You have a small Hyper-V cluster built on two hosts that run Windows Server 2012 R2 Hyper-V.
You manage the virtual infrastructure by using System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2012.
Distributed Key Management is not installed.
You have the following servers in the environment:
You have the following requirements:
You must back up virtual machines at the host level.
You must be able to back up virtual machines that are configured for live migration.
You must be able to restore the entire VMM infrastructure.
You need to design and implement the backup plan.
What should you do?
A.
Run the following Windows PowerShell command:
Checkpoint-VM -Name DPMI -ComputerName SQL1
B.
Install the DPM console on VMM1
C.
Configure backup for all disk volumes on FILESERVER1.
D.
Install the VMM console on DPMI or
Run the following Windows PowerShell command:
Set-DPMGlobalProperty-DPMServerName DPM1-KnownVMMServers VMM1
Explanation:
DPM can be used along with Hyper-V, and Hyper-V Clusters for a perfect backup solution. DPM can be assigned the task of backing up a VM on one cluster
node, then if that VM ends up being moved/failed over/migrated to another cluster node DPM will contact Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) and automatically find out
where the VM was moved to. Then it will back up the VM as if it hadn’t even been moved at all.
Basically, DPM is an intelligent backup solution for Clustered Virtual Machines that move around to different nodes a lot. It will find the VM that it is supposed to
backup automatically and back it up as per usual.
To do this, the VMM Console needs to be installed on the DPM server.
