IBM C2180-272 Online Questions & Answers

• Question 1:

  A solution developer needs to enhance an order processing message flow to create a file of all invoices processed, to show the date, time, invoice number and amount. The solution developer adds a Trace node at the end of the flow, and to also store the following information: Environment Invoice Number Amount Which Trace node pattern will provide the required output?

  A. Time=${CURRENT_TIMESTAMP} Invoice=${Environment.Invoice.Number || ' ' || Environment.Invoice.Amount}
  B. Time=${fn:CURRENT_TIMESTAMP} Invoice=${Environment.Invoice.Number || ' ' || Environment.Invoice.Amount}
  C. Time=${esql:CURRENT_TIMESTAMP} Invoice=${esql:CONCAT(Environment.Invoice.Number, ' Environment.Invoice.Amount)}
  D. Time=${CURRENT_TIMESTAMP} Invoice=${fn:CONCAT(Environment.Invoice.Number, ' Environment.Invoice.Amount)}
  A. Time=${CURRENT_TIMESTAMP} Invoice=${Environment.Invoice.Number || ' ' || Environment.Invoice.Amount}

• Question 2:

  While testing a message flow with a Compute node that contains two PROPAGATE statements, a solution developer discovered that the output message assembly is empty before the second PROPAGATE statement is executed. What must the solution developer do to prevent this from happening?

  A. Add a DELETE NONE clause to the first PROPAGATE statement.
  B. Add a DELETE DEFAULT clause to the first PROPAGATE statement.
  C. Add a FINALIZE DEFAULT clause to the first PROPAGATE statement
  D. Write a SET OutputRoot.Body = InputRoot.Body statement before the second PROPAGATE statement.
  A. Add a DELETE NONE clause to the first PROPAGATE statement.

• Question 3:

  A solution developer needs to implement Web Services Reliable Messaging (WS- RM) on a message flow for a stock trading company. During unit testing, the solution developer determines that only the first of four messages, expected in order, have arrived at the destination. During troubleshooting, what conclusion must the solution developer come to?

  A. The second message in the sequence is lost, and so the third and fourth messages have not processed yet.
  B. The sequence number of message two has got out of sync and a reset needs to occur to allow the other messages to flow to their target.
  C. The data of message two is corrupt not allowing message three or four to be processed and those messages are sitting on the reliable messaging source queue.
  D. The data of message two is corrupt not allowing message three or four to be processed and those messages are sitting on the reliable messaging destination queue.
  A. The second message in the sequence is lost, and so the third and fourth messages have not processed yet.

• Question 4:

  A solution developer needs to troubleshoot why a message flow does not process any messages from a remote resource. To review how the message flow interacts with all external resources, where should the solution developer look?

  A. The ODBC log.
  B. The JVERBOSE log.
  C. The WebSphere MQ log.
  D. The WebSphere Message Broker Activity log.
  D. The WebSphere Message Broker Activity log.

• Question 5:

  A message flow that uses an SAPRequest node is reporting an expired password error in the system log. Which command does the solution developer need to issue to update the expired password?

  A. mqsicvp
  B. mqsisetdbparms
  C. mqsichangebroker
  D. mqsichangeproperties
  B. mqsisetdbparms

• Question 6:

  A solution developer implemented a message flow for a book store company which receives an XML input message. The input message is formed according to an XML schema supplied by the client and used by several other applications owned by the company. The input node uses XMLNSC parser to parse the input message. The image below depicts a sample XML input message. According to business needs, the bookDetails elements and all of its children are not referenced by the code. Performance test for the flow showed a significant time spent in message parsing time especially for large messages.

  

  What should the solution developer do to enhance the message parsing time ?

  A. Use the MRM parser instead.
  B. Set the parse timing to Complete.
  C. Set the parse timing option to On Demand.
  D. Add the bookDetails element to the XMLNSC parse Opaque elements
  D. Add the bookDetails element to the XMLNSC parse Opaque elements

• Question 7:

  A healthcare company needs to implement WS-Security integrity message signing for an existing web service flow that will now be handling sensitive data. Which nodes can the solution developer use to develop this enhancement? (Choose two)

  A. HTTPInput
  B. HTTPRequest
  C. SOAPInput
  D. SOAPRequest
  E. SOAPEnvelope
  C. SOAPInput
  D. SOAPRequest

• Question 8:

  A sales company is currently running 2 message flows. The first, ProcessOrder, validates customer orders and then sends the shipping information to the warehouse via an MQ request message. Once the warehouse has shipped the order, a reply is sent back which is processed by the second flow, SendConfirmation, to send a confirmation to the customer. The company is now expanding and has multiple warehouses. The solution developer must modify ProcessOrder to send messages to each warehouse only for the items it stocks, and SendConfirmation to send a response message only when all warehouses have replied. What node(s) should the solution developer use?

  A. SendConfirmation -> MQGet
  B. SendConfirmation -> Collector
  C. ProcessOrder -> Sequence SendConfirmation -> Resequence
  D. ProcessOrder -> AggregateControl and AggregateRequest SendConfirmation -> AggregateReply
  D. ProcessOrder -> AggregateControl and AggregateRequest SendConfirmation -> AggregateReply

• Question 9:

  A broker application is deployed in a test environment. It is reported to be taking a long time to process messages. The solution developer is asked to find the average time taken by this broker application. The solution developer can determine this by enabling:

  A. Service Trace
  B. Resource Statistics
  C. Message Flow Statistics
  D. Message Queue Statistics
  C. Message Flow Statistics

• Question 10:

  A bank uses an online system to handle currency transactions, sent via MQ messaging. To avoid multiple database lookups to obtain the latest currency exchange rates, the rates are loaded into shared variables the first time the flow is executed. Periodic updates to the shared variables are made using a control message. As the volume of transactions increases, it is realized that a single instance of the flow can no longer cope, and so the solution developer is asked to investigate ways to increase throughput. How can the solution developer increase the message throughput?

  A. Define multiple instances of the flow on the BAR file.
  B. Deploy the flow to multiple execution groups.
  C. Deploy multiple instances of the flow in different schemas.
  D. Deploy the flow to a second broker and use MQ Clustering to redistribute these messages.
  A. Define multiple instances of the flow on the BAR file.
