  Scenario

  Please read this scenario prior to answering the Question

  The daily mutual fund trading cycle consists of four key processes: Transaction capture, pricing, trading and reconciliation. Transaction capture consists of two sub-processes: manual exchange and loans and distributions (LSD). For transaction capture, retirement plan participants use an online account management application to enter manual fund exchange transactions. For LSD, plan participants use a separate application to enter requests. The LandD application determines whether the request can be fulfilled based on the mutual fund balances held in each plan balances and a set of business rules. Each day's captured manual exchange transactions accumulate in a transaction database.

  ArchiSurance contracts with a third-party information service to receive a file of mutual fund prices at the close of each trading day.

  The pricing application uses this file to convert captured transaction into trades, and then validates each trade against the mutual fund balances held in each plan. The pricing generates a trade file with the minimum number of trades necessary. The trading application sends this file to an external trading service. When the trading application receives a confirmation file back from the trading service, it passes it to the reconciliation application, which updates the plan recordkeeping database.

  The account management and LSD applications are hosted on separate application server clusters. Each cluster is a physically separate host that runs application server software on a set of virtualized hosts. All of these applications use a database server infrastructure that is hosted on another separate cluster of virtualized servers also on a dedicated physical host. The pricing, consolidation, trading and reconciliation applications, however, are batch applications that run on the ArchiSurance mainframe computer. All application hosts are connected via a converged data center network (DCN), which also connects them to a storage area network (SAN) as well as a wide area network (WAN) that is used to communicate with the external trading service. The SANincludes two physically separate storage arrays, ere of which holds data for all databases, and another that holds data for all files. Refer to the Scenario

  You have been asked by a team of IT auditors to show the applications used for daily trading and the infrastructure that underlies them, including all ArchiSurance servers, storage arrays and networks. It is not necessary to model the WAN or other external infrastructure.

  Which answer best describes the applications and infrastructure?

  

  A. Option A
  B. Option B
  C. Option C
  D. Option D
  C. Option C

  B. The Board of Directors has a business role in the project
  C. The transformed systems will store information of interest to the Board of Directors
  D. The Board of Directors has concerns about the project
  D. The Board of Directors has concerns about the project

• Question 6:

  Which of the following is the correct relationship to be used between the product and the application services?

  A. Product aggregates Application Services
  B. Application Services aggregate Product
  C. Product realizes Application Services
  D. Application Services realize Product
  A. Product aggregates Application Services

• Question 7:

  A. Insurance policy is composed of insured individuals
  B. Insurance policy is used by insured individuals
  C. All required information about insured individuals is stored within the insurance policy record
  D. Insurance policy groups insured individuals
  D. Insurance policy groups insured individuals

• Question 8:

  Which two concepts from the generic ArchiMate metamodel represent the external view on a system?

  A. Services and components
  B. Service and interface
  C. An active structure element and interface
  D. A behavior element and interface
  B. Service and interface

• Question 9:

  Scenario

  Please read this scenario prior to answering the question

  The ArchiSurance IT Operations (IT Ops) department has five core responsibilities, and continuously executes a core business process for each responsibility. (1) The Batch Ops process makes sure that batch jobs execute completely, successfully, and on time, consistent with their service level agreements (SLAs). (2) The Online Ops process makes sure that all web applications and content delivery services are available and performing according to their SLAs. (3) The Security Ops process protects ArchiSurance IT operations from being damaged by malicious or careless incidents. (4)The User Support process assists users of ArchiSurance systems with problems or requests. (5) The Continuous Improvement process monitors and measures the performance ot each of the other processes and works to solve problems and optimize use of ArchiSurance resources. In order to enable monitoring, each of the other processes generates monitoring data that is read by the Continuous Improvement process. The processes in the System Ops category, which are Batch Ops, Online Ops and Security Ops, each have a separate sub- process for incident management. These subprocesses are triggered, respectively, by Batch, Online and Security Incidents. One of the first steps in each incident management sub-process, is to pass an Incident Alert to each of the other System Ops processes. This is accomplished by posting the alert to the Alert Buffer. The Batch Ops process uses a schedule that lists all batch jobs and their dependencies. The schedule is used by two Batch Ops sub-processes. The Batch Planning sub-process updates this schedule for use by the Execution Management sub-process.

  The Batch Ops process uses a number of applications that interact with each other. The Batch Scheduler application enables users to manage a database of jobs, job schedules and dependencies, and launches batch jobs according to the database. The Batch Monitor application uses the job schedules as a reference to monitor job execution, and reports all exceptional conditions to the both the Batch Scheduler and the Incident Handler applications via the Alert Buffer described earlier In the scenario. The Incident Handler refers to a set of business rules to determine the systems and individuals that must be notified of each incident. Based on these determinations, the Incident Handler produces appropriate notifications.

  Due to their critical ity, the Batch Scheduler, Batch Monitor and Incident Handler applications are hosted redundantly in multiple geographically distributed data centers. In each data center, the three applications are hosted on a fully redundant virtual server cluster. Each cluster is connected to two site local area networks, each of which connects to a separate physical storage array.

  Refer to the scenario

  As part of an IT service management initiative, you have been asked to show how applications and infrastructure support the Batch Ops process. Model the applications, their functions, the data they access, and the infrastructure that hosts the applications and data, along with the networks that connect the servers. It is only necessary to model a single data center.

  Which answer provides the most complete and accurate model?

  

  

  A. Option A
  B. Option B
  C. Option C
  D. Option D
  A. Option A
