A customer has deployed a hyperconverged environment based on HPE SimpliVity at a number of their sites.
Before migrating workloads to the environment, you ask them about the backup policies in an HPE SimpliVity solution to protect the actual data.
Is this a design consideration that you should mention to your customer?
Solution:The types of applications running In the resource pools
You are working with your customer on the advantages and disadvantages of various data protection schemes They currently have a storage solution with 2 HPE 3PAR arrays with Peer Persistence This is used to make backups to an HPE StoreOnce VTL backup target using Commvauft
Will this recommendation enhance the data protection plan?
Solution:Use the Grandfather-Father-Son (GFS) rotation scheme
Your customer wants to replace an aging tape library with a new data protection solution that Improves their RTO/RPSs. Their existing platform consists of HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen10 and 8Gb FC connected Nimble Arrays.
You recommend an HPE StoreOnce appliance and Veeam software
is this a true statement?
Solution:The new HPE storeOnce appliances can be Direct-Attached lo one or the HPE ProLiant servers
As It relates to application consistent backups, does this statement accurately describe the volume Shadow copy Service (VSS)?
Solution:The use of the VSS mechanism is only possible on Windows based VM's
A customer has deployed a hyperconverged environment based on HPE Simplivity at a number of their sites.
Before migrating workloads to the environment, you ask them about the backup policies In an HPE simpliVity solution to protect the actual datais this a design consideration that you should mention to your customer?
Solution:The preference of COW (Copy-On-Write) or ROW (Redirect-On-Write) -based snapshots
As relates to mitigating ransomware, is this a best practice?
Solution:Avoid using NAS based backup targets since ransomware is primarily looking for tiles to encrypt Instead, use independent access through APIs like Catalyst or tape drives with vaulting procedures
Isthis a correct statement aboutthe integration of Veeam with HPE storage arrays and HPE StoreEver tape libraries?
Solution:The VM data cannot be copied directly to HPE StoreEver tapes, backup to tape is accomplished by replication jobs inside Veeam from existing backup repositories.
A customer contacts you for assistance with performance troubleshooting of their backup environment because over the last few days they notice Increasing times tor backup completion. They see no apparent reason for this, since the data volume to be backed up did not change unusually compared to the previous days and weeks.
You also notice that the deduplication ratio, historically steady at about 20:1. is now gradually declining
Is this a potential cause or the problem?
Solution:Ransomware is encrypting data, making the dally incremental backups grow and lowering the deduplication ratio due to new content.
The customer uses HPE infoSightwith HPE Proliant DL380 Gen10 serversand an HPE Nimble Storage array.They are replacing their aging data protection solution based on tape drives with a new disk-based backup target solution based on HPE StoreOnce
is this a true statement?
Solution:HPE intoSight provides predictive analytics for HPE StoreOnce.
You meet with a customer about a new data protection solution. One or the most important requirements is low RTO and RPO numbers. In the range of minutes.
The amount of data to be backed up is in the range of 50TB on an ISCSI based HPE Nimble array.
Is this a backup target that can validly be considered for the new solution?
Solution:Install a NAS device on the ISCSI network to enable data replication from the SAN to the NAS device by the backup application, thus allowing fast recovery over the high speed storage network
You are running a Proof-of-Concept for your customers new data protection solution based on Veeam and HPE StoreOnce VSA Gen4 The customer uses the reverse Incremental backup method with 10 restore points
Is this a recommendation you should make to your customer regarding the new environment?
Solution:HPE StoreOnce does no! support the reverse Incremental backup method.
