QuestionQ5

Backup and Restore

A VMware Administrator must restore a VM after a recent server patch update corrupts the VM operating system.

What is the fastest way to restore the VM?

  • A From vCenter vSphere client, use SnapCenter Plug-In for VMware vSphere to restore the VM
  • B From the SnapCenter Server, use SnapCenter Plug-In for VMware vSphere to restore the VM
  • C From ONTAP System Manager, create a FlexClone of a Snapshot before the patch update, andmount to vSphere
  • D From ONTAP System Manager, rollback the datastore volume containing multiple VMs to a previousSnapshot
Explanation

The SnapCenter Plug-in for VMware vSphere uses the VMware vSphere Client in vCenter for VM backup and restore operations. Restoring the affected VM through that interface recovers the individual VM without rolling back a datastore that contains other VMs.
