A large EMC NetWorker customer is gathering installation requirements for a new
NetWorker installation. Based on best practices, where should the NetWorker indexes be
located to provide the most flexibility?

A customer has been using lz Local Compression when backing up their data to an EMC
Data Domain system. An audit of their storage content shows that they can effectively use
gz compression for their data. What should be considered before changing the Local
Compression type?

You are designing a Data Protection Advisor (DPA) solution to support an environment
consisting of: What are the appropriate DPA licensing requirements?

A Symantec NetBackup customer is planning to add a second data center. They would like
to leverage deduplication technology to improve backup operations and disaster recovery
with a minimum amount of change to their existing backup environment. The customer’s
primary design goals are: 1. Improve backup performance 2. Electronic vaulting for disaster
recovery 3. Maintain NetBackup as their primary tool for backup control and visibility What
should be included with a high-end Data Domain appliance?

Refer to the Exhibit. A large mining company wants to implement replication using EMC
Data Domain systems in multiple cities. How should the customer’s design requirements be
addressed?

Refer to Scenario. An enterprise customer would like to better address business continuity
at all branch offices. Their corporate data center resides in Chicago, Illinois and they would
like all branch office data centers to use Chicago as the destination for replicating backups.
Each branch office has a mixture of databases, e-mail, and other data that need full
backups on Friday evenings and daily incremental backups. Based on their new Chief
Technology Officer’s experience with deduplication, they are installing EMC Data Domain
devices at all sites to take advantage of the lower bandwidth requirements for backup
replications. The backup requirements for the branch offices are: – New York, Denver, and
Houston = 100 GB full, 20% daily incremental. – SCO, Seattle, and Kansas City = 20 GB
full, 20% dairy incremental. The backup window for all branch offices is 15 hours on Friday
evenings. What is the throughput required between Seattle and Chicago to enable these
replications?

Refer to Scenario . The Chief Technical Officer (CTO) of a large company has directed their
IT management staff to examine corporate wide operations and find ways to limit the cost of
operations. The corporate directives have prompted adoption of company policies that
include the use of virilization for all new servers and as many services as possible. The
company is subject to government regulations concerning data retention policies for

confidential data. Data has to be retained for seven years. An audit of the backup and
recovery environment is performed. The exhibit shows a typical site and how it is connected
to the disaster recovery environment. Data in the primary site is configured on VMAX
storage using FAST-VP to support multiple work load types on a single storage array. Data
is protected by SRDF/A to a remote VMAX which acts as a target for multiple sites. The
remote copy of the data is snapped and copied to tape. Retention is accomplished to
governmental standards by offsite storage of tape in a remote protected facility. The
company has noted that it has the following requirements in any proposed architecture for
the backup and recovery environment: To satisfy the stated requirements, the customer
wants to use a virtual appliance to limit power and space consumption in their smaller
locations. To replace the current SRDF/A replication model, which EMC technology should
be recommended?

required by their Service Level Agreement to their major clients. If they want to limit TCO,
which EMC solution should be proposed?
