Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Block volume backups can only be restored within the exact same availability domain where they were created.
Why it's wrong here
Block volume backups are region-agnostic once stored and can be restored to any availability domain within the same region, or copied across regions.
- ✗
Creating a block volume backup requires stopping the attached compute instance to ensure data integrity.
Why it's wrong here
Backups can be taken while the instance is running and the volume is attached, without requiring downtime.
- ✓
Block volume backups are stored in OCI Object Storage and can be restored as new volumes.
Why this is correct
Backups of block volumes are automatically stored in Object Storage and can be used to create new volumes at any time.
- ✗
Block volume backups cannot be copied across different OCI regions.
Why it's wrong here
OCI supports cross-region backup copying for disaster recovery and multi-region data migration.
- ✓
You can configure volume backup policies to automate incremental and full backups on a recurring schedule.
Why this is correct
OCI provides volume backup policies (e.g., Gold, Silver, Bronze) to automate recurring scheduled backups effortlessly.
