IBM WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment V8.5 Core Administration Sample Questions:

1. A system administrator needs to deploy an enterprise application to a WebSphere Application Server environment. Before starting the deployment process, the administrator uses the IBM Assembly and Deploy Tool (IADT) to inspect the EAR and notices that it is enhanced. Since enhanced EARs are not allowed in their runtime environment, the system administrator needs to unenhance the EAR. How can the system administrator successfully remove the enhancements?

A) Use WebSphere Customization Toolbox (WCT) to unenhance the EAR.
B) Remove the META-INF/ibmconfig folder from the project before exporting the EAR.
C) Disable the applicationscoped resources in the application deployment descriptor.
D) Make sure that Process embedded configurations is not selected when exporting the EAR.

2. A system administrator has configured a clustered environment where session persistence
is configured. While tuning the environment, the administrator enables verbose garbage collection. Now the administrator is seeing a high CPU usage for the servers in the cluster and begins seeing out-of-memory exceptions in the log files. How can the system administrator diagnose what is accumulating in the memory and causing the out-of-memory exceptions?

A) Enable High Performance Extensible Logging (HPEL).
B) Disable verbose garbagecollection and compare the before and after verbose garbage collection statistics.
C) Use the Garbage Collection and Memory Visualizer tool in the IBM Support Assistant.
D) Examine the verbose garbage collection statistics in the SystemOut.log files.

3. A system administrator wishes to use Cross Component Trace (XCT) to follow the end-toend flow requests in a cluster. The administrator enables log and trace correlation, but cross component trace appears to lack the necessary request IDs. What additional step needs to be taken by the system administrator to have Cross Component Tracefunction as expected?

A) Enable High Performance Extensible Logging (HPEL).
B) Verify all components are part of the same service integration bus.
C) Enable the replication domain on the cluster.
D) Add all cluster members to the same core group.

4. A system administrator needs to add a file to update an already deployed application using the monitored directory deploymentfeature. How should the system administrator do this?

A) Create a properties file and copy it to the monitoredDeployableApps/deploymentProperties directory.
B) Create a wsadmin script and add it to the monitoredDeployableApps directory.
C) Add a file to the root of the monitoredDeployableApps directory.
D) Create a properties file and include it in the EAR's deploymentProperties directory.

5. A system administrator isplanning to use Intelligent Management features in an existing cell with managed web servers running in the DMZ. The system administrator has created the On Demand Router (ODR) server, however, no traffic is routed to the application servers through the ODR. What should the system administrator configure to fix this issue?

A) Add web servers to the list of servers managed by the ODR, generate plugin-cfg.xml and copy to the web servers.
B) Regenerate plugin-cfg.xml file and copy to the web servers.
C) Add web servers as secure proxies for the ODR, generate plugin-cfg.xml and copy to the web servers.
D) Add web servers to the list of servers managed by the ODR.
