IBM Technical Sales Specialist C9010-251 Questions & Answers

  • Question 81:

    A customer is willing to consolidate several servers running Oracle and DB2 databases from several departments on a single server, while keeping them administratively separate.

    They are concerned about licensing after consolidation, because they are not willing to pay for Oracle licenses for the cores running DB2 and pay for DB2 licenses on cores running Oracle.

    What would be the best method to handle this situation, to make the environment compliant and achieve the customer demands?

    A. Create two capped LPARs, one for Oracle databases and other for DB2 databases, and make sure the LPARs have the right amount of cores assigned to them according to customer existing licenses

    B. Create one capped LPAR per consolidated server, on each LPAR profile page on the HMC select the corresponding database type, and make sure DB Isolation option is checked

    C. Create one uncapped LPAR per consolidated server, monitor CPU usage and keep a spreadsheet upto-date to account for the databases licenses used for compliance audits.

    D. Create two Shared Processor Pools, one for Oracle and another for DB2, and consolidate the servers on distinct LPARs on the corresponding pool

  • Question 82:

    A. S812L

    B. S822L

    C. S824

    D. S814

  • Question 83:

    A customer would like to consolidate their five AIX servers to one S822 server, in a virtual environment with two VIO Servers for boot drives.

    What is the minimum requirement?

    A. IVM

    B. ASMI

    C. PuTTY

    D. HMC

  • Question 84:

    What is the main function of the P0WER8 CAPI feature?

    A. It improves memory bandwidth.

    B. It improves cache coherency.

    C. It increases the clock frequency speed.

    D. It connects auxiliary processors such as GPUs.

    B. The number of installed cores

    C. The number of PCIe slots

    D. The number of rack EIA units.

  • Question 86:

    A customer wants to use SAN Flash Copy with Geographic Mirroring to synchronize an IBM i application between two sites. It is required that the application can be halted and moved to the remote system without disrupting other applications.

    Which of the following describes a required application characteristic to support these requirements?

    A. The application code and data must reside in an IBM i user Auxiliary Storage Pool (ASP).

    B. All the application data objects must be defined to remote journaling.

    C. The application code and data must reside in the IBM i system Auxiliary Storage Pool (ASP).

    D. The application code and data must reside in an IBM i Independent Auxiliary Storage Pool (ASP).

  • Question 87:

    Which of the following RAS features, previously available only on POWER 7+ midrange and enterprise systems is now available on POWER8 scale-out servers?

    A. Active Memory Mirroring, which maintains two identical copies of the Power Hypervisor in memory at all times.

    B. A redundant Service Processor with the ability to dynamically fail over from the primary service processor to a secondary for solid service processor fault.

    C. An on-chip controller on the processor module, which handles Power Management and Thermal Monitoring without a need for a separate controller.

    D. Active Memory Sharing, which can be exploited to increase memory utilization on the system by decreasing the system memory requirement.

  • Question 88:

    A customer is setting up two new partitions where IBM i is hosting the storage. The customer's high priority is to complete the backups to physical tape as fast as possible, while automating the movement of the single tape library between the partitions Tape library functions are needed for the backup.

    Which combination of storage virtualization will achieve the customer's backup priority''

    A. One very large virtual disk unit sized to fit the partition with a virtual iSCSI interface to the tape library.

    B. Virtual disk units sized to provide 10 disk units, with the tape and DVD virtualized by IBM i.

    C. Larger virtual disk units and a SAS adapter on each partition, with dual SAS adapter on the tape library.

    D. At least six virtual disk units with the tape drive virtualized with VIO Server and NPIV

  • Question 89:
