Companycom is planning on upgrading from a pSeries S85 running AIX 4.3.3 to a p5 570 with an HMC. The new server will run AIX 5L 5.2. What should be performed prior to the migration?（）

单项选择题Companycom is considering a large partitioned p5 590 to consolidate several smaller systems in their data center. Due to the complexity of the consolidation, the customer is asking the technical support specialist to give them a report which shows pre order PCI adapter placement and validates them against IBMs recommendations. The concern is that the factory will not install the adapters in the appropriate slots as the customer pre-selected. What IBM tool is available to provide this?（）

A.LPAR Validation Tool （LVT）
B.Personal Systems Configurator （PSC）
C.IBM Configuration for eBusiness （eConfig）
D.Advanced System Management Interface （ASMI）

单项选择题Companycom wants to manage multiple partitions for a p5 590 server using Partition Load Manager (PLM). Some of the partitions are dedicated processors and some of them are shared processors. What information about PLM limitations should be expressed to the customer?（）

A.All of the partitions can be managed in one group mixing dedicated and shared processors. PLM will move resources in the group as setup in the PLM profiles. 
B.PLM handles memory, dedicated and shared processor partitions. All the partitions in a group must be of the same processor type. PLM moves I/O resources between partitions based on PLM policy files. 
C.PLM handles memory, dedicated and shared processor partitions. The policy file, once loaded, is static and has no knowledge of workload on the managed partitions. PLM is supported for partitions that are running AIX 5.2 or i5OS. 
D.All of the partitions in a group must be the same type, either all dedicated processor partitions or shared processor partitions. One PLM Server can manage multiple groups of partitions. PLM does not move resources between groups.

单项选择题Companycom informs the system administrator that there is concern about the Electronic Service Agent and security. What can be said about Electronic Service Agent that will address concerns about security?（）

A.All Service Agent transactions are inbound requests secured by encryption (cryptographic processor card) Kerberos, and Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS). 
B.The AT&T Global Network Services (AGNS ) phone connection generates system IDs and passwords for the client every six months. Service Agent has no inbound capability.
C.All Service Agent transactions are outbound requests secured by encryption (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) or POST). Service Agent has no inbound capability. 
D.The transmissions from Service Agent can be either by Internet or the AT&T Global Network Services (AGNS) phone connection. Service Agent transactions are inbound requests generated by a point to point connection.

单项选择题Companycom has a p5 590 that has their production LPAR, their Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) LPAR, and several other LPARs. What method would provide connectivity between the production LPAR, and the TSM LPAR, but be isolated from the other LPARs in the system without utilizing a Virtual IO Server or physical adapter resources?（）

A.Use shared memory and semaphores to transfer the data to the TSM LPAR
B.Provide gigabit Ethernet adapters in each LPAR and run a crossover cable
C.Create a Virtual Ethernet between the production server and the TSM LPARs
D.Create a Virtual Ethernet between the TSM server LPAR and the non-production LPARs

单项选择题Companycom tells the technical sales specialist that recent announcements state that virtual lan in the datacenter is the best option. The customer wants to use interpartition communication to save on adapters and increase performance. The systems are going to have shared and dedicated processor partitions. Some of the partitions will be running AIX 5.2 and some will be running AIX 5.3. The second p5 590 will be running a mixture of AIX 5.3 and Linux partitions with 2.6 kernel. What limitations of vlan interpartition  communication should be discussed with this customer?（）

A.Virtual Ethernet uses the system processors for all communication functions instead of offloading that load to processors on network adapter cards. Virtual Ethernet is supported on AIX 5L and Linux 2.5 and above. 
B.Virtual Ethernet can be used within groups of shared OR groups of dedicated processor partitions, but not both simultaneously. Virtual Ethernet comes with AIX 5L, and is supported in AIX 5.2 or AIX 5.3 partitions, but not Linux. 
C.Virtual Ethernet can be used in both shared and dedicated processor partitions. Virtual Ethernet can run in an AIX 5.3 or Linux 2.6 Kernel, but not AIX 5.2 partitions. Virtual Ethernet can only connect partitions within a single system. 
D.Virtual Ethernet uses the system processors for all communication functions instead of offloading that load to processors on network adapter cards. Virtual Ethernet can connect partitions between systems if the HMC is shared between systems.
