You have been asked to design a new centralized backup solution for ABC.com. The customer
sent a list with the number of servers, amount of data, daily change rate, annual growth rate, and
information about the backup policy. The customer needs to satisfy their operational restore
requests as quickly as possible.
You have decided to design a backup-to-disk solution, directing all backups to disk and then
staging the data to tape after operational restore needs are satisfied. In order to define the
retention period on disk, what is an important piece of information you will need to analyze?

ABC.com has a DMX3000 at Headquarters Site X. The customer currently runs two applications
on the DMX3000, both of which need to be replicated for disaster recovery (DR) purposes. The
customer cannot tolerate any data loss. The first application needs to be replicated to Site Y,
which is 20 miles away. The second application needs to be mirrored to a different site, Site Z,
which is 15 miles away.
Which SRDF solution should you suggest?

Which SAN Distance Extension technology enables the transmission of information by tunneling
data between remote sites over IP networks?

When dealing with performance of an array, which guiding principle indicates that as utilization
increases, response time (such as how quickly an I/O is serviced by a disk) increases in a nonlinear fashion?

A customer is using SnapView snapshots for their nightly backups of a database that has several
LUNs for data and logs on a CLARiiON. The SnapView process is scripted to run on the
production host. However, the application cannot be quiesced without downtime.
How can the downtime be eliminated while still ensuring a backup that can be restarted?

You are designing an EMC ControlCenter solution for a new customer to reduce the overall

storage and management costs. The customer would like management and reporting on a variety
of hosts and storage systems. All managed objects are located in one data center.
Which factors must you consider when designing an EMC ControlCenter infrastructure?

To increase performance in a Rainfinity environment, ABC.com is interested in load balancing
traffic and increasing throughput. Which network configuration option should you recommend?

You are consulting with a large multinational bank about its backup and recovery environment.
The customer has concerns about backup performance, ease of administration, and offsite
regulatory compliance. The customer has asked for a solution to improve overall backup,
recovery, and disaster recovery performance.
The solution must require the fewest changes possible in the bank’s current processes (people
and technology). In addition, the solution must ensure that backup clones are sent to the offsite
location as soon as the backup completes.
Which solution best satisfies the bank’s requirements?

ABC.com wants to migrate from a Symmetrix 8000 to a DMX so that they can use RAID 5 BCVs

addresses the customer’s requirements?

You work as an administrator at ABC.com. You study the exhibit carefully.
Exhibit:

When identifying risk domains, areas of high risk may require more stringent security controls for
data at a given level of security classification. Based on the exhibit, which risk domain is identified
by the area labeled #4?
