings - When you stop the backup and delete the backup data, because you have soft delete enabled, the backup data is still kept. Permanently deleting the soft-deleted backup items would remove the backup data indefinitely
