Administration of Veritas NetBackup 8.1.2: VCS-278

In the case of a NetBackup appliance, which of the following is true of the storage server?

A. It must be a separate NetBackup media server.

B. It is the system with the NetBackup plug-in installed.

C. It must be the NetBackup Master server.

D. It is the NetBackup appliance.

An administrator creates a Storage Lifecycle Policy (SLP) to take advantage of optimized duplication. The backup and subsequent duplication jobs launch as configured in the SLP.

What may cause the secondary duplication job to run as non-optimized?

A. Optimized duplication requires the media servers to be configured as Fibre Transport media servers.

B. Optimized duplication is unsupported when a storage unit group is the target of the duplication.

C. Both compression and encryption attributes are disabled in the backup policy.

D. Both source and destination storage servers have only one media server in common.

Refer to the exhibit.

Two media servers, sharing a library with 6 tape drives, exist in the NetBackup environment displayed in the exhibit. Both weekly Full and daily Differential Incremental backups need to run for the clients and each schedule has a different retention period. Because of network topology, some clients back up to Media server 1 and some back up to Media server 2. The environment suffers from multiple status 96 failures during the backup window.

How can the administrator minimize the number of failures?

A. increase the "Media unmount delay"

B. configure media multiplexing

C. enable backups to span tape media

D. enable media sharing
