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

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

2. A customer has multiple POWERS 570 servers. The servers are controlled by multiple HMCs. The customer is installing an additional Power 770 server in this environment but will retain their existing HMCs. No updates to FSP or HMC levels have been made since installation of the POWERS servers.
After reviewing the cover letters for ESP and HMC firmware levels, what updates are required to support the addition of the new server into the network?

A) Update the FSP5 and HMC5 of the existing systems to the minimum level required.
B) Update only the FSPs to the latest release available.
C) Update the POWERS ESPs to the most recent version available for the installed firmware release. Update the HMCs to the most recent release available.
D) Update only the HMCs to the latest version.

3. A customer has several client IBM i partitions, hosted by other IBM i partitions. Corporate IT policy specifies that certain optical and tape resources must not be available to client IBM i partitions. How can these resources be made unavailable to the client partitions?

A) Secure the device descriptions on the hosting partition with an authorization list.
B) Specify the devices to be unavailable in the Network Server Description.
C) Specify only the devices to be available in the Network Server Description.
D) Remove the unneeded hardware from the hosted partition's profile on the HM

4. A client IBM i partition, with multipath SAN disk provided by dual VIO Servers, has used most of its available storage. Extra disk storage is required.
Several spare LUN5 (hdisks) are already mapped to the VIO Servers.
The administrator runs identical commands on the VIO Servers to create the bridging devices to define the two new LUNs to the client partition.
SST on the IBM i partition shows 4 new1 unconfigured disks.
Which statement explains why4 disks appeared, instead of 2?

A) Four disks will show until configured as multipath.
B) The LUNs were incorrectly mapped on theVIOservers.
C) The disks were not identified as multipath on the VIO Servers.
D) Four disks will show until mirroring is started in IBM i.

5. An administrator is setting up a Power 720 with VIO Server, using Integrated Virtualization Manager (IVM). IBM i will be in LPAR2. What is used to access the IBM i console during the initial setup of a client IBM i partition?

A) Telnet to the VIO Server, using port 2301.
B) Define a virtual LAN connection inVIOServerfrom IBM ito an external LAN. Use IBM i LAN console to provide the TCP/IP configuration for the console.
C) Using IBM i Access 7.1 or later, connect to HMC port 2 on the CEO using TCP/IP port 2302.
D) Sign on to VIO Server using SSH Run the command: mkvterm hscroot@LPAR2
