Level 1: Asigra Cloud Backup Foundation Training Course Description Delivery Method: Virtual Instructor Led Training Duration: 3 Days Course Objectives: This course teaches the fundamental operations of using Asigra Cloud Backup in a Data Center environment. The DS-License Server, the DS-System, and the DS-Client and are the core components that are examined. The content is primarily focused on configuration practices that could make deployment simpler in the long term. Participants are expected to participate actively as there are many lab exercises that will expose common pitfalls that can be avoided when working in a production environment. At the end of this training, participants will be able to: Determine which modules are licensed and how to leverage the numerous license types to your advantage Deploy Production and Emergency DS-License Servers Deploy physical and/or virtual DS-Systems Optimally configure the DS-System for best performance and automation of specific tasks Manage and monitor the DS-System DS-Client installation & configuration Backup set creation & usage (File System, Database, VSS aware) Generate and use reports and how to use them in conjunction with the Asigra Storage and Bandwidth Calculation tool This course consists of a total of three (3) Modules: DS-LICENSE SERVER MODULE Overview Production Emergency Prerequisites Linux Windows Connecting Service / Managing DS-Systems Managing BLMs Monitoring Logs
