VMCE Replication and Recovery 5

Question 1

What is the purpose of 'replica target datastore free space' threshold in Veeam replication job settings?

Accepted Answer

It warns or stops the job when the DR datastore has insufficient free space for replica operations

Answer

Veeam monitors DR target datastore free space and can warn or abort the replication job if space falls below the configured threshold, preventing failed replications.

Question 2

In Veeam's replication architecture, what role does the 'target proxy' play?

Accepted Answer

It receives data from the source proxy and writes it to the replica VM at the DR site

Answer

The target proxy receives the replicated data stream from the source proxy and writes the VM blocks to the replica datastore at the DR site.

Question 3

What Veeam capability allows you to failover multiple VMs simultaneously as a coordinated group?

Accepted Answer

Failover Plan

Answer

A Failover Plan in Veeam lets you define an ordered group of VMs to fail over together, including boot delays and sequencing, enabling a full DR site activation in one action.

Question 4

When Veeam performs Failback using the 'Restore to original location' option, what data source does it use by default?

Accepted Answer

The running replica VM at the DR site

Answer

Failback using 'Restore to original location' uses the running replica VM as the source, reverse-replicating its current state back to the original production location.

Question 5

Which setting in a Veeam replication job controls how many simultaneous VM replication tasks can run within that job?

Accepted Answer

Max concurrent tasks per job configured in job advanced settings

Answer

The max concurrent tasks setting in the job's advanced settings controls how many VMs in the job replicate simultaneously, balancing speed against resource consumption.
