  Which cluster behavior is expected when the private switches are both shut down for the upgrade?

  A. All nodes in the cluster panic.
  B. The cluster remains online, but the service groups go offline.
  C. Private cluster communications are rerouted over the public network.
  D. The service groups go into ADMIN-WAIT state.
  D. The service groups go into ADMIN-WAIT state.

• Question 52:

  Where is the sysoffline trigger executed if a node goes into a jeopardy state or leaves the cluster?

  A. on all nodes in the cluster regardless of state
  B. on the node that goes offline by entering a jeopardy state or leaving the cluster
  C. on all the nodes in the cluster that are still in a RUNNING state
  D. on the lowest numbered system in the cluster with a RUNNING state
  D. on the lowest numbered system in the cluster with a RUNNING state

  B. All service groups are autodisabled.
  C. Nodes on each side of the split try to bring service groups online.

  A. It uses the Priority attribute of service groups to take lower priority service groups offline when a higher priority service group fails over to the system.
  B. It selects the biggest available target system to fail over an application when the service group attribute FailOverPolicy is set to BiggestAvailable.
  C. It switches a service group with FailOverPolicy set to BiggestAvailable to less loaded systems in the cluster when the local system becomes overloaded.
  D. It provides increased availability to the applications on the single node VCS cluster in virtual environments for planned maintenance events.
  D. It provides increased availability to the applications on the single node VCS cluster in virtual environments for planned maintenance events.
