A government agency replicates VMs to a cloud provider for DR. The agency must comply with data sovereignty laws that require data to remain within the country's borders. Which configuration is necessary?

Enable multi-factor authentication on the cloud account.

Encrypt the replication traffic.

Select a cloud region located within the country.

Use a private cloud instead of a public cloud.

An organization is planning to virtualize its DR environment. The current physical servers run a mix of Windows and Linux workloads. The DR team wants to minimize hardware dependency and enable rapid failover. Which virtualization benefit is most directly leveraged to achieve this?

Hypervisors eliminate the need for backups.

Hardware independence of VMs allows them to run on any compatible hypervisor.

Virtualization reduces the need for DR testing.

VMs automatically replicate to any site without configuration.

A company runs a mission-critical VM on VMware vSphere at its primary site. The DR site has an identical vSphere cluster. The RPO must be under 5 minutes, and the VM must be automatically started at the DR site if the primary site fails. The storage arrays at both sites support synchronous replication. Which configuration should the DR administrator implement?

Configure vSphere Replication with a 5-minute RPO and set up a recovery plan in Site Recovery Manager to automate failover.

Use array-based synchronous replication and configure Site Recovery Manager to orchestrate automated failover of the VM.

Take a nightly snapshot of the VM and copy the snapshot files to the DR site using a scheduled script.

Enable vSphere High Availability (HA) across both sites and let it restart the VM on the DR cluster if the host fails.

In the context of virtual machine replication, what is the primary purpose of maintaining a recovery point objective (RPO)?

To specify the maximum time allowed to restore service after a disaster

To determine the number of virtual machines that can be replicated simultaneously

To define the maximum acceptable amount of data loss measured in time

To ensure that all virtual machines are replicated to the same secondary site

Virtualization-Based Disaster Recovery EDRP Practice Questions (Page 4)

Part of the System and Virtualization Recovery domain, which makes up ~23% of our current practice bank. EC-Council does not publish an official question count, but from its 240-minute exam (~95–160 total, ~22–37 in this domain), expect 7–12 from this objective — we provide 45 practice questions to prepare you well beyond it.
