IBM C2010-509 Online Questions & Answers

• Question 1:

  Disk drives are used for which two types of storage pools?

  A. disk storage pool
  B. variable access storage pool
  C. remote access storage pool when configured as a NAS device class
  D. remote access storage pool when configured as a SAN device class
  E. sequential access storage pool when configured as a FILE device class
  A. disk storage pool
  D. remote access storage pool when configured as a SAN device class

  ---

  A: Device Class: Disk Storage volumes that reside on the internal disk drive

  Tivoli Storage Manager devices can be physical, such as disk drives and tape drives, or logical, such as files on disk or storage on another server.

  D: A NAS is a file server.

  Not E: Files on Disk as Sequential Volumes (FILE)

  This device type allows you to create sequential volumes by creating files on disk storage. To the server, these files have the characteristics of a tape volume.

• Question 2:

  What happens to data that is scheduled to be archived if there is no archive copy group in the management class?

  A. The archive fails.
  B. The archive retention grace period of 90 days is used.
  C. The archive retention grace period of 365 days is used.
  D. The default backup copy group setting Retain Only is used.
  C. The archive retention grace period of 365 days is used.

  ---

  *

  . If you do not specify a management class, Tivoli Storage Manager uses the management class in the active policy set specifying the longest retention period.

  *

  The archive copy of the file managed by the grace period is retained in server storage for the number of days specified by the archive retention grace period. This period starts from the day on which the file is first archived. For example, if the archive retention grace period for the policy domain STANDARD is used, an archive copy expires 365 days from the day the file is first archived.

• Question 3:

  Which statement is true about node replication?

  A. Only Backup-Archive data can be replicated.
  B. Node data can be replicated to multiple targets.
  C. Node replication does not support deduplication.
  D. Replicated data may be encrypted during transmission.
  C. Node replication does not support deduplication.

  ---

  Replication processing involves the interaction between replication rules, states, and modes. Data deduplication and the updating of client node attributes are also factors in node replication processing.

  Incorrect:

  not A: You can replicate the following types of client node data:

  Active and inactive backup data together, or only active backup data Archive data Data that was migrated to a source replication server by Tivoli Storage Manager for Space Management clients

• Question 4:

  What is the default log to record scheduled command output on a client?

  A. schedule.log
  B. tsmsched.log
  C. dsmsched.log
  D. adsmsched.log
  C. dsmsched.log

  ---

  Checking the Schedule Log

  The Tivoli Storage Manager client stores detailed information about each scheduled event in a file. This file contains information such as the statistics about the backed-up objects, the name of the server to which the objects are backed up,

  and the time and date of the next scheduled operation.

  The default name for this file is dsmsched.log.

• Question 5:

  Once the nightly backups are finished, what is one additional way to protect the files?

  A. run dedupe
  B. expire the database inventory
  C. migrate the primary storage pools to the copy storage pools
  D. back up the primary storage pools to the copy storage pools
  D. back up the primary storage pools to the copy storage pools

  ---

  After the initial full backup of your storage pools, incremental storage pool backups are done nightly.

• Question 6:

  Which task or process might be included in a server administrative schedule?

  A. Shred disk
  B. Promote disk
  C. Ingest inventory
  D. Expire inventory
  D. Expire inventory

• Question 7:

  IBM Tivoli Monitoring for IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) includes which three components?

  A. IBM DB2
  B. TSM Proxy Agent
  C. TSM Collection Agent
  D. Tivoli Data Warehouse
  E. TSM Enterprise Server
  F. Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server
  D. Tivoli Data Warehouse
  E. TSM Enterprise Server
  F. Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server

  ---

  Tivoli Monitoring consists of a number of components that accumulate and monitor historical data for reporting: / IBM Tivoli Enterprise Portal / IBM Tivoli Enterprise Management Server / Tivoli Data Warehouse

  IBM Tivoli Monitoring consists of Hub Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server (hTEMS), Remote TEMS (rTEMS), Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server (TEMS) and Tivoli Data Warehouse (DW).

• Question 8:

  Which statement is true regarding the recovery plan file?

  A. It is a list of all nodes to be recovered from an archive.
  B. It contains information required to recover an archive created by a node.
  C. It is created automatically whenever the MOVE DRMEDIA command is run.
  D. Is a template that contains information including commands for recovering the IBM Tivoli Storage Manager database.
  A. It is a list of all nodes to be recovered from an archive.

  ---

  Example:

  Task: Display a list of recovery plan files that were created for this server using the specified device class.

  Command

  query rpfile devclass=* format=detailed

  Output

  Recovery Plan File Name: ALASKA.20000406.170423

  Node Name: BRANCH1

  Device Class Name: REMOTE

  Recovery Plan File Type: RPFILE Mgmt Class Name: STANDARD Recovery Plan File Size: 16,255 Bytes Marked for Deletion: Yes Deletion Date: 06/12/2000 13:05:31

  Recovery Plan File Name: ALASKA.20000407.170845 Node Name: BRANCH1 Device Class Name: REMOTE Recovery Plan File Type: RPFSNAPSHOT Mgmt Class Name: STANDARD Recovery Plan File Size: 16,425 Bytes Marked for Deletion: No Deletion Date:

• Question 9:

  What is the main difference between backup and archive?

  A. Backup is only for databases.
  B. Backup is run daily and archive is not.
  C. Backup goes to disk and archive goes to tape.
  D. Backup provides versioning and archive does not.
  D. Backup provides versioning and archive does not.

  ---

  There are two copy groups that can be defined within a management class, the Backup copy group and the Archive copy group. The key difference between the two can be summarized in one word, versions. The backup feature keeps and maintains versions of backup data whereas the archive feature retains a long term copy of data without storing or maintaining versions.

• Question 10:

  Which IBM Tivoli Storage Manager server database backup type can be taken offsite?

  A. image database backups
  B. database snapshot backups
  C. differential database backups
  D. high availability database backups
  B. database snapshot backups

  ---

  Snapshot database backups are typically used for off-site disaster recovery purposes.

  Note: When the client backups are complete, the new data in the primary storage pools should be copied to a copy storage pool. The copy storage pool tapes, along with the database backup tapes, should be taken to a secure off-site location or vault. The copy storage pool and database backup tapes are referred to collectively as the off-site backups, and will be used to restore your environment in the event of a catastrophic failure or disaster.
