Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate AZ-104 Practice Question
You are an Azure administrator tasked with configuring backups for a set of virtual machines (VMs) in Azure. The company's compliance requirements mandate that daily backups must be retained for 30 days, weekly backups for 12 weeks, and monthly backups for 12 months. Which action should you take to meet these retention requirements?
Use Azure Site Recovery to replicate the VMs and manage retention.
Configure the default retention policy in Azure Backup.
Select the pre-defined 'Enhanced Retention' policy in Azure Backup.
Create a backup policy with custom retention settings and assign it to the VMs.
To meet the specified retention requirements, you should create a backup policy with custom retention settings and assign it to the VMs. Azure Backup allows administrators to define custom policies where they can specify the frequency of backups and retention periods for daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly backups. Using pre-defined or default policies will not satisfy the company's specific retention needs, as they come with standard settings that may not align with the compliance requirements. Azure Site Recovery is intended for disaster recovery scenarios and does not manage backup retention policies.
