Question1: Backup images that reside in an MSDP storage pool have been manually expired using bpexpdate.
Which step must an administrator perform to manually free the associated space in the storage pool?

Question2: An administrator is preparing to perform disaster recovery for many clients whose backups are stored on
multiplexed tapes.
Which host property should the administrator modify, prior to the restores, to ensure the best recovery
time?

Question3: Refer to the exhibit.
Two media servers, sharing a library with 6 tape drives, exist in the NetBackup environment displayed in
the exhibit. Both weekly full and daily differential incremental backups need to run for the clients and each
schedule has a different retention period. Because of network topology, some clients back up to Media
server 1 and some back up to Media server 2. The environment suffers from multiple status 96 failures
during the backup window.
How can the administrator minimize the number of failures?

Question4: An administrator has a scheduled policy that backs up 20 clients, each with multiple mount points and
multiple data streams enabled. One of the jobs has failed and is in an Incomplete state in the Activity
Monitor.
How should the administrator verify the incomplete job runs prior to the next scheduled backup?

Question5: Storage lifecycle policy SLP1 is used to perform a backup and duplication. The backup is always a small,
100MB backup. The master server host properties for SLP Parameters are set to the default values.
How can the administrator ensure the duplications run as soon as possible after the backup completes?

Question6: An administrator has a backup for client Linux1 using the LinuxClients policy complete successfully. Even
though the policy Backup Selections are NOT modified, the backup job fails the next day with the following

Question7: Which command should an administrator use to generate a list of all files backed up on a client for a
specific backup job?

during the evening. The administrator would like to view all related jobs to verify they completed
successfully.

Console on the master server? (Select two.)

Question44: A Windows policy protects over 100 servers using the directive ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES. The backup
window for this policy is a two-hour window that is unused by any other policy. When the jobs run, each
server has no more than ten paths, and the overall performance of the disk storage unit is degraded.
