A customer has a current EMC NetWorker LAN backup environment. The environment is using a
local EMC Disk Library (EDL) with replication to a remote disaster recovery site. They want to
introduce a four Data Mover Celerra into their environment for consolidated Windows user
collaborative data on CIFS shares.
Which backup deployment would you suggest that has the least disruptive hardware impact to the
customer’s current backup procedure?

A customer is considering implementing an EMC Disk Library with Active Engine Failover (AEF).
Front-end ports 1, 3, and 4 from Engine A will be connected to the SAN. On Engine B, front-end
ports 7, 8, and 11 will be connected to the SAN.
To ensure proper AEF functionality, what is the total number of front-end ports from both engines
that need to be connected to the SAN?

The EMC account team has been asked to design a Network backup solution for a VMware
ESX3.5 environment with the following requirements:
1. Reduce workload on the ESX server during backups
2. Eliminate backup traffic from the LAN by moving data directly from the SAN
3. Support file-level backups for virtual machines running Microsoft Windows
What is a recommended backup solution?

A data center consisting of six Microsoft Windows file servers must be backed up. Each file server
contains 750,000 files and approximately 150 GB of data. The file servers have been tested
simultaneously. Each file server can read data from the network and write it to disk at the rate of
75 GB per hour. The data center has a 10 Gigabit Ethernet backbone.
What is the minimum number of Avamar 2 TB data nodes that should be ordered to perform a
recovery of all six file servers and achieve a recovery time objective of 8 hours?

A Symantec Backup Exec customer purchased an EMC Disk Library (EDL) last year and performs
1.5 TB of nightly backups. Backup Exec is used to copy EDL virtual tapes to physical tapes to
satisfy offsite requirements. The daily backup and tape copying workload is becoming a challenge
for their Backup Exec server.
The customer is exploring EDL-to-EDL replication to a second a second site seven miles always to
eliminate physical tape and reduce the Backup Exec server workload. Which EDL relocation
option meets the customer’s requirements?

An Avamar customer is using replication between two data centers. There is a T1 line between the
data centers and it is dedicated to Avamar replication. The customer is concerned that Avamar
replication is only getting throughput of 1.1 megabits per second during replication.
What should be changed in the design and implementation of this solution?

A customer has acquired multiple companies with a combination of IBM Tivoli Storage Manager,
EMC NetWorker, and IBM iSeries BRMS backups to physical tape in their data center. They have
a data carter 15 miles away that plan to use for disaster recovery. Dark fiber between the two sites
exists.
The customer has asked EMC to help improve their backup performance and reliability. They also
want to eliminate the need to move physical tapes offsite each day. Which recomme4ndation
satisfies the customer’s requirements?

A single-engine EMC Disk Library (EDL) is being proposed with Remote Copy functionality
replicate data to a remote EDL. One of the EDLs will have four network connections while the
other one will have two network connections.
How many ports will be used in each EDL during a replication session?

An EMC Avamar customer wants to start backing up their VMware environment. The customer’s
goal is to have image-level backup while having a low impact on the ESX server. In addition, they
want the ability to perform file-level restores of their Microsoft Windows clients.
Which backup method will meet the customer’s needs?

A customer has Oracle 9i running on a Microsoft Windows server. They want to deploy hot
backups because the database cannot be shut down. What is a design consideration for backups
when using the Avamar plug-in for Oracle?
