An EMC NetWorker customer performs daily full LAN backups of a busy application server to physical tape. The application server uses the compressasm directive to reduce LAN backup traffic. While the backup completes within the required backup window, the customer notices that the application is performing poorly. What can be done to improve application performance while maintaining minimum network traffic?
3.
In an EMC NetWorker environment, a firewall is configured to allow communication over ports 9000 and 9001 from the DMZ. The NetWorker Management Console can be accessed from the DMZ but database queries cannot be performed. Which port needs to be opened on the firewall?
4.
Based on EMC best practices, when sizing a NetWorker storage node, how many CPU MHz are recommended for each MB/s of data backed up?
5.
A customer uses EMC NetWorker with a deduplication node. The deduplication node is physically located in a remote office connected by a slow link. The customer is using an AFTD to store the save set containing the deduplicated backup metadata. What is the NetWorker behavior if the deduplication node is unavailable?

An EMC NetWorker customer is considering backup options for their VMware environment. What is an advantage of using the VMware Console Backup option?
7.
An EMC customer has been using NetWorker backup and has recently added an Avamar system for file system backups. The customer wants to move all backups to the Avamar system to take advantage of deduplication. They are currently backing up Sybase and SAP with NetWorker. What is your recommendation to meet these requirements?

An EMC NetWorker customer has been using an EMC Disk Library (EDL) for over 4 years. The EDL has reached its capacity limits. The customer is in the process of virtualizing as many physical servers as possible to reclaim data center floor space. They are backing up numerous 8 TB databases. The customer is interested in replacing the EDL. The replacement must maintain a single point of backup administration and reduce backup times for their growing virtualized environment. What is the recommended solution?
