- 23. Key components needed for backup to cloud
Data optimization
Shrinking data to the smallest size possible provides best usage of cloud storage as
well as fast replication
High-performance ingest and replication
Scalable local capacity (cache)
Capacity of local cache scales by adding disk packs and disk shelves
Virtual appliances offer up to 32TB local cache
Physical appliances offer 32TB and higher local cache, up to more than 500TB
Strong security and encryption
Data is encrypted before being written to disk (encryption at rest)
Replication to cloud through encrypted connect (encryption in flight)
Data in the cloud remains encrypted
Keys are kept on appliance, not stored with the data in the cloud
© 2015 NetApp, Inc. All rights reserved. NetApp Confidential – Limited Use23
- 24. Data optimization
Inline variable segment length finds
more duplicate data than fixed-block
solutions
More matches allow greater
reduction of data
Yields maximum data reduction
Compression further compacts data
Data is grouped into slabs to
optimize transmission and storage
within the cloud

- 32. NetApp AltaVault virtual appliance
Virtual models
AVA-v8, AVA-v16, AVA-v32
Provided for either VMware ESXi or Microsoft Hyper-V
Customer deploys in its datacenter
Licenses
Models come with a 90-day evaluation license
Customers who purchase enter a license key for the appliance
Getting the virtual appliance
Download from the software download section on the NetApp Support site
AVA-v8 model is downloaded and can be converted to a larger model after deployment
32 © 2015 NetApp, Inc. All rights reserved. NetApp Confidential – Limited Use
- 33. Provisioning a virtual appliance
There is only one VM template for each hypervisor type
Download the appropriate virtual appliance (ESXi or Hyper-V) from the
software downloads section on the NetApp Support site (NOTE: Some
configuration needs to be done before first boot!)
When the VM boots it has the AVA-v8 personality
For evaluation using the 90-day license
Change to a larger model by using the model-upgrade command
Log in to the CLI using SSH or open the console and from configure mode enter
license model-upgrade
For purchases
Enter the license key and the correct model will be set

- 34. Provisioning a virtual appliance
VMware hypervisor; greater than 2TB requires raw device mapping
(RDM)
For best performance utilize thick provisioning
Using a smaller data disk is supported; will also limit cloud capacity

- 35. Provisioning a virtual appliance
The virtual memory allocation has to be set for the appliance
It should be exactly the amount needed for the virtual model in use
The optimization service will not start if there is not enough memory
Adding more memory than is recommended does not provide a benefit

On first boot of a virtual appliance the data disk will be formatted and
configured (the RDM or VMDK that was added to the VM settings)
Open a console window
After the boot completes, the login will be shown
The default login is
admin
password
After logging in, the setup wizard will ask for:
Network settings for primary interface
