Gold tier virtual machines have a recovery point objective of one hour for image backup. Which transport mode could you use during the redesign? (Choose 2)
Correct Answer: A,E
Explanation The transport modes that could be used during the redesign for gold tier virtual machines with a one-hour RPO are Virtual Appliance (HotAdd) and Backup from Storage Snapshots. A transport mode is a method of retrieving VM data from the source storage during backup or replication. Virtual Appliance (HotAdd) is a transport mode that allows a proxy server running on a VM to attach disks of another VM to itself via hot-add SCSI commands and read data directly from these disks. Backup from Storage Snapshots is a transport mode that allows a proxy server to retrieve data from storage snapshots created by supported storage systems without affecting the production VMs or hosts. Both transport modes can improve backup performance, reduce backup window, and minimize impact on the production environment.
Question 7
What information related to the virtual infrastructure is missing and must be collected during the discovery phase? (Choose 2)
Correct Answer: A,D
Explanation To design a solution that meets the virtual infrastructure requirements for Veeam University Hospital, you need to collect some information during the discovery phase. This information will help you to understand the configuration and performance of the VMware clusters, the size and type of the data, and the backup and recovery objectives. According to the Veeam Backup & Replication Best Practice Guide, some of the information related to the virtual infrastructure that is missing and must be collected during the discovery phase are: *Local area network speed. This information will help you to determine the network bandwidth and throughput that are available for backup and replication traffic, as well as the impact of backup and replication activities on the network performance and latency. *Size of the source data set. This information will help you to estimate the backup storage requirements, as well as the backup compression and deduplication ratios, based on the size and type of the data. Therefore, the correct answer is A and D.
Question 8
The customer decides to add extra proxy in anticipation of an acquisition that is planned for 12 months out, rather than wait until the acquisition is completed to expand the Veeam Infrastructure. What will be the immediate result of adding the extra proxy server?
Correct Answer: A
Explanation Thank you for your question. I'm glad to help you with your VMCA 2022 project. To design a solution that meets the needs and requirements of Veeam University Hospital, you need to consider the impact and benefit of adding extra proxy servers to your backup infrastructure. This will help you to optimize the performance and efficiency of your backup and restore operations, as well as to prepare for future growth and expansion. According to the web search results, a proxy server is a component that retrieves data from the source host, processes it and transfers to the backup repository. It also performs data compression, deduplication, encryption, etc. You can deploy backup proxies both in the primary site and in remote sites1. The immediate result of adding the extra proxy server is A. The time for backup to complete could be reduced. This result means that: *The time for backup to complete is a metric that measures how long it takes to perform a backup job from start to finish. It depends on various factors, such as the size and type of data, the backup method and frequency, the network bandwidth and latency, etc. *Adding an extra proxy server can reduce the time for backup to complete, by distributing the backup workload between available proxy servers. This can improve the backup performance and efficiency, as well as reduce the impact on the production environment. *Reducing the time for backup to complete can also help you to meet your backup window and recovery point objective (RPO) requirements, as well as to free up more resources for other tasks or jobs.
Question 9
The customer has stated that they plan on purchasing new physical server component and repository storage. What additional information is needed to define the implementation process later?
Correct Answer: B
Explanation The additional information that is needed to define the implementation process later is how much backup data is stored on the old hardware. This information is important for designing and sizing the migration strategy and timeline for moving the backups from the old hardware to the new hardware. For example, you can use the amount of backup data to estimate how long it will take to copy or move the backups to the new storage devices. You can also use the amount of backup data to determine whether you need to use compression, deduplication, or WAN acceleration to optimize the migration traffic.

Question 10
Veeam University Hospital is considering using Veeam ONE to collect alarms from the virtual and backup infrastructure. What option is available for integrating the solution with ticketing systems?
Correct Answer: A
Explanation Veeam University Hospital is considering using Veeam ONE to collect alarms from the virtual and backup infrastructure. Veeam ONE is a powerful monitoring and reporting tool that provides visibility and insight into the performance, configuration, and utilization of your backup and virtual infrastructure. Veeam ONE can also alert you about any issues or problems that may affect the availability or reliability of your data protection and recovery processes. One of the options that is available for integrating Veeam ONE with ticketing systems is A. Configure Veeam ONE to send SNMP traps to the ticketing system. This option means that: *SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a protocol that allows network devices to communicate and exchange information with each other. *SNMP traps are messages that are sent by network devices to notify a management system about events or conditions that require attention or action. *Veeam ONE can be configured to send SNMP traps to a ticketing system when an alarm is triggered or resolved. This allows you to automate the creation and update of tickets based on the alarm data, such as the alarm name, severity, status, description, etc. *To configure Veeam ONE to send SNMP traps to a ticketing system, you need to enable SNMP notifications in the Veeam ONE settings, as well as specify the SNMP server address, port, community string, and trap format. You also need to configure the ticketing system to receive and process the SNMP traps from Veeam ONE. This option is a good choice for integrating Veeam ONE with ticketing systems, as it allows you to leverage the benefits and features of both solutions, such as: *You can use Veeam ONE to monitor and analyze your backup and virtual infrastructure, as well as to detect and alert you about any issues or problems that may affect your data protection and recovery processes. *You can use the ticketing system to manage and track the resolution of the issues or problems that are reported by Veeam ONE, as well as to assign and prioritize tickets to the appropriate staff or team members.
