In Profile Management, which policy helps prevent data loss when a VDA session crashes?

• A. Active Write Back
• B. Profile Streaming
• C. Delay Cached Profile Deletion
• D. Profile Caching

Answer: (A)

Preventing data loss when a VDA session crashes relies on writing user profile changes back to the central profile store as they happen. Active Write Back does exactly this: it writes profile data back to the store during the session rather than waiting for logoff. This means recent edits, new files, and settings are saved continuously, so if the session ends abruptly, much of the user's work is already persisted. Profile Streaming loads data on demand and isn’t focused on preserving in-session changes; Delay Cached Profile Deletion only affects how cached profiles are removed on logoff, not real-time data safety; Profile Caching keeps a local copy for performance but doesn’t guarantee protection against crash-related data loss. So Active Write Back is the policy that minimizes data loss in crash scenarios by persisting changes as they occur.
