Which VMware backup method will provide the most optimized capacity?
An EMC customer wants to implement a backup solution for their virtual machines. They are
interested in Avamar deduplication features. In addition, they want to minimize the backup
capacity required. Their ESX environment is running optimally with sufficient resources.
Which VMware backup method will provide the most optimized capacity?
which prefix should the backup file contain?
A customer wants to protect their DB2 databases with EMC Avamar. You have configured and
validated successful completion of both hot and cold database backups. You now need to validate
that you can restore from the cold database backups. To recover after shutting down the
database, which prefix should the backup file contain?
Which restore method should be used?
An EMC Avamar customer has a requirement to backup SQL databases with multiple filegroups.
As a test of data recovery procedures, the backups need to be restored to a different server.
Which restore method should be used?
What is an expected outcome of this configuration?
A new EMC Avamar customer is planning to have a multi-node Avamar server replicate to an
offsite multi-node Avamar server. Because their data is extremely sensitive, they are concerned
about the security of the backup environment.
The customer is planning to encrypt all network transmissions. They also want to use encryptionat-rest on the primary Avamar backup server to provide an additional level of data security for their
stored backup data. What is an expected outcome of this configuration?
Which option is available to backup the clients?
An EMC Avamar customer has three clients running Microsoft SQL that require the data be
encrypted while transmitting over the network. The backup environment includes Avamar
integrated with a Data Domain. The customer wants to maximize backup performance.
Which option is available to backup the clients?
What can be done to ensure the data is recovered from the replication target?
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?
Which initial p_cache and f_cache settings will maximize performance when using the Data Domain client?
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?
What is a potential reason for this behavior?
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?
what is recommended for this environment?
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?
What is the probable cause of the failure?
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?
