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?

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?
