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

1. There are three Power Systems servers with redundant FSPs, and two HMCs. One HMC is in the data center while the second is in operations. Each HMC is connected to its own private network and each of the three systems are connected to both HMCs.
Two of the Power Systems servers and the HMC in the data center have been moved across the room. They have been reconnected to the HMC network, and power has been applied to the HMC and the first server. On the data center HMC the server shows up twice, once with "Authentication failed" and the second with "no connection." Connecting to ASM yields "incorrect password" on the first instance, but works on the second instance.
What the most likely cause?

A) The service processors have different HMC access passwords.
B) The firmware on the service processors is out of sync.
C) Power was applied to the server before the HMC was up and running.
D) The data center and operations HMCs are now on the same network.

2. A customer needs two client IBM i partitions on a 4-core Power 720, with storage hosted by VIO Server. What is the least expensive method to manage this environment?

A) Integrated Virtualization Manager
B) Virtual Partition Manager
C) Systems Director Navigator for PowerVM
D) HMC

3. An administrator has an IBM i 7.1 hosting partition with TP 4 installed. The administrator is designing Ethernet communications for 5 client IBM i LPARs. The managed system has only one Ethernet adapter with a single port available.
The partitions must be separated and secured from each other.
Which solution will provide Ethernet connectively at the lowest cost?

A) In each of the client IBM i LPARs, design a packetfilterto only accept inbound packets from the gateway router MAC address.
B) Specifyusing the CCA Cryptographic Service Provider(option 35 of 5770-SS1) to encrypt each of the Ethernet connections with a public/private key combination.
C) Design an IBM i bridged VLAN for each of the partitions.
D) Design a virtual LAN connecting each LPAR with a different IP subnet.

4. What is the purpose of Tagged I/O in a partition profile?

A) To configure vLANs on Host Ethernet Adapters
B) To specify critical hardware elements, without which the profile cannot be loaded or run
C) To allow the HMCto identifythe load source disk unit
D) To specifywhich hardware elements are available to be shared using NPIV

5. When configuring a bridged-virtual-Ethernet-to-physical-Ethernet environment, what value determines which bridge will serve as primary and which as secondary?

A) Queuing value
B) Class of Service value
C) Priority value
D) Quality of Service value
