ACE Cloud Deployment & Migration 2 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: When migrating a physical server to Acronis Cloud using the P2C (Physical-to-Cloud) workflow, which agent must be installed on the source machine?
- Acronis Backup Agent (Correct answer)
- Acronis Cyber Infrastructure Agent
- Acronis Management Server Agent
- Acronis Notary Agent
Correct answer: Acronis Backup Agent
The Acronis Backup Agent must be installed on the source physical machine to enable P2C migration to Acronis Cloud.
Question 2: In Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud, what is the purpose of the 'cloud-to-cloud' (C2C) backup feature?
- Backing up data between two on-premises data centers
- Protecting SaaS application data such as Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace (Correct answer)
- Replicating virtual machines between two cloud providers
- Synchronizing Acronis backup catalogs across regions
Correct answer: Protecting SaaS application data such as Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace
Cloud-to-cloud backup protects SaaS data (Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, etc.) by backing it up within Acronis Cloud.
Question 3: What networking requirement must be met before an Acronis Cloud VM can communicate with on-premises resources after a migration?
- A public IP must be assigned to the cloud VM
- A site-to-site VPN or Acronis network connection must be configured (Correct answer)
- The on-premises firewall must be disabled
- DNS must be set to automatic
Correct answer: A site-to-site VPN or Acronis network connection must be configured
A site-to-site VPN or Acronis network connection is required to allow cloud VMs to communicate securely with on-premises resources.
Question 4: Which Acronis feature allows administrators to keep a cloud standby VM continuously updated with the latest backup data for rapid failover?
- Cold Standby
- Warm Standby (Correct answer)
- Hot Standby
- Instant Restore
Correct answer: Warm Standby
Warm Standby keeps a standby VM in the cloud powered off but regularly updated, enabling fast failover with minimal data loss.
Question 5: When configuring a cloud deployment in Acronis Cyber Protect, what does the 'storage quota' setting control?
- The maximum number of VMs that can be backed up
- The total amount of cloud storage allocated to a tenant or customer (Correct answer)
- The retention period for backup archives
- The bandwidth cap for data transfers
Correct answer: The total amount of cloud storage allocated to a tenant or customer
Storage quota defines the maximum cloud storage space allocated to a specific tenant or customer account.
Question 6: During a cloud migration in Acronis, what is the role of the 'target cloud VM configuration' step?
- Selecting the backup retention policy
- Defining CPU, RAM, and storage specs for the destination VM in the cloud (Correct answer)
- Installing the Acronis agent on the cloud VM
- Configuring the cloud VM's firewall rules
Correct answer: Defining CPU, RAM, and storage specs for the destination VM in the cloud
The target configuration step lets administrators specify the hardware profile (CPU, RAM, disks) the migrated VM will use in the cloud.
Question 7: Which Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud deployment option is best suited for service providers who want to offer backup-as-a-service to multiple end customers with isolated data?
- Single-tenant deployment
- Multi-tenant deployment (Correct answer)
- Hybrid deployment
- Edge deployment
Correct answer: Multi-tenant deployment
Multi-tenant deployment allows service providers to host multiple isolated customer environments within a single Acronis infrastructure.
