Improved back-up performance • Reduce backup times by up to 50% Improved network performance • Reduce network traffic by up to 99% • Enhanced deduplication optimized for virtual Improved data optimization environments • 4.6x better deduplication than nearest competition • Reduce storage requirements with industry leadingdeduplication • Reduce backup storage by an average of 36x • Gain industry leading speed, scalability, and reliability • Natively tier deduped data to the cloud for 6 long-term retention XC DPMC (Data Protection Management Console)

• The Dell EMC XC Series is now part of a mature ecosystem that includes robust data protection by integrating Avamar Virtual Edition and Data Domain Virtual Edition for enterprise grade backup.

• A new management framework called DPMC (Data Protection Management Console) is available to facilitate automation of common backup management tasks and protect new VMs by applying policies on the cluster level. • DPMC is a standalone framework (GUI) that has the same look and feel as Prism Central and launches directly from Prism Central

7 What are the components / how do they work together? DPMC management framework

PowerEdge 740xd XC Series HCI Cluster

DD Boost

DDVE for XC DPS for XC Cloud Provider (AVE)

AVE as part of DPS for XC AVE backs up data using DD Boost installed in VM directly on XC transport to DDVE for XC backup DDVE backup target can be configured to leverage Azure, cluster target installed in VM on PE Virtustream or ECS for data tiering (not backup!) R740xd server hardware

10 Deployment and Use Pre-requisites

• Requires storage provisioned within the Prism tool (storage container) for AVE and separately for DPMC – affects availability, whether dedupe / compression are enabled, and other features

• Note: It is important that data deduplication is turned off for the Avamar VMs container to eliminate corruption on the Avamar VM.

• DDVE is deployed on a separate, dedicated ESXi host, with recommendation of a dedicated datastore for DDVE alone (performance isolation, management)

12 Prism Central • VM deployed for central management of one-to-many Nutanix clusters

• DPMC leverages Prism Central for cluster management functions

13 DPMC Overview • Consolidation and management of AVE / DDVE in connection with Prism Central

• DPMC leverages Prism Central for cluster management functions

• Provides summary and overview for AVE, access to some data protection functions

14 DPMC Functionality • Proxy Deployment

• Policy Assignment

• Ad-hoc Backup

• Schedule and Retention Mgmt

• Restores require Avamar UI

• Policy editing, system administration in Avamar UI

15 DPMC Policy Management • Set management model

• Selection retention for backups

16 DPMC Policy Management – Schedule

17 DPMC Policy Management – Retention

18 DPMC – VM View, Ad-Hoc Backup

Backup activity must be monitored in the Avamar UI

19 DPMC – Restore Functionality

• Operated entirely through the Avamar UI • Supports available restore functionality (original VM, redirected, VMDK, and FLR) • Instant access

26 26 DPMC – Hyper-V Differences

• Architecture for Hyper-V protection is different from ESXi / vSphere • Hyper-V host(s) become proxies due to VSS-centric architecture of Hyper-V protection – different from VADP solutions • DPMC exposes management of additional configuration for Hyper-V environments

27 DPMC – Hyper-V Differences

… and then magic occurs.

Between left and right, customer must configure a shared Nutanix storage volume for iSCSI connectivity from Avamar clients (Hyper-V hosts), configure volume inside Hyper-V via iSCSI, and run Federated Client Configuration Tool

• Short RTO: • Automatic conversion to AMI once the next copy is available on the cloud • Recovery simply launches an EC2 instance from an existing AMI • Eliminates dependency on the VM size

• Efficient S3 storage consumption: • Enable for specific virtual machines, where short RTO is needed • Only the latest rapid recovery copy is stored on your cloud account

• Create logical groups to allow easy recovery of multiple virtual machines DR Plan Test, Failover

• Execute Test, failover, failback operations of multiple VMs through a single operation EC2 EC2 Failback • A DR plan can be split to individual recovery activities EC2 EC2 • Orchestrated runbook definition for all DR Plan members: Boot order, Network settings, Security groups, EC2 instance type selection
