A recovery drill boots VMs in twelve minutes, then database replay takes eighteen minutes and identity/DNS/validation takes fifteen more. The business RTO is thirty minutes. What is the correct assessment?

Choose the single best answer.

A.The RTO is twelve minutes minus eighteen minutes
B.The RTO is met because only VM boot counts
C.The sequential forty-five-minute recovery exceeds the RTO despite fast VM boot
D.The RPO is forty-five minutes because each dependency contributes downtime

Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

The sequential forty-five-minute recovery exceeds the RTO despite fast VM boot

For the stated sequential process, 12+18+15=45 minutes to business recovery. RTO includes dependencies and validation. These elapsed recovery steps do not establish a data-loss gap, and subtracting required work is invalid. Source guide: PDF page 36.
