Your company has created a personal host pool with Windows 7 VMs for supporting a legacy application. FSLogix was not utilized for the deployment and you have been asked to suggest a disaster recovery solution. Cost is a consideration but not at the expense of a delay in business continuity. Which of the following is the best solution you will suggest?

Question

Accepted Answer

C. Use site recovery services to replicate the session hosts to a secondary region Azure Site Recovery (ASR) provides near real-time replication of entire virtual machines to a secondary region, enabling a quick failover with minimal downtime and data loss. This directly addresses the requirement for business continuity with minimal delay, as ASR replicates the OS disk, data disks, and machine configuration, making it suitable for disaster recovery of personal session hosts.

Answer

A. Use Azure Backup to backup the session host to a secondary region Azure Backup is primarily for data protection and recovery, not for immediate failover of an entire running VM to ensure business continuity, as restoring from backup causes significant downtime.

Answer

B. Backup the profile containers and image to a secondary region Backing up only profile containers (which are not used here) and the image would still require manual deployment and configuration of new session hosts, leading to a substantial delay in business continuity.

Answer

D. None of these. All these will lead to a delay in business continuity This statement is incorrect because Azure Site Recovery (option C) specifically addresses the requirement for maintaining business continuity with minimal delay in a disaster scenario.
