VEEAM Exam VMCA2022 Topic 4 Question 13 Discussion

To design a solution that meets the NAS environment requirements for Veeam University Hospital, you need to collect some information during the discovery phase. This information will help you to understand the characteristics and performance of the NAS systems, the size and type of the data, and the backup and recovery objectives.

According to the Veeam Backup & Replication Best Practice Guide, some of the information that you should collect from the customer about the data stored on the NAS per site are:

* Total number of files (in millions) to be backed up. This information will help you to estimate the backup storage requirements, as well as the backup performance and scalability, based on the number and distribution of files.

* Largest file size. This information will help you to determine the optimal backup block size and alignment, as well as the backup compression and deduplication ratios, based on the size and type of files.
