* * Slide Objective: To explain synchronization with consistency checks for DPMv2. Instructor Notes: Synchronization with Consistency Check is a safety net so you we can find out about bad data before recovery. It only occurs: When something bad happens on DPM or the production server. If you schedule it. In the event of a “dirty” shutdown (i.e. server crash on the DPM or Exchange server) where the job was not completed, a resync is required. A consistency check of the data on the DPM server the source Exchange server will be kicked off before the backup continues. The consistency check is not an Exchange consistency check but DPM specific. This is to ensure that the backup is checked after the “dirty” shutdown and not at the time when a recovery is needed. * * Slide Objective: Explain recovery with DPMv2. Instructor Notes: Recovery is reversed process where we move the replica back to the production server. Recovery is application integrated (i.e. Exchange handles the replay and database mounting) * * Slide Objective: To explain archival with DPMv2. Instructor Notes: Archival to Tape is performed in Microsoft tape format which is compatible with NTBackup. This can be in multiple form. ?D-D-T or D-T (directly from production server). Redundancy and checks are built into the product such as a tape going bad…DPM will mount a new tape, clean it and continue to write where the tape went bad. ? We can saturate LTO3 and are currently testing with LTO45. * Slide Objective: To explain backup and recovery with DPMv2 Instructor Notes: You can back up at the storage group level. You can restore storage group, database, and mailbox. You can synchronize block changes every 15 minutes * Slide Objective: Review the advantages of DPMv2 Instructor Notes: All of these features are new to DPMv2: Efficient and Fast Backup – DPM volume filter based approach allows optimized full backups to be done very fast More Recovery Points – synchronize data every 15 minutes enabling
