can provide the security benefit of data encryption between the clients and the Avamar server.
What are the “in-flight encryption” considerations?
What is considered the most suitable approach to meet these requirements?
An EMC Avamar customer has a heavily utilized ESX system where CPU utilization is a concern.
Each guest system, all of which are Linux, must be backed up with file granularity. The customer
has both Avamar and NetWorker available and is looking to EMC for guidance
What is considered the most suitable approach to meet these requirements?
which key encryption-at-rest factor(s) should be considered?
A customer wants to deploy encryption-at-rest for Avamar. When sizing a new solution, which key
encryption-at-rest factor(s) should be considered?
What is the minimum number of 2 TB data nodes needed to satisfy this requirement?
A potential Avamar customer has 4 TB of data to back up, which is spread across many clients. All
clients are in the same data center as the Avamar server with Gigabit Ethernet connecting all
hosts.
The customer has a requirement to perform their initial backups within 80 hours. What is the
minimum number of 2 TB data nodes needed to satisfy this requirement?
Where will the Avamar client and the Avamar VCB Interoperability Module be installed?
A customer wants to back up VMware using Avamar to leverage deduplication. They have been
and want to continue performing VCB backups.
