Which information is needed to architect a solution for the customer?
A long-term EMC SRDF customer wants to make their backups tapeless. The customer has
asked for your recommendation on the bandwidth required for replication of 10 TB of daily
backup data that is currently going to tape nightly. Bandwidth is provided by two OC-3
circuits between the source and target data center locations. Which information is needed to
architect a solution for the customer?
What is a key concern that you should discuss with the customer?
A customer has asked you to assess their current backup environment. The environment is
currently using an offsite physical tape vaulting rotation for compliance purposes. What is a
key concern that you should discuss with the customer?
What are the appropriate DPA licensing requirements?
You are designing a Data Protection Advisor (DPA) solution to support a NAS environment.
The environment consists of a Celerra, a NetApp file server, a backup infrastructure of 185
NetWorker clients, and 300 Symantec NetBackup clients. What are the appropriate DPA
licensing requirements?
What are the “in-flight encryption” considerations?
A customer is considering an EMC Avamar backup solution. They want to know whether
Avamar can provide the security benefit of data encryption between the clients and the
Avamar server. What are the “in-flight encryption” considerations?
What is considered the most suitable approach to meet these requirements?
An EMC Avamar customer has a heavily utilized ESX system where CPU utilization is a
concern. Each guest system, all of which are Linux, must be backed up with file granularity.
The customer has both Avamar and NetWorker available and is looking to EMC for
guidance What is considered the most suitable approach to meet these requirements?
which key encryption-at-rest factor(s) should be considered?
A customer wants to deploy encryption-at-rest for Avamar. When sizing a new solution,
which key encryption-at-rest factor(s) should be considered?
What is the minimum number of 2 TB data nodes needed to satisfy this requirement?
A potential Avamar customer has 4 TB of data to back up, which is spread across many
clients. All clients are in the same data center as the Avamar server with Gigabit Ethernet
connecting all hosts. The customer has a requirement to perform their initial backups within
80 hours. What is the minimum number of 2 TB data nodes needed to satisfy this
requirement?
Where will the Avamar client and the Avamar VCB Interoperability Module be installed?
A customer wants to back up VMware using Avamar to leverage deduplication. They have
been and want to continue performing VCB backups. Where will the Avamar client and the
Avamar VCB Interoperability Module be installed?
Which method of VMware backup will meet the customer’s needs?
An EMC Avamar customer wants to start backing up their VMware environment. The
customer’s goal is to obtain the highest level of data deduplication support for file system
and application backups. In addition, they do not want to have to train their administrators
on a new backup method. Which method of VMware backup will meet the customer’s
needs?
Which follows EMC best practices for setting up groups and policies?
A new EMC Avamar customer wants advice on setting up their groups and schedules. The
customer has a mixed environment and is migrating from a traditional tape backup solution
with a mixed retention policy. Which follows EMC best practices for setting up groups and
policies?
