A customer is using deduplication nodes in their EMC NetWorker environment. They have
configured a deduplication node to replicate to an alternate deduplication node and are cloning the
metadata to a secondary device. After several successful backups, the customer wants to validate
that they can recover data from the replication target.
What can be done to ensure the data is recovered from the replication target?

A customer has a large database server they would like to back up using EMC Avamar integration
with Data Domain. The server is an Intel x86-based machine with 16 GB of RAM. In addition, the
server has 10 GbE connectivity to the Data Domain and 1 GbE to the Avamar server.
Which initial p_cache and f_cache settings will maximize performance when using the Data
Domain client?

A customer has an EMC NetWorker deduplication node. The customer initiates a restore from a
client but it fails to obtain the required hash IDs for the selected files.
What is a potential reason for this behavior?

A customer has been using EMC Avamar for deduplication backups of VMware. They have been
performing guest level backups and now want to perform VMware image backups for disaster
recovery. In order to perform image backups, what is recommended for this environment?

A customer is adding a new IBM DB2 client to their existing EMC Avamar server environment.
They have ensured that they have root privileges on the system and DB2 is up and running
properly on the AIX 5.3 server. In addition, they have installed the AIX Avamar client and can ping
the Avamar server by hostname from the DB2 server.
The installation of the DB2 Avamar client plug-in is failing but passes an MD5sum check. What is
the probable cause of the failure?

A customer has a large Oracle database being backed up to an EMC Avamar server. The backup
runtime is exceeding their backup window. What is the recommended method to shorten the
backup runtime?

Click on the calculator icon in the upper left corner.
An EMC Avamar customer has an Avamar server with four 3.9 TB nodes. They are planning to
add a new client to backup to this server. This client has 4 GB of RAM and two file systems. The
first file system has 3 million files consuming .75 TB of space. The second file system contains 5
million files consuming 1 TB of space.
The customer wants to establish a benchmark for the client’s backups in order to determine if the
client cache files need tuning. Based on typical performance statistics, how many hours is the
steady state backup expected to run?

An EMC Avamar customer is performing a file level restore (FLR) from an image backup on a
Microsoft Windows 2008 virtual machine. During the restore process, the customer cancels the
restore to change the destination folder on the target client. After cancelling the restore, the
customer attempts the restore again but they are not able to do so.
Why is the customer unable to perform the restore?

An EMC customer has accidently backed up an EMC VNX through NDMP that contained highly
classified data to an Avamar server. The data must be removed from the Avamar server in a
method that is compliant with U.S. Department of Defense standards.
What is the correct method to securely delete the backups from the Avamar server with minimal
interference to existing backups from other clients?

An EMC customer has a Celerra that has been running NDMP backups successfully for a few
months. The customer is planning to migrate a substantial amount of data to the NAS. They want
to add another Accelerator Node and move some of the volumes to the new Accelerator.
Which step should be taken to avoid having to run a Level 0 backup again?
