5 EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Description Overview Skills Requirements This service performs an Implementation of the vsphere Data Protection product within a customer site. The vsphere Data Protection product is an OEM version of Avamar Virtual Edition with a reduced feature set, which is packaged and sold by VMware. This service is limited in scope and limited to remote delivery for several reasons: The vsphere Data Protection product is only available as a VMware virtual appliance. The vsphere Data Protection product is designed to protect only VMware virtual machines. The vsphere Data Protection has a limited feature set in contrast to Avamar Virtual Edition, and is marketed toward small-scale installations. There is no physical installation in the scope of work. This is an introductory service, structured to be delivered in an 8-hour window. The outline of this service is as follows: Use the Questionnaire to get data protection requirements from the customer. The customer must complete the Questionnaire before the commencement of the engagement. Verify the customer s virtual environment to assure a successful EMC Implementation of vsphere Data Protection. Deploy the virtual appliance using EMC and Avamar best practices. Create and execute a single backup job per the request of the customer. Perform a sample recovery based off of a successful backup job. EMC or partner personnel should have the following skills for the delivery of this service: vsphere Data Protection has many of the features of Avamar Virtual Edition, but does not have the same administrative interface and configuration menu. Delivery personnel should have hands-on experience with how to configure vsphere Data Protection, and use the Administrative interface. Unlike Avamar Virtual Edition, vsphere Data Protection can only be accessed from within VMware vcenter using the VMware vclient. Delivery personnel must have strong hands-on experience with the VMware vcenter and vclient products. Delivery personnel must have strong vcenter and ESXi administrative skills, specifically in the areas of virtual appliance implementation and administration, including virtual switching and virtual storage. EMC strongly recommends that delivery personnel perform at least one dry run of vsphere Data Protection in a lab environment before their first engagement. EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 1
6 vsphere Data Protection supports three Microsoft applications: Exchange, SQL, and SharePoint. Delivery personnel must be skilled in deploying a client to any of these platforms, and creating a backup job for any of these applications. The objective of this service is to enable the customer to be self-sufficient with vsphere Data Protection at the end of the engagement. Delivery personnel should expect a dialog to take place with the customer throughout the engagement. Delivery personnel must be ready and willing to depart sufficient knowledge during the service engagement so that the customer can effectively manage the product upon the completion of the engagement. Prerequisites and Assumptions Licensing The customer is responsible for providing the compatible VMware virtual infrastructure to support the Implementation and operation of vsphere Data Protection. All the conditions listed in the Pre-Engagement Readiness section of the Questionnaire must be addressed before the commencement of this service. This service is a remote-only delivery model. Global service personnel must have the appropriate tools to support remote delivery, including a WebEx account and teleconferencing capabilities. This service requires a browser that is compatible with VMware vclient, including an active VMware Client Integration Plug-In. This service offering is based on the customer utilizing the application protection features. The features to protect applications require a license to be purchased from VMware, or those features are enabled through a licensing agreement between EMC and VMware for specific EMC products.

