AZ-104 Certification Practice Question #36

Question

Your company has an Azure subscription that includes a Recovery Services vault.
You want to use Azure Backup to schedule a backup of your company's virtual machines (VMs) to the Recovery Services vault.
Which of the following VMs can you back up? Choose all that apply.

Accepted Answer

According to the Azure Backup support matrix for Azure VM backup, all of the listed virtual machines can be backed up to a Recovery Services vault. Specifically: Windows 10 (64-bit) is a supported guest client operating system; Windows Server 2012 and higher server operating systems are fully supported; Debian (from 7.9 onwards) is a supported Linux guest distribution; and Azure Backup can successfully protect virtual machines regardless of whether they are currently running (not shut down) or shut down (offline), with the latter producing crash-consistent backups. Therefore, all five options are correct.
