Question 1

SIMULATION

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, enable it, create a new user, and set up a storage unit in the DD System Manager, follow these steps:

Enable DD Boost:

In the Protocols section on the left sidebar, locate DD Boost and click on it.

Inside the DD Boost settings, find the option to enable DD Boost if it's currently disabled.

Create a New User:

Go to Administration or Users (location varies based on version).

Select Add User or New User.

Set the username as ddboost and the password as Password123.

Assign the appropriate permissions, typically Admin or Read/Write access, based on best practice recommendations for DD Boost users.

Create a Storage Unit:

Return to the DD Boost section.

Look for an option labeled Storage Units or similar, and choose Add Storage Unit.

Name the storage unit SU1.

Ensure that the newly created ddboost user has access to this storage unit.

Save and Confirm:

After configuring, save all settings and confirm the changes.

Verify that DD Boost is enabled, the user ddboost exists with the specified permissions, and the storage unit SU1 is created and accessible by this user.

This completes the setup for DD Boost with a new user and storage unit on PowerProtect DD. Let me know if you need more assistance with any of these steps.


Question 2

SIMULATION

Task

Use the simulator to schedule PowerProtect DD space reclamation to occur every Monday at 4:00

AM without impacting system resources for more than 25%.

When you have finished, continue to the next question.



Answer : A

To schedule space reclamation on a PowerProtect DD system as specified, here's the general procedure to follow in the DD System Manager:

Log into DD System Manager: Access the management interface for your PowerProtect DD system.

Navigate to Data Management: In the sidebar, look for an option labeled Data Management or similar (may vary slightly depending on the exact DD OS version).

Select Space Reclamation: Within Data Management, find and select Space Reclamation settings.

Set Schedule:

Click on Schedule and choose to add a new schedule if not already present.

Set the Day to Monday.

Set the Time to 4:00 AM.

Configure Resource Limit:

Look for an option to limit the resource usage for the reclamation task.

Set the Maximum System Resource Usage (or a similarly named option) to 25% to avoid impacting the system performance excessively.

Save the Schedule: Confirm and save your settings.

Verify the Schedule: Check that the schedule appears correctly in the list, indicating it will run every Monday at 4:00 AM with the specified resource usage limit.

After completing these steps, the PowerProtect DD system should reclaim space as scheduled without exceeding 25% resource usage, minimizing its impact on other system operations.


Question 3

An administrator has a PowerProtect DD appliance with 32 CPU Cores and 128 GB RAM and 3 GB NVRAM.

What is the maximum number of drives that they can configure with one VTL?



Answer : B

PowerProtect DD appliances have specific scalability limits based on their hardware configuration. In this case, with the mentioned resources, the appliance can support a maximum of 540 drives in a single VTL configuration. This allows for extensive virtual tape storage capabilities, enhancing backup and recovery efficiency.


Question 4

How are the slots identified on a PowerProtect DD DS60 storage shelf?



Answer : A

In the DS60 storage shelf, slots are organized into columns and rows for easy identification. The columns are numbered from 0 to 9, indicating 10 slots in total, while the rows are labeled from A to F, indicating 6 rows. This identification scheme helps administrators manage and organize the physical components of the storage system effectively.


Question 5

A PowerProtect DD Administrator issues the nfs show clients command, what is expected output?



Answer : D

The nfs show clients command provides a list of clients that have access to the NFS (Network File System) shares exported by the PowerProtect DD appliance. This information is crucial for administrators to monitor and manage NFS client connections, ensuring proper access and resource allocation.


Question 6

A Dell Technologies customer has multiple PowerProtect DD systems in a single Data Center. They must consolidate the systems into a single federated namespace so they can all be managed as a single entity.

Which feature can be configured so the customer does not have to manually reconfigure their backup software when a system is nearing full capacity?



Answer : C

DD Namespace Redirection allows for the consolidation of multiple PowerProtect DD systems into a single federated namespace. This feature enables automatic redirection of backup data to different systems based on capacity thresholds, ensuring that the backup software does not require manual reconfiguration when one system approaches full capacity. This simplifies management and optimizes resource utilization across the DD systems in the data center.


Question 7

An administrator is scaling Cloud Tier for a DD6900 to add a second cloud unit.

What is the required amount of metadata storage (TB)?



Answer : B

When adding a second cloud unit to a DD6900, the system requires additional metadata storage to manage the data being tiered to the cloud. In this case, 180 TB of metadata storage is necessary to support the scaling of Cloud Tier and ensure efficient data management across multiple cloud units.