8 Perform Project Planning Role Description Project Manager This activity covers the standard resource and Project Planning phase, which is performed ahead of the actual delivery. During this phase, it is imperative that the Questionnaire for this service is sent to the customer, and completed by the customer before the commencement of services. It is important in this phase that the customer understands the items listed in the Pre-Engagement Readiness section are out of scope for this service, and must be addressed before actual delivery is started. It is also important at this phase in the engagement that the Project Manager provides guidance to the customer regarding the logistics for the remote session for service delivery. The customer must provide network access to EMC delivery resources to the data center assets affected by this service. EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 4
9 Perform Planning and Requirements Review Role Description Task List Execute EMC Backup System Sizer Review Questionnaire Project Manager and Implementation Specialist This is the commencement of the remote delivery session with the customer. The project manager only needs to be involved at the commencement of this session to set the agenda and make introductions. Execute EMC Backup System Sizer Review Questionnaire The values in the Data Protection Sizing Information section of the Questionnaire are used as input into the Backup System Sizer tool. The two tables in this section are used to create Data Sets on the Summary page of the Backup System Sizer tool. The vsphere Data Protection product is designed to protect only VMware virtual machines. For this reason, only storage values for structured data and unstructured data base on VMware VMDKs are used for calculating storage requirements. Read Appendix A: Using EMC Backup System Sizer for more information on how to use the tool for storage sizing for vsphere Data Protection. The Pre-Engagement Readiness section of the Questionnaire addresses the state of the customer for implementation of the vsphere Data Protection product. It lists the conditions and pre-requisites the customer must have addressed for the service to be successfully delivered. Verify all these items have been resolved. Review the Virtual Appliance Configuration section of the Questionnaire to be sure the vcenter host is accessible over the network, and can be accessed through the vclient. Review the Backup Job Planning Information section of the Questionnaire to create the initial backup job in vsphere Data Protection after the virtual appliance is deployed. EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 5
10 Environment Verification and Preparation Role Description Task List Verify Customer Environment Verify Backup Clients Implementation Specialist Use the information provided in the Questionnaire to perform a verification of the customer s environment. Use the guidelines in the section below to perform the system verification and preparation. Verify Customer Environment Verify Backup Clients Use these guidelines to perform the verification: Verify authentication into vcenter with vcenter Web Client with login provided by customer. Verify user has Administrator privileges with vcenter. Verify Client Integration Plug-in is installed and enabled. Verify target datastore(s) for vsphere Data Protection have sufficient capacity. Verify the virtual machine(s) to be protected. Use the information in the Backup Job Planning Information section of the Questionnaire. Verify each backup client is reachable by IP address. Verify authentication to each backup client. A user with Administrator privilege is needed to deploy the backup agent. EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 6
11 Deploy Virtual Appliance Role Description Implementation Specialist Deploy the virtual appliance per the vsphere Data Protection Administrator Guide. Use the information in Appendix B: vsphere Data Protection Verification to verify the application is operating normally. EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 7
12 Perform Performance Assessment Test Role Description Implementation Specialist Use the Performance Assessment Test tool built into the vsphere Data Protection to verify the datastores targeted for the backup jobs can support backup activity. Use the information in Appendix C: Executing Performance Assessment Test for guidance on performing this test. It is EMC best practice to deploy vsphere Data Protection on storage, which passes this performance test. Note that this does not disqualify the application from working in the customer environment. It means the application may reach IO thresholds when executing backup jobs, which may restrict planned activity from completing within the backup window. EMC recommends higher performing storage is deployed if the storage fails the Performance Assessment Test. EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 8
13 Configure Backup Policies Role Description Implementation Specialist The backup policies are enforced through the creation and execution of backup jobs in vsphere Data Protection that map to the customer s requirements. Refer to the Backup Job Planning Information section of the Questionnaire to determine where to deploy the vsphere Data Protection agent and for the parameters to create the initial backup job. Important! It is important that the customer is aware that both the execution of a backup job and the execution of a recovery job based on this initial policy are included in the scope of work. This is done to demonstrate usage of the product during the interactive session. The backup job will utilize virtual resources during execution, and the execution of the sample recovery job will likely incur downtime for the protected application. For these reasons, a limited sized, non-production application is required for this purpose. Task List Deploy Data Protection Agent Configure Backup Job Deploy Data Protection agent Configure Backup Job The configuration of the initial backup job is included in the scope of work for this service. The customer has the option of selecting the type of backup per the responses in the Questionnaire. If the initial backup job is targeted