As It relates to application consistent backups, does this statement accurately describe the volume Shadow copy Service (VSS)?
Solution:The use of the VSS mechanism is only possible on Windows based VM's

You are helping a customer optimize their current data protection solution. They have a vital business application with a database that runs on PostgreSQL on Linux.
They are concerned about disaster recovery and ask If this data can be restored In an application -consistent way.
Is this a valid response regarding the customers environment and concerns?
Solution: Use me PostgreSOL backup mechanism to create a consistent backup to a dump file Then, use the backup solution to provide application-consistent backups.

Your customer contacts you to optimize their current data protection solution due to changing requirements.
The current solution is based on Commvault making backups to HPE StoreOnce appliances with VTL virtual Tape Library The backup rotation Is set to the following schema:
* Dally backup with a retention of 10 days
* Weekly backup with a retention of 2 months
* Monthly backup with a retention of 1 year
Customer requirements changed a week later, stating that the current retention schema should be revised
* Implementation of 3-2-1 best practices
* Retention of monthly data for 3 years
is this a possible solution to fulfill all customer requirements?
Solution: Create a copy job from the monthly backup data on the HPE StoreOnce appliance towards HPE Cloud Bank storage with a retention of 3 years.

You organize a workshop for your customers IT team to handover a newly deployed backup solution based on HPE StoreOnce backup targets with Veeam as the backup application Is this an important best practice for this scenario?
Solution:Use HW snapshot integration in the Job advanced properties it is much raster and has lighter impact on the production VMs to be hacked up.

A customer wants to replace an aging tape-based backup platform using a Grandfather-Father-Son (GFS) rotation scheme. They are considering replacing the entire solution with public cloud storage as a backup target is this a valid recommendation for this customer?
Solution: Cloud storage is ideal for the Grandfather copies of backup data for long-term data retention Keep an on-premises solution for the 'Son' copies to guarantee lower RTO and RPO numbers.
