Question 3

An administrator needs to decrease the total amount of time required to back up a UNIX file server, but requires a full backup every night recovery purposes.

How should the administrator proceed?

    Correct Answer: B

    The administrator should use NetBackup Accelerator. Although client-side deduplication can reduce the amount of data sent over the network and thus the backup time, it doesn't align well with the requirement of performing full backups every night. NetBackup Accelerator, on the other hand, is designed to provide the effect of a full backup by leveraging previous backups and only transferring new or changed data, which effectively minimizes the time needed for backups while ensuring recovery purposes are met.

in my opinion: B not D client-side deduplication may help to reduce backup time, but since full backup are required, we should use accelerator.