for a supported application (Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint), then a vsphere Data Protection agent must be deployed on the target virtual machines before a backup job is created. Refer to Appendix D: Deploying Application Backup Client for more information on deploying a vsphere Data Protection agent. The configuration of the initial backup to support the customer s requirements is performed from within the vsphere Data Protection instance in the vclient, and should be performed only after any necessary agents have been successfully deployed. The settings for the schedules and the retention policies are universal for all backup jobs created in vsphere Data Protection. The responses to Data Protection Sizing Information section in the Questionnaire are the baselines to be used for the retention policies. Refer to Appendix E: Creating an Application-Specific Backup Job for more information on the settings for creating a backup job for an application. EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 9
14 Execute Initial Backup Job Role Description Implementation Specialist Verify the backup job created in the previous step works as planned through a trial execution. Upon completion of the backup job, select the Restore tab to view the protected application items. Try to estimate the time it will take to complete the backup job, and compare that to the time remaining to complete the remainder of the service engagement. If time estimated for the backup job will compromise the time left to complete other tasks, consider the option of creating a backup job with a smaller protection set. For instance, if the customer wants a backup job that protects SQL Server databases, then reduce the number of instances in the backup job to a manageable level, and show the customer how to modify the backup job to add in more database instances. EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 10
15 Execute Initial Recovery Job Role Description Implementation Specialist Upon completion of the initial backup job executed in the previous step, a trial execution of the recovery job is executed on the protected application. In order to stay within the scope parameters of the engagement, select a restoration job that can be completed within a reasonable timeframe. Refer to Appendix F: Executing a Recovery Job for insight into executing a recovery job for an application. EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 11
16 Conduct Functional Overview Role Description Implementation Specialist Provide a basic overview of vsphere Data Protection. Be sure to include an overview of the Reports and Configuration sections. EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 12
17 Complete Configuration Guide Role Description Implementation Specialist The Configuration Guide is left with the customer upon completion of the service engagement. The Site Information worksheet contains the values from the Virtual Appliance Configuration section of the Questionnaire. The Sizing worksheet contains the values from the Data Protection Sizing Information section of the Questionnaire, and the results from the EMC Backup System Sizer tool. The Backup Window worksheet is based on the Backup Job Planning Information section of the Questionnaire. The Backup Jobs section should list the values for the initial backup job created in this service engagement EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 13
18 Appendix A: Using EMC Backup System Sizer You can use the EMC Backup System Sizer tool to provide sizing estimates for vsphere Data Protection. The first step is to create the customer and sizing type: Figure 1. EBSS Account Selection Then from the Summary tab, create Data Sets for the structured data and unstructured data: Figure 2. EBSS Data Sets The type VMDK- Content is Database is for virtual machines supporting applications such as Exchange, SQL Server or SharePoint. The remainder of the virtual machine to be protected can be assigned to the type VMDK- Content is File System. The estimated EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 14
19 reduction ratios for both data classifications are different, and should be sized in separate data sets. Figure 3. EBSS Summary and Results Use the values in the Results section on the Summary page to position to model size to deploy for vsphere Data Protection. You can use the metrics in the Capacity Information on the Summary page complete the Configuration Guide. EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 15
20 Appendix B: vsphere Data Protection Verification During the Implementation of the vsphere Data Protection virtual appliance, the software must be configured. Upon completion of the configuration steps, log into the application from a browser: Address>:8543/vdp-configure Figure 4. DP Virtual Appliance Configuration The vsphere Data Protection application plugs itself into vcenter. The application can be accessed from the main vcenter screen. Figure 5. VDP Connection from vclient EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 16
21 Connect to the virtual appliance to access vsphere Data Protection from within the vclient interface. Figure 6. VDP Main Screen View EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 17
22 Appendix C: Executing Performance Assessment Test You have two options for executing the Performance Assessment Test: At the end of the initial configuration of the virtual appliance. From the Storage option within the vsphere Data Protection Configuration Menu. The advantage of the first option is the selected datastore is tested before the virtual appliance is completely configured, thereby saving the need to backtrack. However, the internal menu option allows you to select an alternative datastore in the event of a failed performance test. Figure 7. Run PAT at Final Stage Completion If the Performance Assessment Test is run during the virtual appliance configuration stage, the Implementation will fail if the selected datastore does not pass this test. The Performance Assessment Test can be also be executed after the Implementation of the vsphere Data Protection virtual appliance. To execute the Performance Assessment Test using this method: Log into the virtual appliance using this URL format: of virtual appliance>8543/vdp-configure Select the Storage option from the Main Menu. Select Performance Analysis. Select a datastore from the list, and run the test. EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 18
