An EMC NetWorker customer has added a NetWorker deduplication node to their existing
NetWorker environment. They have set up offsite cloning of all metadata. In addition, they have
setup replication to an offsite Avamar at their disaster recovery site.
The customer would like a review to assist in setting up the most efficient use of their existing
storage. Which steps are needed?

A customer is using an EMC NetWorker server and NMSQL on all SQL servers. They would like to
use Data Domain as a backup device for the databases and special dump logs.

An EMC customer is currently using NetWorker, Data Domain configured as an NDMP tape
server, and VNX. The Data Domain and the VNX both have supported HBAs. The customer
configured the NDMP backup in NetWorker and has noticed that the data is not traversing over the
HBA cards. Rather, the data is being set over the LAN.
Why is the backup data being backed up over the LAN directly to the Data Domain system?

An EMC customer is building a backup and recovery solution for their Microsoft SharePoint
environment. The solution being considered involves using Avamar to back up a SharePoint

support this environment?

A company just converted its physical server environment to a virtual environment using vSphere
