Topic #: 6

A backup administrator has defined a backup policy The policy requires full backups to be performed at 9 PM every Sunday and incremental backups performed at 9 PM the remaining days If files were accidentally deleted Thursday morning, how many backup copies are required to restore the files?

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

In your scenario, a full backup was performed on Sunday and incremental backups were performed on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. If files were accidentally deleted Thursday morning, you would needtwobackup copies to restore the files:the full backup from Sunday and the incremental backup from Wednesday. This is because the incremental backup from Wednesday would contain all the changes made since Sunday's full backup.

Absolutely. This exam is really testing our understanding of backup strategies. I'm glad they're not just asking us to memorize definitions.

Ah, good catch! In that case, the answer would be option B, 5 backup copies. Gotta cover all our bases, right?

You know, I was thinking the same thing. But wait, what if the files were deleted right after the Wednesday incremental backup? Wouldn't we need the Thursday incremental as well?

Hmm, I'm leaning towards option C, 4 backup copies. That would cover the full backup on the previous Sunday and the incremental backups on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.

I agree, it's not as simple as it first appears. We need to think about the full and incremental backups to determine the number of copies required.

This is a tricky question. The backup policy seems straightforward, but we need to consider the specific scenario of files being deleted on Thursday morning.
