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 San Francisco branch office has an existing VTL
infrastructure. Which type of replication is recommended for their backups?

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?

Which technology should be used to replace replication SRDF?

Refer to Scenario . A customer is looking to modernize their backup infrastructure. The
current environment consists of a single centralized data center and several remote sites.
The centralized data center hosts all core services and applications. The remote office
primarily consists of sales personnel with 4000 use-North America, 500 in Europe, and 300
in Asia using file servers. The current backup environment at the primary site uses
CommVault backing up to a Fibre Channel tape library that contains four ITO-4 tape drives.
Currently they are backing up a number of file servers as well as several databases that
have average change rates of 7% daily Remote office backups are currently performed by
having users copy files to regional file servers that are then backed up to tape. In the past
few months, the customer has experienced problems with getting backups to finish within
their defined windows as well as issues with the tape library hardware. They now have
concerns about gaps in their backup coverage as well as the reliability of the tape media. In
addition, an internal audit shows a large amount of user-generated data is unprotected on
remote user laptops. The customer is looking for a common platform to standardize their
backups. They want a solution which allows for a centralized infrastructure so -they do not
need to rely on remote resources to address hardware and software issues. The other goal
is to move away from tape to a more reliable disk-based solution. The customer is
impressed by the performance of Avamar file system backups. However, they have
concerns about its ability to handle the backups of their databases. Which solution should
be recommended?
