  A. Can create and delete a virtual server pool

  B. Can only create a virtual server pool

  C. Can only delete a virtual server pool

  D. Cannot create or delete a virtual server pool. That is performed from the command line.

  Correct Answer: A

  Oracle Enterprise Manager effectively keeps your Oracle VM available and running efficiently. Specifically, it provides a graphical user interface for managing Oracle VM Server, guest virtual machines, and server pools. As with Oracle VM monitoring, administration of Oracle VM begins with the Virtualization Central page. You can perform administration tasks such as the following: Create, remove, and manage virtual server pools Register, deregister, edit, reboot, and stop virtual server Start, stop, suspend, resume, pause, un-pause, and edit guest virtual machines Note:

  * A Server Pool is a logical grouping of one or more virtual servers that share common storage. A virtual server can belong to only one virtual server pool at a time. Guest virtual machines and resources are also associated with server pools. Oracle VM Server Pool is an aggregate target type in Enterprise Manager to represent the server pool of Oracle VM Servers.

• Question 26:

  When you create reports using Information Publisher, which three statements are true?

  A. You always start from the beginning when you create custom reports.

  B. Both default categories and subcategories can be used for out of the-box reports.

  C. Time-period and/or target parameters can be used for viewing reports.

  D. Using reporting elements, you can add a variety of information to your report.

  E. No additional customization is provided after the reporting elements are assembled.

  Correct Answer: BCD

  C: By declaring report parameters, you allow the user to control what data is shown in the report. There are two types of parameters: target and time-period.

  D: Reporting elements are pre-defined content building blocks, that allow you to add a variety of information to your report. Some examples of reporting elements are charts, tables, and images.

  Incorrect:

  Not A: To create custom reports:

  Choose whether to modify an existing report definition or start from scratch. If an existing report definition closely matches your needs, it is easy to customize it by using the Create Like function.

  Not E: Custom Reports

  Although the predefined report definitions that come with Information Publisher cover the most common reporting needs, you may want to create specialized reports. If a predefined report comes close to meeting your information

  requirements, but not quite, you can use Information Publisher's Create Like function to create a new report definition based on one of the existing reports definitions.

In addition to setting the maximum number of repeat notifications, you can also set the time interval at which the notifications are sent (C, F).

• Question 30:

  Identify three consolidation choices handled by Oracle Enterprise Cloud Control Consolidation Planner.

  A. Physical-to-virtual

  B. Database consolidation on Exadata

  C. Application consolidation on Exalogic

  D. WebLogic consolidation on Exalytics

  E. Virtual-to-physical

  Correct Answer: ABC

  Using Enterprise Manager, you can transform existing data centers into a Cloud environment. Before setting up a Cloud, you should map out your infrastructure requirements, such as the physical and virtual networks, storage arrays, applications and so on.

  The Enterprise Manager Consolidation Planner is a powerful tool that helps administrators plan the Cloud architecture. It allows you to identify source and destination targets and applicable technical and functional constraints such as where the application can reside, and so on. You can generate consolidation advisories that may include plans to move from Physical to Virtual (P2V) (A) , Physical to Physical (P2P), or Physical to an Exadata solution (B). The Consolidation Planner can also be used to identify the database consolidation plan which is helpful when setting up Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS).
