Which of the following statements about Veeam ratings is incorrect?

Question

Options

• ABackup server resources are occupied
• BOnly public cloud storage can be supported as a secondary backup device
• CBackup software can directly restore long-term retained copies
• DPolicies are configured and managed on the backup software, and are hierarchically controllable

• A
  3% (2)
• B
  81% (50)
• C
  5% (3)
• D
  11% (7)

Explanation

Option B is incorrect because Veeam supports multiple types of secondary backup storage targets - not just public cloud. On-premises object storage (e.g., MinIO, Wasabi), tape libraries, NAS devices, and various repository types can all serve as secondary backup destinations through Veeam's Scale-Out Backup Repository (SOBR) and capacity/archive tier features.

Options A, C, and D describe accurate Veeam behaviors: the backup server does consume compute and memory resources during job execution (A); Veeam can restore directly from archive/long-term retention copies without a separate manual retrieval workflow (C); and backup policies in Veeam are centrally configured on the backup server and support hierarchical control across jobs, repositories, and tenants (D).

Memory tip: Think of the word "Only" in option B as a red flag - in enterprise backup solutions, vendor lock-in to a single storage type is almost never true. Veeam's core value proposition is storage flexibility, so any statement claiming it restricts you to only one storage class is almost certainly wrong.
