Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

A valid source backup and log chain with required access and final synchronization

DMS consumes prepared backups in supported backup-based workflows. The team must maintain the chain and access requirements. Diagnostic settings, DNS, and target sizing do not create source backups or replace the log chain. Source guide: PDF page(s) 63.
