An EMC NetWorker customer has been using an EMC Disk Library (EDL) for over four
years. The EDL has reached its capacity limits. The customer is in the process of
virtualizing as many physical servers as possible to reclaim data center floor space. They
are backing up numerous 8 TB databases. The customer is interested in replacing the EDL
and is concerned about the amount of backup traffic over the network. The replacement
must maintain a single point of backup administration and reduce backup times for their
growing virtualized environment. What is the recommended solution?

During final design conversations with an EMC Avamar customer, they indicate that they
have certain data that needs to be carefully secured during transit. This data is typically
transferred at different times and in different groups. Which type of encryption would
address the customer’s concern?

Refer to the Exhibit. A customer is planning to have a disaster recovery solution for their
backup environment. As part of Phase 1, they want a replica for their EMC Data Domain
system. Due to some budget restrictions, they need to have a low investment solution. What
is the recommended minimum configuration needed for the replica?

An existing EMC NetWorker customer has been backing up their VMware environment
using VMDKs to a CIFS-attached EMC Data Domain system. Recently, they have added
another 80 TB to their primary VM storage. While their deduplication rates have exceeded
expectations, they are starting to overrun their backup window. Which solution compliments
their existing infrastructure?

An EMC Avamar customer is in the testing phase of their new solution. They have backed
up several clients and are now doing some restore tests. They have found that the restore
time is not consistent. The restore time decreases if more than one attempt at the same
restore is performed. Why is the customer seeing these results?

A new EMC Avamar customer wants advice on setting up their groups and schedules. They
are migrating from a traditional tape backup solution with a mixed retention policy. Both
Microsoft Windows and Solaris clients will be backed up. What follows EMC best practices
for setting up groups and policies?

An EMC NetWorker customer is backing up all clients using EMC Avamar deduplication.
They have a requirement for backup redundancy for disaster recovery. What is
recommended to provide this protection?

A customer wants to improve the performance of their EMC Data Domain system. After
checking their weekly reports, they notice that on the same day each week, file system
performance is impacted. At first the customer thought the performance issue was caused
by full backups that run on Friday. However, the performance issue is occurring on
Tuesday. What is a possible reason for this behavior?

An existing EMC NetWorker customer is evaluating options for upgrades within their backup

solution. The customer is interested in replacing their current tape-based infrastructure with
a backup-to-disk product. The customer currently uses EMC VNX arrays for their SAN
storage. The solution needs the ability to retain certain backups for long periods of time due
to compliance reasons as well as minimize the amount of power and rack space required. In
addition, all backups must go offsite on a daily basis. Finally, the customer wants the ability
to use a new 10 GigE infrastructure they are planning to deploy within their data center.
They want to minimize the amount of disruption to their current daily procedures in order to
avoid re-training existing staff. Which storage solution can be integrated with NetWorker to
satisfy these requirements?

An EMC NetWorker customer is considering backup options for their VMware environment.
The environment consists of Microsoft Windows file servers an Oracle database server
running on Solaris. What is an advantage of using the VMware image backup operation?
