PowerProtect DD Test Simulator
You will need to use the PowerProtect DD Simulator to correctly answer question. The simulator allows you to navigate through the PowerProtect DD interface and configure many items. You will be scored on your ability to perform tasks, configure items, and gather information within the simulated environment.
Task
Use the simulator to configure DD Boost by enabling it and creating a new user (ddboost) with the recommended permission. Use Password123 as the password. A storage unit name SU1 must be created and accessible by the user.
When you have finished, continue to the next question.
Answer : A
To configure DD Boost on the PowerProtect DD system and create the required user and storage unit, follow these steps:
Enable DD Boost:
Go to the DD System Manager.
Navigate to DD Boost Settings.
Click on Enable to activate DD Boost on the system.
2. Create the User 'ddboost':
Go to Access Management > Local Users.
Click Create to add a new user.
Set the username to ddboost and the password to Password123.
Assign the user management role (the recommended permission for DD Boost users).
Click OK to create the user.
3. Create the Storage Unit 'SU1':
Go to Storage Units in the DD Boost section.
Click Create to add a new storage unit.
Name the storage unit SU1.
Assign the ddboost user to this storage unit for access.
Set any quota limits if required, or leave them as None if no restrictions are needed.
Click Create to finalize the storage unit creation.
After completing these steps, DD Boost will be enabled, and the ddboost user with appropriate permissions will have access to the newly created storage unit SU1.
Which systems support the FS25 enclosure?
Answer : D
The FS25 enclosure is compatible with DD9900, DD6900, and DD9400, providing additional storage capacity and performance capabilities tailored for high-demand PowerProtect DD deployments.
What is the maximum number of cloud units that Cloud Tier consists of to enable multiple cloud providers per protection system?
Answer : C
In a PowerProtect DD environment, Cloud Tier allows the integration of multiple cloud providers to optimize data storage and management. By supporting up to three cloud units, administrators can leverage various cloud services for backup and storage, enhancing flexibility and resource allocation while maintaining efficient data protection strategies.
An IBM Spectrum Protect administrator would like to use the benefits of DD Boost.
Which technology will allow this integration?
Answer : C
BoostFS (Boost File System) is a DD Boost-enabled file system interface that allows applications like IBM Spectrum Protect to take advantage of DD Boost features, such as optimized deduplication, load balancing, and improved backup/restore performance. By using BoostFS, IBM Spectrum Protect can efficiently integrate with PowerProtect DD appliances to leverage DD Boost's capabilities for faster and more efficient data transfer.
Which steps make up the PowerProtect DD sanitization process?
Answer : C
The sanitization process in a PowerProtect DD system involves securely erasing data to prevent any recovery of the deleted information. The process typically follows these steps:
Analysis: Identifies the data that needs to be sanitized.
Zero: Overwrites the data with zeroes to ensure that it cannot be recovered.
Merge: Combines any leftover fragments to ensure consistency.
Cleaning: Finalizes the process by clearing residual data, making sure the storage space is ready for reuse.
This process ensures secure data deletion, maintaining data privacy and compliance with data security standards.
What is a characteristic of Dell Cloud Tier?
Answer : C
Dell Cloud Tier is designed to extend storage to cloud environments while maintaining a single namespace for management simplicity. This feature enables seamless data management across local and cloud storage tiers, preserving data accessibility and integrity.
What is the Backup Data packet flow from the NetWorker Client to the PowerProtect DD appliance?
Answer : C
In a typical NetWorker backup architecture, the data flow starts at the NetWorker Client, which sends backup data to the Media Server. The Media Server is responsible for processing the data and then forwarding it to the PowerProtect DD appliance for storage. This flow allows for efficient data handling, including deduplication and compression before the data reaches the PowerProtect DD system.
