Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate AZ-104 Practice Question
You need to configure daily backups for several Azure virtual machines to ensure data protection. Which Azure resource must you create first to store the backup data and recovery points for these VMs?
To enable backups for Azure virtual machines, you must first create a Recovery Services vault. This vault is a storage entity in Azure that holds backup data and configuration information for resources like IaaS VMs. An Azure Backup vault is used for other workloads, such as Azure Database for PostgreSQL and Azure Disks, but not for IaaS VM backups. While a Recovery Services vault uses Azure Storage in the background, the storage account is not the primary resource you create and manage for this task. Azure Site Recovery is a service for disaster recovery, which is also configured within a Recovery Services vault, but the vault itself is the required container.
