A customer is planning a new database rollout using Oracle and wants to perform online
backups. Initial tests with NetWorker have shown that the backups cannot be completed
within the backup window of 6 hours. You have analyzed your backup environment and
there are adequate resources to meet this stringent backup window. What is one of the first
things to check in NetWorker or RMAN to increase performance without adding cost and
complexity?

A customer with an existing VMware infrastructure is interested in Avamar as a potential
backup solution. The customer needs to back up 10 virtual machines with a total of 2.9 TB
of data. The daily change rate is 6 GB per day. Which solution would you recommend?

A customer has requested assistance with several backup and recovery challenges. You
use the EMC backup scripts to perform the data collection. Which type of data is collected
using the backup quick scripts?

A customer has Oracle 9i running on a Microsoft Windows server. They want to deploy hot
backups because the database cannot be shut down. What is a design consideration for
backups when using the Avamar plug-in for Oracle?

An EMC Avamar customer wants to start backing up their VMware environment. The
customer’s goal is to have image-level backup while having a low impact on the ESX server.
In addition, they want the ability to perform file-level restores of their Microsoft Windows
clients. Which backup method will meet the customer’s needs?

A single-engine EMC Disk Library (EDL) is being proposed with Remote Copy functionality
replicate data to a remote EDL. One of the EDLs will have four network connections while
the other one will have two network connections. How many ports will be used in each EDL
during a replication session?

A customer has acquired multiple companies with a combination of IBM Tivoli Storage
Manager, EMC NetWorker, and IBM iSeries BRMS backups to physical tape in their data
center. They have a data carter 15 miles away that plan to use for disaster recovery. Dark
fiber between the two sites exists. The customer has asked EMC to help improve their
backup performance and reliability. They also want to eliminate the need to move physical
tapes offsite each day. Which recomme4ndation satisfies the customer’s requirements?

An Avamar customer is using replication between two data centers. There is a T1 line
between the data centers and it is dedicated to Avamar replication. The customer is
concerned that Avamar replication is only getting throughput of 1.1 megabits per second
during replication. What should be changed in the design and implementation of this
solution?

A Symantec Backup Exec customer purchased an EMC Disk Library (EDL) last year and
performs 1.5 TB of nightly backups. Backup Exec is used to copy EDL virtual tapes to

physical tapes to satisfy offsite requirements. The daily backup and tape copying workload
is becoming a challenge for their Backup Exec server. The customer is exploring
EDL-to-EDL replication to a second a second site seven miles always to eliminate physical
tape and reduce the Backup Exec server workload. Which EDL relocation option meets the
customer’s requirements?

A data center consisting of six Microsoft Windows file servers must be backed up. Each file
server contains 750,000 files and approximately 150 GB of data. The file servers have been
tested simultaneously. Each file server can read data from the network and write it to disk at
the rate of 75 GB per hour. The data center has a 10 Gigabit Ethernet backbone. What is
the minimum number of Avamar 2 TB data nodes that should be ordered to perform a
recovery of all six file servers and achieve a recovery time objective of 8 hours?
