AZ-104 Certification Practice Question #183

Question

You plan to back up an Azure virtual machine named VM1.
You discover that the Backup Pre-Check status displays a status of Warning.
What is a possible cause of the Warning status?

Accepted Answer

The Backup Pre-Check assesses VM configurations for potential backup failure issues. Under Azure Backup documentation, a "Warning" state is generated for configurations that might cause intermittent backup failures, with the primary example being when the VM does not have the latest Azure VM Agent installed. A stopped VM or network isolation that prevents backup altogether would generally lead to a Critical state.
