   A backup administrator is managing a data protection environment where a critical application must be restored within 4 hours (RTO). The administrator performs a test restore and finds that the restore takes 6 hours. The backup data is stored on a high-performance disk array. What should the administrator do to meet the RTO?

   • AIncrease the backup frequency to create more recovery points, which will speed up the restore.
   • BAccept the 6-hour restore time and update the RTO to 6 hours.
   • CAnalyze the restore process to identify bottlenecks, such as network throughput or application recovery steps, and optimize them.
   • DMove the backup data to a slower, less expensive storage tier to reduce costs.

   A backup administrator is managing a data protection environment with a service-level agreement (SLA) that requires a 99.9% backup success rate. The current success rate is 99.5%. The administrator has already verified that the backup jobs are configured correctly and the storage is healthy. What should the administrator do next to improve the success rate?

   • AIncrease the backup frequency to create more recovery points, which will improve the success rate.
   • BAnalyze the backup failure reports to identify common failure points and address them.
   • CNegotiate with management to lower the SLA target to 99.5%.
   • DExtend the backup window to allow more time for jobs to complete.
