A customer has acquired multiple companies with a combination of IBM Tivoli Storage Manager,
EMC NetWorker, and IBM iSeries BRMS backups to physical tape in their data center. They have
a data carter 15 miles away that plan to use for disaster recovery. Dark fiber between the two sites
exists.
The customer has asked EMC to help improve their backup performance and reliability. They also
want to eliminate the need to move physical tapes offsite each day. Which recomme4ndation
satisfies the customer’s requirements?

An Avamar customer is using replication between two data centers. There is a T1 line between the
data centers and it is dedicated to Avamar replication. The customer is concerned that Avamar
replication is only getting throughput of 1.1 megabits per second during replication.
What should be changed in the design and implementation of this solution?

A Symantec Backup Exec customer purchased an EMC Disk Library (EDL) last year and performs
1.5 TB of nightly backups. Backup Exec is used to copy EDL virtual tapes to physical tapes to
satisfy offsite requirements. The daily backup and tape copying workload is becoming a challenge
for their Backup Exec server.
The customer is exploring EDL-to-EDL replication to a second a second site seven miles always to
eliminate physical tape and reduce the Backup Exec server workload. Which EDL relocation
option meets the customer’s requirements?

A data center consisting of six Microsoft Windows file servers must be backed up. Each file server
contains 750,000 files and approximately 150 GB of data. The file servers have been tested
simultaneously. Each file server can read data from the network and write it to disk at the rate of
75 GB per hour. The data center has a 10 Gigabit Ethernet backbone.
What is the minimum number of Avamar 2 TB data nodes that should be ordered to perform a
recovery of all six file servers and achieve a recovery time objective of 8 hours?

The EMC account team has been asked to design a Network backup solution for a VMware
ESX3.5 environment with the following requirements:
1. Reduce workload on the ESX server during backups
2. Eliminate backup traffic from the LAN by moving data directly from the SAN
3. Support file-level backups for virtual machines running Microsoft Windows
What is a recommended backup solution?

A customer is considering implementing an EMC Disk Library with Active Engine Failover (AEF).
Front-end ports 1, 3, and 4 from Engine A will be connected to the SAN. On Engine B, front-end
ports 7, 8, and 11 will be connected to the SAN.
To ensure proper AEF functionality, what is the total number of front-end ports from both engines
that need to be connected to the SAN?

A customer has a current EMC NetWorker LAN backup environment. The environment is using a
local EMC Disk Library (EDL) with replication to a remote disaster recovery site. They want to
introduce a four Data Mover Celerra into their environment for consolidated Windows user
collaborative data on CIFS shares.
Which backup deployment would you suggest that has the least disruptive hardware impact to the
customer’s current backup procedure?

A NetWorker customer has a single data zone with three storage nodes backing up 250 clients. A
dual-engine EMC Disk Library is being proposed as the backup-to-disk solution.
What is the minimum number of virtual tape libraries required?

You are proposing Data Protection Advisor (DPA) to provide a single reporting interface in a multi-vendor backup environment. The environment consists of IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM),

Symantec Net Backup, NetWorker, and Avamar. Each application manages 200 clients.
What needs to be considered with regards to DPA licensing?

An existing EMC NetWorker customer has recently undertaken an LDAP authentication network
infrastructure reconfiguration to ensure an improved validation response time. The reconfiguration
does not involve the addition of any physical network hardware to the infrastructure. However,
they have now approached you to assist with an increased latency they are experiencing on their
network.
What is the most likely cause of their increased latency after the reconfiguration?
