A technician notices that the weekly backup is taking too long to complete. The daily backups are incremental. Which of the following would most likely resolve the issue?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Synthetic full backups consolidate the most recent full backup and subsequent incremental backups into a new full backup on the backup storage, without repeatedly reading all data from the production systems. This approach significantly reduces the time impact on the network and source systems during the weekly backup window while still providing a full backup set for restoration.

Wait, are incremental backups really that slow?

Increasing the backup storage seems like it wouldn't really help with the speed issue, but I might be mixing it up with another question we practiced.

Running synthetic full weekly backups sounds familiar; I think it could reduce the time since it doesn't require all the data to be transferred again.

I've seen this type of issue before. Changing the backup window or running synthetic full backups are probably the best options to speed things up. I'm going to go with D.

I'm a little confused by the difference between incremental and synthetic full backups. I'll need to review that concept before deciding on the best answer.

Okay, let's see here. If the daily backups are incremental, then running a full weekly backup might help reduce the time it takes. I'm leaning towards option D.

This seems like a pretty straightforward question. I think the answer is probably changing the backup window to give it more time to complete.

Hmm, I'm leaning towards B. Incremental weekly backups might be the answer here. Less data to transfer than a full backup, but still keeping things fresh. Plus, it's alliterative - can't go wrong with that!

Ah, the age-old backup dilemma. I'd say C is the way to go - more storage is the easiest solution. Who needs fancy synthetic backups when you can just throw more hard drives at the problem?

Definitely go with D. Synthetic full weekly backups will save us a ton of time and storage space. I can't believe we haven't been doing this already!
