Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate AZ-104 Practice Question
You are an Azure Administrator managing a production environment that includes several Azure Virtual Machines in the North Europe region. Your company requires a disaster recovery solution that allows failover to the West Europe region in case of a regional outage. You have been tasked with configuring replication of the VMs to the secondary region.
Which of the following steps should you perform first to set up the replication for the VMs?
Install the replication agent on the virtual machines.
Create an RSV in the West Europe region.
Enable replication for the virtual machines in the Azure portal.
Configure a backup policy for the virtual machines.
The first step in configuring disaster recovery with Azure Site Recovery is to create an RSV (Recovery Services vault) in the target region where you want to replicate your virtual machines. The RSV acts as a storage entity that holds the metadata and configuration information for the replication, as well as the recovery points. By creating the vault in the West Europe region, you ensure that your replicated data is stored in the region that will act as the failover location.
Option A is incorrect because you cannot enable replication until you have an RSV to manage the replication process. Option C is incorrect because configuring a backup policy pertains to Azure Backup, not replication for disaster recovery. Option D is incorrect because for Azure Virtual Machines, Azure Site Recovery provides agentless replication, so installing an agent is not necessary.