23 Figure 8. Execute PAT from Storage Menu Typically, the PAT takes minutes to complete. Figure 9. PAT Completion EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 19
24 Appendix D: Deploying Application Backup Client You can download Agents for vsphere Data Protection after the virtual appliance is configured and the management interface is accessible from a vclient. You can access the client install packages from the Configuration view. Figure 10. Client Download The backup clients are MSI packages, and must be downloaded to the respective virtual machines running the application the customer wants to protect. Refer to the Questionnaire to determine which of the backup clients is to be deployed to support the initial backup job. In each instance, pre-implementation configuration work must completed by the customer before this step is undertaken. In addition, the required settings for the backup client must be recorded in the Questionnaire. If the application to be protected is SQL Server, then review the vsphere Data Protection Administration Guide and verify all pre-requisites for the agents are completed. For instance, the SQL Server agent requires the Client Tools SDK be installed on the server. Figure 11. SQL Server Feature Selection This tool is used to provide connectivity to backup and recovery jobs enabled in vsphere Data Protection. In addition, the customer is responsible for providing the method of authentication for the SQL Server agent. The customer is responsible for providing the appropriate Active Directory Username and Password if NT authentication is selected, or the appropriate SQL Server Username and Password if that method of authentication is selected. EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 20
25 If the application to be protected is Exchange, then the customer is responsible for any pre-requisites required for this agent. For instance, the Exchange agent requires that the Exchange Messaging API and Collaboration Data Objects are installed in the Exchange server for the Granular Level Recoveryoption. Figure 12. Exchange Messaging API and CBO In addition, the customer must provide the credentials for a user with the necessary privileges to execute a backup and recovery job using this agent with vsphere Data Protection. It is advisable to review the vsphere Data Protection Administration Guide beforehand to understand the requirements for this user before configuring this application agent. A default client can be configured for this purpose during the install process using the Client Configuration Tool. This tool can be executed during the install process, or at a Figure 13. VDP Exchange Backup User Configuration later time by the customer. The default path to the tool is: <C:\Program Files\avp\bin\vmbackupusercfg.exe> If the customer has a user configured that already meets the necessary requirements, then that can be selected in the Client Configuration Tool. The tool can be used to verify the selected user meets all of the necessary criteria. If a user with the appropriate privileges does not exist, then this tool can be used to create a user for this purpose. EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 21
26 The user will be created in Active Directory, and be assigned to the necessary security groups needed to enable Exchange backups. In addition, a mailbox will be set up for this user on the Exchange server. Figure 14. VDP Exchange User EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 22
27 Appendix E: Creating an Application-Specific Backup Job If no application agents are deployed on a specific virtual machine, then the only type of backup job that is supported is an image-level backup. This process is enabled through a snapshot of the virtual machine being taken during the execution of a backup job. For an application-specific protection, the agents for vsphere Data Protection must be enabled before an application-specific backup job can be created. Individual applications, such as SQL databases and Exchange stores, cannot be selected when creating a backup job if the agent is not functional. It may take a few minutes for an agent to fully register with vsphere Data Protection before individual applications can be selected for protection in a backup job. Figure 15. VDP Backup Job Targets When a backup job is created for a specific application, then more precise settings can be enabled to meet the customer requirements. The settings support both full and incremental backups for a given application, for instance. EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 23
28 Figure 16. VDP Backup Job Options EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 24
29 Appendix F: Executing a Recovery Job After the backup job from the previous step has completed, execute a sample recovery job using the backuip image. This section outlines a sample use case for restoring an SQL Server database named vdpa-sample. Important! The execution of the recovery job must be done with careful coordination with the customer. A recovery job is only executed on a non-production application instance and with the explicit permission of the customer. The recovery job will incur downtime on the selected application. A recovery effort is not to be performed by the delivery resource on a production application. Use SQL Server Manager to delete the database. The customer can perfomr this step. Figure 17. Delete Sample SQL Database Select the Restore option in vsphere Data Protection Main Menu, and then select the location of the SQL Server database instance. Figure 18. Initiate Restore Job The following screens will display date and time stamps for all of the completed backup jobs. Select the most current item, and traverse through the menu to locate the SQL Server database instance. We deleted the SQL Server database in the initial step, the entire database is restored to its original location. EMC Implementation for vsphere Data Protection Page 25
