Veritas NetBackup 8.3 and NetBackup Appliances 3.3 Administrator — Question 25

An administrator configures a default Standard file system backup policy, which backs up very large file systems from a set of clients. There are multiple scheduled backup attempts configured.
How can the administrator reduce the amount of time needed to complete these backup jobs after failures?

Answer options

• A. configure the Take checkpoints every policy setting
• B. increase the Job retry delay host property setting
• C. use the Resume Job action instead of Restart Job
• D. increase the Client connect timeout host property setting

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Increasing the Job retry delay host property setting allows more time for the system to recover before attempting a new backup, thus reducing the strain on resources and improving completion times. The other options either do not directly address the issue of time management after failures or pertain to different aspects of backup configurations.
