A customer has been performing VMware image level backups of a Linux virtual machine (VM) to their Avamar server. They find that they are unable to restore a file from the image backup.
What is a possible cause of this issue?
A backup administrator wants to create file system consistent backups of eligible VMs when backing up their VMware environment via the VADP interface.
Which types of VMs are eligible?
A backup administrator in a large VMware farm noticed that backups are no longer completing within the backup window. The VMware team is concerned about adding more proxies.
What is a potential solution to this problem?
A business is currently using a tape backup solution with third-party backup software and doing the off-siting for Disaster Recovery. In an effort to minimize the costs for managing IT they would like to use tapeless backups and virtualize their environment.
They have the following, additional requirements:
- Introduce data deduplication for their backup
- Faster recovery of virtual machines
- They do not want to overload their ESX hosts
- Remote offices backed up over WAN
What should you advise the customer to deploy?
A customer is using EMC Avamar to perform image-based backups of a VMware virtual machine (VM). Since the VM has a large amount of data, the backups are taking a long time. The customer decides to enable Changed Block Tracking (CBT). However, the backups are now taking even longer to complete.
