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

1. What are the three types of network adapters that can be assigned to an IBM i client partition?

A) An Ethernet adapter A virtual Fibre Channel adapter A Host Ethernet Adapter
B) An Ethernet adapter in a PCIe slot A Host Ethernet Adapter A virtual Ethernet adapter
C) A client connect adapter A virtual Opticonnect adapter A Fibre Channel over Ethernet adapter
D) A Fibre Channel over Ethernet adapter An Ethernet adapter in a PCIe slot A Serial over LAN adapter

2. Additional SAN disk volumes have been dynamically presented to a VIO Server (VIOS) partition, and these resources need to be mapped to an IBM i partition. In order for these resources to be visible in the VIOS partition, what is the appropriate next step?

A) Run the cfgdev command in the VIOS partition.
B) Use the Disk Management function in System Management Services (SMS).
C) Add an SCSI device in the HMC for the client partition.
D) As padmin, run cfgmgr in the VIOS partition.

3. A hosted IBM i partition with SAN-based disk is to be configured with mirrored disks. In order to maximize performance of the partition, where should the disk mirroring be performed?

A) In the VIO Server partition
B) In the SAN Volume Controller
C) In the disk subsystem
D) In the IBM i partition

4. A client IBM i 7.1 partition has its disk provided by another IBM i partition, and owns a physical network adapter.
The host partition is put into restricted state.
What happens to the client partition?

A) It halts and resumes when the host is taken out of restricted state.
B) It shuts down and restarts when the host is taken out of restricted state.
C) It crashes and starts an abnormal IPL with Storage Management Recovery.
D) It continues to operate normally.

5. A small financial institution has a client IBM i 7.1 partition, hosted by a VIO Server, using internal disk. All disk storage is provided by VIOS. Bank policy requires all system and user data on disk to be duplicated.
Which option will satisfy the policy at the lowest cost without impacting performance?

A) Create two iASP5 with disk compression enabled.
Move the application into the first iASP and mirror it to the second iASP with 5770-SS1 HA
Switchable Resources.
B) Implement a secondVIOServer with its own storage and assign itto the client IBM i partition.
Mirror the drives provided by the firstVIOServer to the drives provided by the secondVIOServer.
C) Create an iASP, and copy each of the libraries containing the application into the iASP.
UsePowerHA to mirror the iASP and*SYSBAS.
D) Add a V7000 SAN with sufficient storage to create two copies of the storage, and use a
singleVIOServer to replicate the storage.
