When installing IBM WebSphere Application Server on a network file system, IBM Installation Manager fails with an insufficient disk space error.
How could this be resolved?
A. Increase disk space and try again.
B. Delete temporary files and try again.
C. Reboot operating system and try again.
D. Disable disk space checking in the config.ini and try again.
Answer: D
Explanation/Reference:
On some network file systems, disk space might not be reported correctly at times; and you might need to bypass disk-space checking and proceed with your installation.
To disable disk-space checking, specify the following system property in the config.ini file in IM_install_root/eclipse/configuration and restart Installation Manager.

How can an administrator configure Web services security?
A. Customize WS-Security policy set and bindings and attach to Web services.
B. Configure global security with LDAP authentication and map the configuration to Web services.
C. Request application developer to use Web Services Security API to achieve Web services security.
D. Enable the Web Services Metadata Exchange (WS-MetadataExchange) protocol to enable message- level security.
Answer: C
Explanation/Reference:
The Web Services Security specification provides a flexible framework for building secure web services to implement message content integrity and confidentiality. The Web Services Security service programming model supports this flexible framework by providing extension points to integrate new token formats, and methods to obtains keys needed for message protection. The application server programming model provides Web Services Security programming application programming interfaces (WSS API) for securing SOAP messages.
Note: WS-Security is a message-level standard that is based on securing SOAP messages through XML digital signature, confidentiality through XML encryption, and credential propagation through security tokens. The Web services security specification defines the facilities for protecting the integrity and confidentiality of a message and provides mechanisms for associating security-related claims with the message.

Which type of fix would typically be downloaded to address a specific problem?
A. Interim fix
B. Cumulative fix
C. Product fix pack
D. Cumulative interim fix
Answer: A
Explanation/Reference:
A WebSphere Commerce interim fix (iFix) is a software patch that contains fixes for one or more APARs. A WebSphere Commerce cumulative iFix is a comprehensive collection of interim fixes for a specific release.
Both types of fixes are installed with the WebSphere Commerce Update Installer (UPDI).
Note: An Authorized Program Analysis Report, or APAR, is a formal report from IBM development to customers that have notified IBM of a problem or suspected defect. If IBM development is able to confirm the existence of the issue they will create an APAR with any known work around and perhaps an indication of which future release, if any, of the IBM program they intend to target for a formal fix to the defect and whether or not a Program Temporary Fix (PTF) is planned. The APAR will then be published so that it is visible to supported customers.

NEW QUESTION NO: 20
In an IBM WebSphere Application Server cluster, an administrator notices EJB requests are not evenly distributed on the cluster members during the load test.
What two things can the administrator verify in order to identify and resolve the issue? (Select two.)
A. Ensure Dynamic Workload Management is enabled.
B. Ensure host scoped routing optimization is enabled.
C. Ensure PMI Workload Management counters are enabled.
D. Ensure each server in the cluster has an equal weighted value.
E. Ensure the Web server plug-in is using the round robin algorithm.
Answer: A,D
Explanation/Reference:
A: Workload management optimizes the distribution of client processing tasks. Incoming work requests are distributed to the application servers, enterprise beans, servlets, and other objects that can most effectively process the requests.
D: The server weighted round robin routing policy ensures a balanced routing distribution based on the set of server weights that have been assigned to the members of a cluster. For example, if all servers in the cluster have the same weight, the expected distribution for the cluster is that all servers receive the same number of requests. If the weights for the servers are not equal, the distribution mechanism sends more requests to the higher weight value servers than the lower weight value servers. The policy ensures the distribution that you want, based on the weights that are assigned to the cluster members.

NEW QUESTION NO: 27
An administrator noticed that one of the servers in the core group is experiencing OutOfMemory. As a result, other servers in the core group failed to start.
What core group custom property should the administrator tune to prevent the affected server from impacting other servers in the core group?
A. IBM_CS_OOM_ACTION
B. IBM_CS_DATASTACK_MEG
C. IBM_CS_WIRE_FORMAT_VERSION
D. IBM_CS_HAM_PROTOCOL_VERSION
Answer: A
Explanation/Reference:
IBM_CS_OOM_ACTION
Use this custom property to explicitly enable exception handlers that are specific for OutOfMemoryExceptions that occur when sending or receiving network messages. When this property is set to Isolate, if an OutOfMemoryException occurs when a network message is being sent or received, these exception handlers stop High Availability Manager communications to the Out of Memory process.
If IBM_CS_OOM_ACTION=Isolate is not added to the configuration settings for a core group, if a core group process runs out of memory, the Out of memory process might not be able to respond to all messages. This situation prevents multi-step protocols from completing, and prevents the starting server from receiving its initial view of the distributed state.
