Presentation
In today's business environment, securing IT environments is fundamental to sustaining corporate infrastructure. As ransomware attacks multiply, NetBackup 11 provides a leading solution for protecting against business interruption losses. This modern platform helps preserve control over critical information and maintain business continuity.
Throughout this intensive programme, explore NetBackup 11's full feature set to manage its components effectively. Configure primary servers, manage media gateways and create automated protection policies within hybrid cloud architectures. Technical learning focuses on implementing immutable storage and enabling intelligent data stream deduplication.
After these 5 days, you will have a rigorous methodology for administering the NetBackup ecosystem with confidence. You will be able to design, validate and restore virtual or physical infrastructures independently. Leave with a high-performance disaster recovery plan to strengthen your information systems' overall resilience.
Objectives
By the end of this course, you will be able to:
- design a data protection architecture aligned with current security requirements;
- configure primary servers, media gateways and network client agents;
- manage source-side deduplication to rationalise the overall storage footprint;
- implement strict immutability policies to protect backup images against malicious changes;
- orchestrate granular restores to recover files or databases quickly;
- troubleshoot common operational issues by systematically analysing activity log error codes.
Program
Module 1: understanding NetBackup 11 architecture and components
- Internal processes and encrypted communication flows between servers.
- Getting started with the administration Web UI and customising RBAC access rights.
- Exploring version 11's new technologies arising from integration with modern platforms.
Practical exercise
- Initialise the web administration console and structure the technical team's access policies.
Module 2: configuring and optimising storage
- Creating advanced disk pools and fine-tuning MSDP deduplication volumes.
- Native integration of remote storage solutions and connections to secure cloud environments.
- Managing backup image life cycles through SLP retention rules.
Practical exercise
- Deploy deduplicated storage and provision an off-site archive volume.
Module 3: structuring protection policies and restores
- Scheduling backups according to operational windows and recovery objectives.
- Implementing protection agents for relational databases and virtual clusters.
- Using granular recovery tools to restore specific files quickly.
Practical exercise
- Develop an automated backup policy for a complete production virtual machine estate.
Module 4: implementing cyber resilience and securing images
- Enabling WORM immutability locks to prevent backup data modification or deletion.
- Implementing encryption for data in transit and at rest.
- Configuring advanced security protocols and integrating multifactor authentication (MFA) into consoles.
Practical exercise
- Enable ransomware protection by applying an immutability lock to a strategic volume.
Module 5: monitoring infrastructure and resolving incidents
- Tracking daily backup progress through the real-time activity monitor.
- Collecting audit reports and learning to interpret the vendor's native error logs.
- Optimising transfer performance and maintaining the internal database.
Practical exercise
- Diagnose a simulated restore failure and apply a fix after identifying the error code.
