Data Domain- Avamar

We are going ot get new installs on Data Domain, and Avamar in the next few weeks.

I am new to the backup world. Where would be a good place to get started?

Also, is there any installation instructions. For example, what are the prereqs in my environemnt that I check for?

Thanks much,

    typically they will do the normal rack and stack , run through the configuration wizard that will configure DNS, NTP,  maybe some IP related stuff, really just basic stuff.  Then you take over and configure LACP/VLAN tagging if necessary, join to active directory (if required) ..etc.

    product admin guides are always a great place to start. Is the install being done by EMC ? Typically they send out a site preparation checklist so you know what you need to have ready.

    Dear dynamix,

    Yes, an EMC support personal will come, and do the setup. I wanted to be ready when he comes in as far as preparation on our end goes. Do you have any suggestions?

    Also, I will look for the products guides, thanks!
