EMC EMC Certifications E20-895 Questions & Answers

  • Question 181:

    A customer has a EMC Avamar desktop/laptop environment consisting of 100 clients distributed across three Avamar domains. Compliance requirements mandate that 15 clients with 2 TBs of data on each must have their backups written to

    tape. Avamar Data Transport (ADT) with three 2 TB transport nodes will be used to accomplish the tapeout process.

    Which changes are required to accommodate this environment?

    A. Configure each of the clients in their own dedicated domain

    B. Configure a dedicated transport node per Avamar domain

    C. Configure a dedicated transport node, each containing five of the clients

    D. Configure three domains, each containing five of the clients

  • Question 182:

    A customer has four EMC Avamar servers located in a centralized disaster recovery site, each receiving replicated data from several remote sites. Several client backups are in the range of 1 - 4 TBs per dataset with file counts of 2 - 4 million files. Due to capacity limitations, Avamar retention value is limited to two months and tapeout is being used to provide extended retention of up to five years.

    The nature of the customer's business requires frequent lookups of historical data, often beyond the Avamar 2-month retention period. Therefore, quick recovery of files from tape is required. Compliance requirements mandate tapeout be performed on a weekly basis. The customer is considering Avamar Data Transport (ADT) or Avamar Tape Out (ATO).

    Which tapeout solution is best suited for this environment?

    A. ADT for its file level recovery capabilities from tape and its ability to process several TBs per day

    B. ATO due to its file level recovery capabilities from tape and its ability to process several TBs per day

    C. ADT due to its ability to write deduplicated data to tape and its ability to process several TBs per day

    D. ATO due to its ability to write deduplicated data to tape and its ability to process several TBs per day

  • Question 183:

    An EMC Avamar customer notices that a client's Progress Bytes and percentage NewBytes are not being reported on the Activity Monitor while a backup is in progress. The backup reports "Completed with Exception(s)" when finished. What is a possible cause for this issue?

    A. cid.bin file is missing on the backup client

    B. ascd is not running on the Avamar server

    C. avtar.cmd has been deleted on the backup client

    D. Dispatcher table file is missing on the Avamar server

  • Question 184:

    A customer has a 1 TB Oracle 10g database on a HP-UX 11.31 client. They have created two groups that run once every 24 hours. One group is for backing up the database; the other group is for backing up the file system. During the course of a week, the customer notices that the client is taking up twice the space as expected. What is a probable cause?

    A. Client is being backed up twice

    B. DBF files are not excluded in the file system dataset

    C. Group that backs up the database is being run twice a day

    D. Block Change Tracking is not being used

  • Question 185:

    A customer wants to maximize their tapeout throughput with Avamar Tapeout (ATO) by using concurrent staging servers. The servers consist of one Microsoft Windows-based and one UNIX-based.

    The customer configured environment file #1 with the appropriate staging server variables for each server type involved. Two ATO batch profiles were configured for environment #1 with the appropriate staging server types. The batch jobs were started concurrently.

    What is the expected outcome?

    A. Tapeout fails because concurrent tapeout activities are not supported with a single environment file

    B. Tapeout throughput is double that of using a single staging server

    C. Tapeout fails because a single environment file cannot be configured for two staging server types

    D. Tapeout succeeds because two batch profiles can access a single environment file concurrently

  • Question 186:

    An EMC customer is protecting 3000 virtual machines (VMs) with guest level backup. All VMs reside on the same ESX server. The administrators are concerned with the CPU spike during backups since Avamar is trying to initiate as many

    backups as possible.

    What is the best practice for preventing this spike in CPU on the ESX server host?

    A. Use network throttling parameters in the advanced options tab of the dataset

    B. Break the VMs up into multiple groups that run at different times

    C. Use the Backup Priority attribute in the Group settings

    D. Migrate some of the VMs to another ESX host

  • Question 187:

    An EMC Avamar customer has noticed that their NetWorker deduplication node is 90% full. They want to delete all backups older than 60 days. What is the correct process flow for deleting deduplication backups in NetWorker?

    A. 1. Backup is marked for deletion by the NetWorker server on the deduplication node.

    2. Backup is purged from metadata on the storage node.

    3. NetWorker server performs cleanup on the deduplication node.

    B. 1. Backup is purged from metadata on the storage node.

    2. Backup is marked for deletion by the NetWorker server on the deduplication node.

    3. NetWorker server performs cleanup on the deduplication node.

    C. 1. Backup is marked as recyclable in NetWorker.

    2. Manually run nsrmm

  • Question 188:

    An EMC customer has purchased a new Accelerator Node for their NDMP backups. During the configuration process, you receive an error that there is an authentication error. You discover that the 'ndmp user' is not created. Which command is used to create the user account?

    A. server_user server_2 -add -md5 ndmp

    B. server_user server_all -add -password ndmp

    C. server_user --server_2 -create ndmp -password ndmp

    D. server_user server_2 --create ndmp

  • Question 189:

    Click on the calculator icon in the upper left corner.

    An EMC Avamar customer has an Avamar server with four 3.9 TB nodes. They are planning to add two new clients to backup to this server. Both clients will be in the same group. The first client has 6 GB of RAM and will be backing up one 500 GB database. The second client has 12 GB of RAM and a file system with 3 million files consuming 1.2 TB of space.

    The customer wants to establish a benchmark for the backups. Based on typical performance statistics, how many hours is the steady state backup group expected to run?

    A. 3

    B. 5

    C. 9

    D. 12

  • Question 190:

    An EMC Avamar customer has a two-node Microsoft SQL 2008 cluster with one instance of Microsoft SQL. To ensure successful backups of the SQL database, what is the order for installation?

    A. Install the Avamar Windows client and Avamar SQL client on both nodes in the cluster. Configure the Avamar Cluster Client on the active node in the cluster.

    B. Install the Avamar Windows client and Avamar SQL client on both nodes in the cluster. Create AvamarBackupUser and configure the Avamar Cluster Client on both nodes in the cluster.

    C. Install Avamar Windows client on both nodes. Install the Avamar SQL client on the active node in the cluster.

    D. Install the Avamar Windows client and Avamar SQL client on both nodes in the cluster.

    Configure the Avamar Cluster Client on both nodes in the cluster.
