• Question 121:

  What is the purpose of IBM Spectrum Protect for Databases?

  A. protects offline a range of application data by securing the underlying database management systems that contain that data

  B. protects a range of application data by securing the underlying database management systems that contain that data

  C. online backup support for IBM Informix database

  D. online backup support for IBM DB2 database

  Correct Answer: B

  IBM Spectrum Protect for Databases (formerly IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Databases) helps protect

  Oracle and Microsoft SQL data no matter where it is stored. You can continue running primary applications

  on your database servers while they back up; and restore data to and from offline storage using automated

  tasks, utilities and interfaces. This software performs online, consistent and centralized backups to help

  you avoid downtime, protect vital enterprise data and minimize operational costs.

  Incorrect Answers:

  C, D: Online backup support for IBM DB2 and IBM Informix databases is included in IBM Spectrum Protect

  servers, without the need to install IBM Spectrum Protect for Databases.

• Question 124:

  When should Node Replication be scheduled to run?

  A. when the database backup is running

  B. when no restore clients are running

  C. when no other Admin processes are running

  D. when backup-archive clients are running

  Correct Answer: C

  Ensure that you are running node replication after client backup.

  Complete data deduplication processing before replication processing. Schedule compression after

  replication.

  Figure. Daily schedule when data deduplication and node replication are used

• Question 125:

  An administrator has client owner authority and needs to delete previous backups performed by that node without accessing the IBM Spectrum Protect server. What must happen for this to occur?

  A. The administrator must delete the filespaces.

  B. The administrator must be granted system authority.

  C. Backup deletion must be enabled for the node.

  D. The administrator must expire the backup data.

  Correct Answer: B

  The delete backup command deletes files, images, and virtual machines that were backed up to IBM Spectrum Protect server storage. Your administrator must give you authority to delete objects.

• Question 126:

  Which statement is true regarding an administrative with node owner authority?

  A. Only one administrator can have owner authority of a node.

  B. They cannot log on locally to the backup-archive client.

  C. REVOKEREMOTEACCESS prevents access through the web backup-archive client.

  D. They can access node data from another node.

  Correct Answer: A

  Owner: Specifies that you want to grant client owner authority to a user with the node privilege class. A user with client owner authority can access a web backup-archive client through the web client interface and also access their data from another client using the -NODENAME parameter.

• Question 127:

  Which statement is true regarding scheduling a reclamation process without impacting client backup in IBM Spectrum Protect?

  A. Reclamation should be allowed to happen only by the automatic threshold.

  B. Reclamation should be scheduled to start after client backups finish utilizing a duration that ends before client backups start.

  C. Reclamation is only scheduled through an administrative script.

  D. Reclamation can only be scheduled through the Operations Center.

  Correct Answer: A

  Volume reclamation occurs when the reclamation threshold for the container-copy storage pool is less than 100%. However, onsite volumes are not a candidate for reclamation until they are 75% full.

• Question 128:

  What are three required settings to configure server-to-server communication? (Choose three.)

  A. SET SERVERHLADDRESS

  B. SET LLAADRESS

  C. SET SERVERNAME

  D. SET CONFIGMANAGER ON

  E. SET CROSSSERVER ON

  F. SET SERVERPASSWORD

  Correct Answer: ACF

  Example: Cross-define two servers Use cross definition to define SERVER_A and SERVER_B. On SERVER_B, specify the server name, password, and high- and low-level addresses of SERVER_B. Specify that cross defining is allowed. set servername server_b set serverpassword mylife set serverhladdress 9.115.20.80 set serverlladdress 1860 set crossdefine on
