Celerra NDMP Backup Solutions (NSNDMPBACK)

This course is intended for anyone that works with the design and/or implementation of EMC NetWorker NDMP solutions with EMC NAS systems.

To understand the content and successfully complete this course, a student must have a suitable knowledgebase/skill set, including an understanding of:

• EMC NetWorker administration and functionality
• In-depth administration knowledge of MS Windows and Linux
• DNS implementation
• Joining servers to Microsoft domains
• User authentication in both Linux and MS Windows environments
• Basic understanding of virtual tape libraries and backup to disk concepts
• Advanced Celerra administration skills

A list of specific prerequisite courses can be found in EMC Education Services Learning Management System.

This course leads the student through a hands-on exercise in the configuration, implementation, and execution of Network Data Management Protocol (NDMP) backup and restore of EMC NAS systems, using EMC NetWorker and an EMC Disk Library (EDL). It also introduces the Celerra Virtual Tape Library (VTL) feature. This course currently supports DART 5.6.

Upon successful completion of this course, participants should be able to:

• Configure EMC NAS systems for NDMP backup participation using both a local and a three-way implementation
• Configure an EMC Disk Library (EDL) to be the target for an EMC NAS system backup
• Configure and use the Celerra Virtual Tape Library (VTL) feature for EMC NAS system backup
• Backup and restore file systems and individual files on an EMC NAS system using EMC NetWorker
