Exam: az-801
Domain: Implement disaster recovery
Topic: Implement disaster recovery by using Azure Site Recovery
Difficulty: medium
In a scenario where a company needs to implement disaster recovery for its on-premises Hyper-V servers to Azure using Azure Site Recovery (ASR), which of the following steps should be taken first to ensure a successful failover test before the actual disaster occurs?
Answer Options
A
Configure the Azure Virtual Network (VNet) in the target subscription.
B
Configure protection settings for the virtual machines in the on-premises environment.
C
Perform a failover test from the Azure portal.
D
Deploy the Mobility Service agent on the on-premises Hyper-V hosts.
Correct Answer
B: Configure protection settings for the virtual machines in the on-premises environment.
Explanation
The correct answer is B because the initial setup involves configuring the protection settings for the virtual machines in the on-premises environment. This includes defining the replication schedule, network settings, and storage settings. Once this is done, you can perform a failover test to ensure that the virtual machines can be successfully moved to Azure without data loss or corruption. Options A, C, and D are incorrect as they represent actions that would be taken after the initial setup and configuration.
