Which of the following will achieve the RPO?

15 VMs are running on a Hyper-V platform and five physical servers at a remote office (ROBO). The administrator has been tasked with setting up centralized off-site backups at the headquarters (HQ). The available bandwidth is 50 Mbps. RPO is set to six hours and the data generated for the interval is 500 GB. WAN accelerators can be added if necessary.

Which of the following will achieve the RPO?
A . Use backup copy jobs in with High-Performance Mode enabled. Set the schedule to run every six hours.
B. Use backup copy jobs with copy mode set to "immediate copy". Use WAN acceleration.
C. Use backup copy jobs with copy mode set to "periodic copy" and copy every six hours.
D. Configure the backup copy jobs with traffic throttling to 30 Mbps to limit the impact.
Enable WAN acceleration.

Answer: B

Explanation:

According to the Veeam Backup & Replication user guide12, WAN acceleration is a technology that optimizes data transfer to remote locations by performing deduplication and caching. It is specific for off-site backup copy jobs and replication jobs12. Therefore, if you want to achieve the RPO of six hours with 500 GB of data and 50 Mbps of bandwidth, you should use backup copy jobs with WAN acceleration enabled. This will reduce the amount of data that needs to be transferred over the network and speed up the backup process12. The simplest configuration would be an immediate copy mode with WAN acceleration
