Explanation
The recovery point objective (RPO) requirement of periodic backups every hour for gold tier virtual machines directly conflicts with the technical requirement of all backups must complete within the hours of 5 p.m. to 8 a.m. local time. This is because these two requirements are mutually exclusive, as hourly backups would need to run during the daytime as well as the nighttime, while the backup window only allows backups to run during the nighttime. Therefore, you need to get clarification from the customer on which requirement has priority and how to adjust the other one accordingly.
