Question 1
SIMULATION
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.
Question 2
SIMULATION
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
As an administrator, you observe that the PowerProtect DD does not free disk space even though the backup retention period expired a month ago.
Check the cleaning schedule. Set the default parameters: Start every Tuesday at 6:00 am. Set the throttle for scheduled cleaning to 50%. After setting the schedule, start cleaning manually and make sure the system resources are not used more than 30% for this cleaning.
When you have finished, continue to the next question.
Answer : A
To resolve the issue and set up the cleaning schedule and manual cleaning on your PowerProtect DD system, follow these steps based on the information provided:
Access the Cleaning Schedule Settings:
Go to File System Settings.
Navigate to the Cleaning tab.
2. Set the Cleaning Schedule:
Frequency: Choose Weekly.
At: Set the cleaning to start every Tuesday at 6:00 AM.
Throttle: Set the throttle to 50% for scheduled cleaning.
3. Manually Start Cleaning:
After setting the schedule, initiate the cleaning manually from the File System settings.
Set the manual cleaning throttle to 30% to ensure system resources are not overused during the process.
Question 3

Task3
A system administrator is asked to configure a DD Boost storage unit for Veritas NetBackup.
Use the simulator to create netbackup_su and give access to netbackup_user.
When you have finished, continue to the next question.
Answer : A
To create a DD Boost storage unit for Veritas NetBackup and give access to a user, follow these steps:
Enable DD Boost (if not already enabled):
Navigate to Protocols in the left sidebar.
Select DD Boost and enable it if it's currently disabled.
Create a New DD Boost User:
Go to Administration or Users section (location may vary depending on the DD OS version).
Add a new user with the username netbackup_user.
Set a password and assign the necessary permissions, such as Read/Write access.
Create a Storage Unit:
Return to the DD Boost section.
Look for an option labeled Storage Units or Add Storage Unit.
Name the storage unit netbackup_su.
During the setup, ensure that netbackup_user has access to this storage unit by assigning appropriate permissions.
Save and Confirm Settings:
Save the configuration changes.
Verify that netbackup_su is listed as a storage unit and that netbackup_user has access.
After completing these steps, you should have a storage unit named netbackup_su accessible by netbackup_user, configured specifically for use with Veritas NetBackup on your PowerProtect DD system. Let me know if further clarification is needed!
Question 4
A PowerProtect system administrator would like to enable the tape out to cloud feature.
Which three requirements must be met prior to installing the tape out to cloud license? (Choose three.)
Answer : C, D, E
A cloud profile is created: Before using the tape out to cloud feature, a cloud profile must be set up to define the parameters and configurations for the cloud storage destination.
A VTL license is installed: The Virtual Tape Library (VTL) license is necessary as the tape out functionality relies on the VTL framework to manage the virtual tapes.
A Dell Cloud Tier license is installed: The Dell Cloud Tier license is essential for enabling tiering of data to cloud storage, which is a prerequisite for utilizing tape out to cloud functionality.

Question 5
What is a characteristic of the Global-Compression Factor?
Answer : A
The Global-Compression Factor quantifies how effectively the compression algorithms are reducing the size of the data stored on the system. It reflects the overall impact of compression on data size, helping administrators understand the efficiency of the compression techniques being applied.
Question 6
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.
Question 7
Which factors must be considered when determining capacity needs?
Answer : C
Data Type: Different types of data may compress and deduplicate differently, affecting how much storage is needed.
Data Size: The total size of the data that needs to be backed up is a fundamental factor in determining capacity.
Change Rate: The frequency with which data changes impacts how much new data is generated and needs to be stored.
Deduplication Rate: Understanding how effective deduplication will be is essential for estimating how much physical storage will be needed after backups are processed.
