Netbackup Processes

[Phani_Kiran]

Hi,

Yesterday I have taken a BETA exam for "DPB-024W" and I must says its a monster. It had lot of questions about Netbackup processes and I was so confused.

Does anyone know if there is any exclusive documentation about NBU Processes which can help me in taking other exams also and help me in my job hunt?

Yes, all the NetBackup processes are documented in the System Admin guide and the Media Manager System Admin Guide. In fact the Media Manager System Admin Guide also has flowcharts for processes during backups and restores also.

Hey. Thanks for the prompt reply. This will help me immensely in future.

On the same note, I am taking "DP-001W" on Monday (18th April). I have taken the sample exam and answered the questions pretty well. Does anyone know of any documentation for this SPECIFIC exam? I've sent a couple of emails to certification@veritas.com but they always pointed me to the certifications and sample exams and thats not what I am looking for.

I would appreciate if someone can point me or send me any guide for this exam - "Designing and Implementing NBU for Windows".

Thanks again

I suggest you read the article written by George Winter which is available from this VERITAS link. You will see the article at the bottom of the page titled "VERITAS NetBackup Software Performance Tuning"

Excellent Bob. Thanks so much for the info. Will go through the pdf and I hope it helps :). Keeping my fingers crossed.

Guys, if anyone is interested, Veritas is providing a free 4 hr course on "How safe is your data?". It covers details about Designing Netbackup. Anyone interested??
