Q: 17
A company has an application on a VMware VM that stores customer photos. Customers may request their photos be removed at any time. The server needs to be restored from last week's backup. What Veeam restore process allows for custom scripting to be run to automatically remove any required photos before the server is returned to production?

Staged Restore is the feature you're looking for here, so C. It lets you run scripts in an isolated lab before pushing the VM back to production. Saw similar setups in official guides and labs. Pretty sure that's the Veeam-recommended way, but open to other takes if anyone's used a different process.
Option C makes the most sense here. Staged Restore is the only Veeam process that lets you run custom scripts in an isolated environment before putting the VM back into production, which covers deleting the requested customer photos. B is a trap since Instant VM Recovery doesn't let you modify data before going live. Pretty sure this is what Veeam intends, but open if someone has a strong case for another.
Its B, pretty sure the failover needs that commit to finalize. Let me know if you see it differently.
Nah, I think it's C. Staged Restore actually lets you run custom scripts in an isolated lab before putting the VM back live, which is needed for data removals. B only gets the server up fast but doesn't let you modify first.
B tbh, had something like this in a mock. Seemed right since failover needs a commit step, so locking in B.
