Full set: 48 questions
Answer options
A: VM Proxy
B: Hosts Correct answer
C: Protection Storage
D: Clusters Correct answer
E: Virtual Machines Correct answer
Correct Answer:
B. Hosts; D. Clusters; E. Virtual Machines
Explanation

When a vCenter Server is added as an asset source in PowerProtect Data Manager, a discovery process is initiated to inventory the virtual environment. This process identifies the key manageable assets within vCenter. The discovered components include the virtual machines (the primary assets to be protected), the ESXi hosts on which they run, and the clusters that organize the hosts. This inventory allows administrators to browse and select assets for protection policies.

Why Incorrect

A. The VM Proxy is a PowerProtect Data Manager component that is deployed into the vCenter environment to perform backups; it is not discovered from it.
C. Protection Storage, such as a PowerProtect DD series appliance, is a backup target configured separately in PowerProtect Data Manager, not an asset discovered within vCenter.
