What is a recommended maximum number of data nodes for an initial Avamar server configuration?

A. 7

B. 8

You are performing a Data Deduplication Assessment for a customer. Which tool is used to test and tune network connections?

A. iperf

B. DDA:A

C. DDA:B

D. DPA

A customer is currently using EMC Data Protection Advisor (DPA) 5.8 SP1. They want to upgrade to DPA

6.0 and retain their data and configuration information. What does the customer need to understand about the upgrade?

A. Analysis rules and datamine maintenance plans cannot be migrated

B. DPA migration tool will perform the upgrade

C. All data and configuration information will be migrated using the DPA migration tool

D. DPA 5.8 services will be stopped during the migration

A customer who is using a third-party product wants to move to an enterprise product with the following

requirements:

Less than 100 clients but three clients have a dense file system with over 4 million files. Requirements

dictate backups go to tape for storage at the disaster recovery site weekly.

Reduce the backup time of dense clients.

Which EMC products will address the requirements and proposed design?

A. NetWorker with two DSNs and Data Domain as DD Boost devices

B. NetWorker with two DD Boost devices and Data Domain

C. Data Domain, Replication Manager, and Avamar Extended Retention

D. Avamar, AVE at the remote offices, and Avamar Extended Retention

Scenario

A customer with a fully virtualized environment has four ESX 4.1 servers in a cluster with a SAN solution for storage. Each ESX server is hosting 40 virtual machines and all virtual machines have the same local disk configurations:

Disk1 = 50 GB Disk2 = 100 GB Disk3 = 256 GB

In addition, the environment includes a NAS filer. The average time to fully backup all virtual machines on one ESX server using EMC DD Boost is three hours.

The customer is interested in implementing an EMC NetWorker solution with Data Domain as a backup device. The backup server, storage nodes, and proxies are SAN-attached.

Refer to Scenario .

When using VADP backups with EMC NetWorker, which transport mode is recommended for virtual machines with IDE virtual disks?

A. NBD

B. Hotadd

C. SAN

D. RDM

You are designing an EMC Data Protection Advisor (DPA) solution for a large NetWorker customer using both DPA clustering and replication. What is a consideration when determining the server layout for

application and datastore servers in this virtual environment?

A. Install the master and slave datastores on different physical hosts

B. Implement the master application and datastore servers on the same virtual host

C. Connect a DPA datastore to each cluster VLAN in the solution

D. Configure a spare server to have both standby datastore and application roles

A customer wants to know why their backup performance to an EMC Avamar multi-node server has decreased. Initially they were seeing an ingest rate of approximately 5 to 7 GB/hr/node. Recently they estimated that the ingest rate has slowed to around 3 to 5 GB/hr/node.

What is a probable cause for the decrease in the average ingest rate?

A. Stripes contain more data, and steady state has been achieved.

B. HFS check has found errors and has not been completing successfully.

C. A large number of backups have expired, causing new stripes to be created.

D. Garbage collection is not running, causing new stripes to be created.
