A system administrator needs to install WebSphere Application Server binaries on a remote host. The administrator will use the Centralized Installation Manager (CIM) of a Deployment Manager. How should the administrator do this? To install the binaries executing a CIM job, the administrator should:

A. install Job Manager and register it to the deployment manager.

B. install an administrative agent and federate it to the deployment manager.

C. register the target host to the Job Manager server of the deployment manager.

D. transfer a IBM Installation Manager (IIM) kit to the target host and register it with the deployment manager.

A system administrator needs to connect to a database from an enterprise application where global security is enabled. What security object should the administrator use?

A. Security certificate

B. J2C authentication alias

C. Basic authentication token

D. Local operating system (local OS) user id

A cluster is a member of a service integration bus (SIBus) and is configured with the high availability messaging engine policy.

How should a system administrator configure JMS messaging so that message-driven beans (MDBs) on all cluster members can get messages?

A. Enable the JMS activation specification option: Always activate MDBs in all servers.

B. Enable the JMS destination option: Do not prefer a local queue point over other queue points.

C. Set the scope of all JMS destinations to the cluster that is a member of the SIBus.

D. Set the scope of the JMS connection factory to the cluster that is a member of the SIBus.

Consider the Exhibit,

a report generated by the IBM Support Assistant (ISA) that reveals a prevailing problem within a WebSphere Application Server environment. What should the administrator do?

A. Increase the amount of physical memory for the server.

B. Ensure that all connections taken from the data source are returned to the pool.

C. Determine why the collection class increases in size and consumes memory.

D. Modify the application so it uses stateless instead of stateful session beans to conserve the heap.

A system administrator has enabled the HPEL mode on an application server, but has disabled the HPEL text log to improve performance.

How can the administrator view only the messages that were streamed to System.out and System.err by a single server thread?

A. Use a text editor to open a log file in the server's logdata directory, and search for the thread ID.

B. Use the Log Analyzer to import the SystemOut.log file for the server and search on the thread ID.

C. Use the Integration Solutions Console (ISC) Log Viewer to select a thread and then click the "Show Only Selected Threads" button.

D. Use the Integration Solutions Console (ISC) Log Viewer's filtering section to search for the string "Thread ID*" in the message content field.

Performance issues have caused several high profile outages in a WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment V8.0 environment. The application developer has isolated the problem to one specific application. To assist with the problem diagnosis a system administrator has been asked to enable the highest level of WebSphere tracing available.

How should the system administrator accomplish this? Enable tracing and set the level to:

A. *

B. all

C. finest

D. debug

A system administrator needs to monitor a transaction and determine how much time it spends in the web container, EJB container, and backend database. Which tool should the administrator use to gather response times for each component?

A. Request metrics

B. Performance servlet

C. Thread Pool Summary Report

D. Runtime Performance and Diagnostic Advisor

An administrator needs to monitor the frequency of garbage collection (GC) cycles that are triggered when a typical client load is run against the server. How should the administrator monitor the frequency of garbage collections?

A. Use the Log Analyzer to view the verbose GC logs.

B. Use the HPEL Log Viewer and look for System.gc() calls.

C. Use the Tivoli Performance Viewer (TPV) and select the JVM Runtime.

D. Run the performance servlet to gather the verbose GC data.

While monitoring a JDBC data source's performance during a test load, a system administrator notices that there are a large number of prepared statements discarded from the cache. In order to improve application throughput, how should the administrator tune the data source?

A. Increase the size of the prepared statement cache until there are no statement discards under load.

B. Increase the maximum connection pool size and keep the prepared statement cache at its default size.

C. Set the connection pool purge policy to "EntirePool" and increase the maximum connection pool size.

D. Set the minimum connection pool size equal to the maximum connection pool size and keep the prepared statement cache at its default size.

The lead administrator needs to limit access to the Integrated Solutions Console (ISC) by a group of administrators who only need to: ?view the configuration of the WebSphere Application Server. ?monitor its status. ?stop and start the server.

To what administrative role should the lead administrator assign this group?

A. Auditor

B. Monitor

C. Operator

D. Configurator
