Contoso Ltd is planning to implement Azure Backup for their on-premises servers using Azure Site Recovery. They want to ensure that backups are stored in an Azure Backup Vault with soft delete enabled. Which of the following steps should they follow to achieve this while ensuring the backup vault is properly configured for soft delete and Site Recovery integration?
Answer Options
A
Create a Recovery Services Vault and enable soft delete on it.
B
Create an Azure Backup Vault, enable soft delete on it, and then configure Azure Site Recovery to use a Recovery Services Vault.
C
Use a single Recovery Services Vault for both Azure Backup and Azure Site Recovery.
D
Configure Azure Backup Vault and Azure Site Recovery separately without enabling soft delete.
Correct Answer
B: Create an Azure Backup Vault, enable soft delete on it, and then configure Azure Site Recovery to use a Recovery Services Vault.
Explanation
The correct answer is B. To enable soft delete for the Azure Backup Vault, you need to configure the backup vault with the appropriate settings. Additionally, for Azure Site Recovery, you need to create a Recovery Services Vault and then configure the Site Recovery service to use the Recovery Services Vault. Option A is incorrect because it does not mention configuring the backup vault for soft delete. Option C is incorrect as it suggests using a Recovery Services Vault for Azure Backup, which is not necessary when using Azure Backup Vault. Option D is incorrect because it does not address the need for both a backup vault and a Recovery Services Vault for the given scenario.
