IBM Assessment: Virtualization Technical Support for IBM i -v1 Sample Questions:

1. A client IBM i partition is implemented across two VIO Servers (VIOS) and the network is configured with SEA failover.
VlQS-1 is configured as the primary network path, and VIOS-2 as the secondary.
When VIOS-1 is removed for maintenance purposes, the client IBM i partition network traffic moves to VIOS-2.
What is the result when VIOS-1 returns to a running state?

A) The client IBM i partition begins to use both VIQ Servers to access the network.
B) Access to the network from VlOS-1 is returned after the virtual Ethernet adapters are DLPARed back in.
C) The client IBM i partition continues to access the network through VIOS-2.
D) The network will revert automatically to VIOS-1.

2. Disk from a fibre-attached V7000 disk subsystem will be used for an IBM i partition. What type of adapter is required in the IBM i partition?

A) Fibre Channel adapter
B) SAS disk adapter
C) Virtual SAS adapter
D) Virtual SCSI adapter

3. A customer with an IBM i environment containing an iASP runs a Save 21 monthly. Normally the save takes about 5 hours. This month, the save took less than an hour. No errors were encountered on the save, and the amount of data in *SYSBAS and the ASP hasn't changed significantly. What is the most likely explanation for the difference in time required to process the save?

A) The user performing the save didn't have *ALLOBJ authority.
B) The ASPGRP was not correctly set in the backup job description.
C) The iASP was notvaried on before the Save 21 was processed.
D) Entry to the iASP was locked by a system task.

4. A Power 720 system has a VIO Server (VIOS) partition configured completely in the CEO. The VIOS partition hosts IBM i client partitions which require access to the DVD drive in the CEO. How is this accomplished?

A) Use VIOS to map the DVD drive to the IBM i client partition.
B) Create a shared vSOSI link from VIOS to each IBM i client partition and mapthe DVD drive to each partition.
C) Create an image catalog in the IBM i client partition and map itto the DVD drive.
D) Use DLPAR to move the DVD drive between partitions as needed.

5. A Power 720 administrator is going to create a new partition on a machine with 3 existing partitions. The machine has 2 processors in a Shared Processor Pool. The three partitions as defined below for their processor requirements are active, utilizing the Desired processing units.

What is the effect of configuring partition LPAR4 as follows using the same processor pool?

A) LPAR4 profile cannot be saved until the maximum is set to 0.8 or less.
B) LPAP4 will not start since there is not enough processor capacity to satisfy the minimum.
C) LPAR4 will start but only receive 0.2 of a processor.
D) All the partitions in the Shared Processor Pool will have their desired processing units reduced by .1 when LPAR4 is activated.
