    It appears that if you install the Azure Backup Agent it will automatically install the Server Backup feature as well, so the Server Backup feature does not have to be installed prior. The Azure backup agent is needed as you need to register Server2 with Azure. To restore a backup from another server, you need the vault credential (that is the vault that stores the backup of Server1). Once authenticated with the vault, you can choose a date to restore the backup. I saw the last part on a youtube video which i cant find anymore.
    My guess is that the answer is A.

      And why shouldn’t we have the credentials?

      We can use the same credentials provided for Server1, or download them again from Azure.

      Answer is A.

    “2 – Ensure that the Target machine and the Source machine are registered to the same backup vault.”

    Now i’m unsure about the answer, you do need a azure backup agent, which is provided with answer A, but C is also correct as you need both servers to be registered on the same backup vault, and that’s not stated on the question.
    Think i’ll go with answer A in this case.

      The vault is already configured:
      You perform daily backups of the data on Server1 to microsoft azure.

      No *modification* is needed to the vault config, you would just need to download the credential file from the management portal.

      A. makes more sense.

        @mslover
        The vault is configured to Server1. The question does not says if Server2 is registered to use vault.
        So, I need to configure the vault prior to use Server2, and then install Azure Agent. Answer is ‘C’.
