An EMC customer has received a warning indicating that their Avamar server has crossed the
80% capacity threshold. Backups are completing within the backup window and there have been
no recent increases in the client change rates. Maintenance processes are running successfully
and garbage collection is freeing up space at its expected rate.
What is the best course of action to take at this time?

An EMC Avamar customer has a large virtual machine (VM) with a small backup window
available. On the weekends, there is a larger backup window available. Most of the files on the VM
do not change daily but the few that do change are critical.
How can the customer protect the critical files every day without exceeding the daily backup
window while still meeting their SLAs to protect the entire VM image?

A current EMC Avamar customer is having trouble completing replication on a nightly basis. The
customer’s networking team sees that Avamar is only utilizing about 40% of the available
bandwidth on their 45 Mb WAN link. The latency or round trip time on the WAN link is 78 ms. The
customer would like to tune Avamar replication to use more of the available bandwidth
What is the Bandwidth Delay Product for this link?

An EMC Avamar customer has a two-node Microsoft Exchange 2003 cluster with one instance of
Microsoft Exchange. They are backing up the storage groups only. To ensure successful backups
of the Exchange data, what is the order for installation?

You are adding a deduplication node to a customer’s EMC NetWorker environment. The
NetWorker clients currently back up to tape and perform full backups on Sunday and incremental
backups on the other days of the week. In the new solution, all clients will back up to the
deduplication node. The speed of recovery and higher deduplication rates are important to the
customer. Which NetWorker schedule is recommended?

An EMC Avamar customer has a backup that is running longer than expected. EMC Support is
asking for more logging information from the client. What is the recommended method for

providing this information?

A customer has a client server backing up to an EMC Avamar system and backups are running
longer than expected. The client server has 1 GB of RAM and is backing up 5 million files. The
Avamar backup dataset has been created with default option settings.
The customer is looking for a way to make this backup run faster. However, they cannot currently
implement any changes that would require downtime on the client.
Which action should the customer take to improve backup performance?

A customer has purchased a backup solution consisting of an EMC Avamar server with Data
Domain integration to support Microsoft Exchange VSS backups. Test databases were created for
the purposes of confirming end-to-end functionality. The test database backups, using the
Exchange VSS plug-in, complete successfully but they are being stored on the Avamar server
instead of being sent directly to the Data Domain system.

What is the most probable cause of this behavior?

A customer wants to protect their DB2 databases with EMC Avamar. You have configured some
test databases and have performed several successful backups of various types. They would now
like to restore the databases to complete their testing.
In order to restore from an online backup with archive logs, which prefix should they look for when
choosing a backup file?
