Which two Data Protection technologies are compatible with Self-Service Restore? (Choose two.)

Self-Service Restore (SSR) allows users to perform their own restores. It is fully compatible with asynchronous (Async) replication schedules, enabling both full VM and in-guest file-level restores. SSR is also compatible with Nearsync schedules, but only for full VM restores; file-level restore is not supported from Nearsync recovery points. Because the question asks for compatible technologies and Nearsync supports a key SSR function (VM restore), it is a correct choice alongside the fully compatible Async schedule.

C. Synchronous data replication (Metro Availability) is a continuous availability solution, not a snapshot-based technology compatible with the Self-Service Restore portal for point-in-time recovery.

D. While Volume Groups can be protected, SSR is a feature primarily for restoring virtual machines and files within them, not for managing block-level snapshots of Volume Groups directly.

1. Nutanix Prism Central Guide (pc-2023.3), "Self-Service Restore", Section: "Self-Service Restore Prerequisites and Limitations". This section states: "File-level restore is not supported for NearSync, but you can restore a full VM." This confirms compatibility for VM restores from Nearsync.

2. Nutanix Data Protection and Recovery with Prism Element Guide (pe-2023.3), "Self-Service Restore (SSR)", Section: "Enabling Self-Service Restore". This section details that SSR works with snapshots created by Protection Policies, which include both Async and Nearsync schedules.
