Code NebulousCode Nebulous
Code Nebulous has seen a drastic increase in requests for customer-usable virtual machines (VM) stored and served
by a completely native Microsoft environment. This uptick in demand arises from customers discovering how versatil
VM can be in terms of quick creation for a short to mid-term project followed by an eventual tear-down of resources
used after the project.
Code Nebulous' CTO and CIO have requested that the IT team examine efficient and cost-effective ways to introduce a
robust means of empowering their internal customers with per project-based VM's followed by centralized tear-down
post-project as a competitive differentiator and as a means to keep up with the customer's demands.

SolutionSolution
As a mid-market business experiencing rapid growth, the deployment of Windows 2012 R2 has enabled Code
Nebulous to add Hyper-V 2012 leveraging SMB 3.0 support to its business applications catalog. In so doing, their
customers have discovered that even short-term projects require complete data protection, including granular restore
of a few files two to three times a week.
Avamar 7.2 has addresses this newly emerging business requirement with its support for SMB 3.0 storage and file
serving of Microsoft VM's, or Virtual hard Disks. Now that a Microsoft Hypvr-V-based cluster shared volume (CSV), an
expensive and more difficult to deploy implementation, is no longer required, this has made this all-Windows shop a
more productive business.
The ability to centrally delete these VHD's after the project is completed is an additional boost to Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), but Avamar 7.2's ability to maintain a separate expiration-based copy of these VM's for potential
later use is considered a fulfillment of the entire lifecycle. With Code Nebulous' backup admins leveraging Avamar's
flexible expirations, an auditor, compliance officer or even eDiscovery requests can be met long after the project has
been completed.

EMC Avamar OverviewEMC Avamar Overview
Avamar is a deduplication backup software and system, an integrated backup and recovery software and purpose-
built backup appliance solution for comprehensive backup and recovery across the enterprise. Avamar’s unique
client-side global deduplication technology eliminates redundant backup data that is sent over the network and
stored. Avamar deduplicates at the client, whether virtual or physical, and across sites and servers.
The Avamar Data Store has integrated high availability and reliability with RAIN (Redundant Array of Independent
Nodes) architecture, daily recoverability verification, and disaster recovery through replication. Avamar is proven to
lower costs and remove risks associated with traditional backup. Avamar is tightly integrated with Data Domainsystems through DD Boost software. Both Avamar and Data Domain are integrated and certified with VCE Vblock and
VSPEX systems.
Data Protection for Microsoft Hyper-V 2012R2Data Protection for Microsoft Hyper-V 2012R2
Avamar 7.2's latest support for Microsoft's Hyper-V 2012's SMB 3.0 is a critical differentiator for data protection of th
free hypervisor. While Hyper-V 2012, implemented either as a CSV or the more convenient SMB 3.0, offers hyperviso
access to virtual hard disks, the ability to protect this data, and restore all of it either in-place or out-of-place,
completes the lifecycle usage of data creation, data protection and project-complete virtualization resources returned
to the business with restores as needed from Avamar 7.2, the data protection component. The fact that Hyper-V has
always supported application-consistency in its applications is critical, allowing for both filesystem and application
backup as necessary.

Lab ScenarioLab Scenario
Image-level backup and restoreImage-level backup and restore
With image-level backup and restore, you install the Avamar Client for Windows and the Avamar Plug-in for Hyper-V
VSS on the Hyper-V management OS (parent partition). The Avamar Plug-in for Hyper-V VSS uses Microsoft Volume
Shadow Copy Service (VSS) technology to perform backups. VSS is a framework that enables volume backups while
applications on a system continue to write to the volumes. The VSS writer enables the creation of image backups for
virtual machines by quiescing the Windows operating system and applications within the guest for operating system
and application consistency. You can perform full image-level backups of individual virtual machines or the Host
Component, which contains the role-based security configuration for Hyper-V. Image level backups occur from the
Hyper-V management OS instead of the individual virtual machines.
Granular level recoveryGranular level recovery
Granular level recovery (GLR) enables you to mount an image backup to a temporary file system, and then browse and
restore individual files and folders. The temporary file system mounts in the C:\Program Files\avs\var folder, where
C:\Program Files\avs\ is the Avamar installation folder. You can mount the temporary file system on the management
OS of the Hyper-V Server. However, the best practice is to use a separate, (non-Hyper-V) Windows computer or a virtu
machine to host the temporary file system. Using a separate computer or virtual machine offloads the GLR activities
from the Hyper-V host. The separate Windows computer or virtual machine must use a supported operating system.

Data Domain system supportData Domain system support
You can store backups on either the Avamar server or an EMC Data Domain® system. Backup metadata is stored on
the Avamar server. Before you can store backups on a Data Domain system, you must add the Data Domain system to
the Avamar configuration by using the Avamar Administration Console. Then you select the Data Domain system in th
plug-in options when you perform an on-demand backup or when you create a dataset for a scheduled backup. You
can also use the command line interface (CLI) to perform backups to a Data Domain system. The steps to restore
backups are the same whether you restore from the Avamar server or a Data Domain system. The restore process
determines the location of the backup and restores the backup. The EMC Avamar and EMC Data Domain System
Integration Guide provides more information about Data Domain systems in an Avamar environment, including detailed steps to add a Data Domain system to the Avamar configuration.

Performance problems and other issues can occur if you install the Hyper-V GLR feature on the management OS of the
Hyper-V Server. To prepare a virtual machine or Windows client computer for GLR, install the Avamar Client for
Windows and the Avamar Plug-in for Hyper-V VSS. When you install the Hyper-V VSS plug-in, select the option to
install the Hyper-V GLR feature.
