    B. Limit the number of virtual processors on each DB2 partition to 15.
    C. Use partitions that cannot use more processor capacity than its assigned processing capacity for the DB2 partitions.
    D. Use a 15-core shared processor pool for the DB2 partitions.

  • Question 5:

    A customer has a requirement for four partitions, each with 1TB of Storage They want to put a new S814 machine in. but only have 4U available in the rack. Which POWER8 option accomplishes this?

    A. Order a 6-core machine with the Expanded Function backplane with (18) SFF SAS 283GB drives, all the drives owned by VlO Server and then allocated to each partition.
    B. Order a 6-core machine with the Split backplane, with each side having (4) 283GB drives for two partitions and two sets of EJ03 Disk Controllers each connected to a 5887 with (4) 283GB disks each for the other two partitions.
    C. Order a4-core machine with the Expanded Function backplane with (10) SFF SAS 571GB drives, all the drives owned by VlO Server and then allocated to each partition.
    D. Order a 4-core machine with the Split backplane with (18) SFF SAS 283GB drives, all the drives owned by VlO Server and then allocated to each partition.

  • Question 6:

    A customer requires each AIX or IBM i LPAR to have access to two different VLANs but without VLAN tagging. They plan to have dual VIO Servers on the same POWER8 system, using Ether Channel and SEA for each VLAN. What is the minimum requirement to support the configuration?

    A. (2) quad port Ethernet adapters
    B. (4) quad port Ethernet adapters
    C. (2) dual port Ethernet adapters
    D. (4) dual port Ethernet adapters

  • Question 7:

    A customer currently is running a POWER7 6-core 720 with 3 IBM i cores for production, and utilizing Power HA to a POWER6 2-core server as their backup machine.

    The production machine also has unlimited users, IBM i Access users, SOL, and ILE Compilers. They are only using the backup machine to do backups, but it is not a CBU; it has only one IBM i and one licensed Power HA core.

    The customer wants the backup server to have the same capacity as the production server so it can be a true high availability server.

    Which of the following is the correct course of action at the least cost?

    A. Upgrade the POWER6 to a POWER7.Add two additional IBM i and Power HA Licenses, IBM i and IBM i Access users SQL and ILE Compilers
    B. Upgrade both servers to P0WER8 and transfer all the software to the new POWERS servers.
    C. Purchase a new POWER8 to replace the POWER6 server and transfer the software from the POWER6 Designate the POWER8 as a CBU to the POWER7.
    D. Purchase two new POWER8 servers designating one of them as a CBU. Transfer all the software from the POWER7 to one of the POWER8 servers and all the IBM i and Power HA software from the POWER6 to the other POWER8 server.

  • Question 8:

    An AIX customer is running AIX 5.3 on a POWER7 machine and wants to run this workload on a POWER8 server without upgrading their operating system. What is their best option to migrate their workload?

    A. Power HA failover
    B. Live Partition Mobility
    C. Power VC
    D. Versioned WPAR

  • Question 9:
