Answer Options

Perform a full system shutdown and move the servers to Azure without any replication.
D
Use Azure Backup Vault to replicate the servers to Azure and then perform a failover.
Correct Answer
B: Use Azure Site Recovery to replicate the servers to Azure and then perform a failover to test the recovery plan.
Explanation
The correct answer is B. To ensure a smooth migration and protect servers during the transition, Contoso Ltd should use Azure Site Recovery to replicate the on-premises servers to Azure and then perform a failover to test the recovery plan. This helps in validating the disaster recovery plan and ensures that the servers can be quickly restored in case of a failure. Option A is incorrect because it does not mention the use of Azure Site Recovery for the migration. Option C is incorrect as it does not address the need for testing the recovery plan. Option D is incorrect because it does not provide a comprehensive approach to the migration and protection of servers.
