IBM A2180-608 Exam : Assessment: IBM WebSphere Process Server V7.0, Deployment

A highly available WebSphere Process Server clustered environment comprises of cluster1 with two members, clusterMemberA and clusterMemberB. cluster1 has been added as a member of a bus. The two cluster members host a message producer application, App1, and a message consumer application App2 which needs to consume messages produced by App1. App2 must receive messages in a sequential manner maintaining the order of message delivery. During peak load, the clusterMemberA is most active taking significant performance impact while clusterMemberB is almost idle and is only experiencing about 25% of the overall activity. Identify the steps the deployment professional should take to reconfigure the messaging infrastructure so that the load is balanced more evenly among both cluster members of cluster1.

• A. Create a secondary two member cluster cluster2 with messaging only capabilities. Add cluster2 as a bus member and detach the cluster1 from the bus.
• B. Create an additional messaging engine on cluster1 so that each cluster member hosts an active messaging engine for an even load distribution.
• C. Create another server with messaging only capabilities. Add this server as a bus member and detach the cluster1 from the bus.
• D. Create a secondary two member cluster cluster2 with messaging only capabilities. Add cluster2 as a bus member and create an additional active message engine on cluster2 and detach cluster1 from the bus .

A deployment professional is asked to clean up several failed events that belong to a long running business process in a clustered WebSphere Process Server environment. These failed events were created as a result of an identified outage of the backend database. Several instances of this business process were created during this outage and have been deleted. What corrective action should the deployment professional take to clean up these failed events?

• A. Find the events in the Failed Event Manager that belong to the Business Flow Manager hold queue and replay the Hold queue messages.
• B. Create a custom program and use the queryFailedEvents method of the FailedEventManager interface to query all the events associated with this business process, and use the discardFailedEvents method.
• C. Use the configRecoveryForCluster command to specify a cluster, that is configured to manage failed events.
• D. Create a custom program and use the Business Flow Manager API queryHldQueueMessage to query all the events and deleteHldQueueMessage to discard the failed events.

The deployment professional is performing the WebSphere Process Server 7.0 installation through user wpsadmin on AIX. The installation is failing. Which log should be referred to first?

• A. \home\wpsadmin\waslogs\log.txt
• B. install_root\logs\launchpad_import.txt
• C. install_root\logs\install\log.txt
• D. install_root\logs\wbi\install\installconfig_server.log

A deployment professional is mentoring new members of a team, UserA, UserB, UserC, UserD. Based on their skill set and experience, the deployment professional gave them the following roles in the Integrated Solutions Console (ISC). UserA: Administrator UserB: Operator UserC: Monitor UserD: Configurator Now, there is a requirement for monitoring the WebContainer thread pool usage in production application. UserC logged in to the ISC but was not able to monitor the data. What should be the next instruction from the deployment professional?

• A. UserA will change PMI level to basic and then UserC will take readings.
• B. UserD will change PMI level to basic and then UserB will take readings.
• C. UserB will change PMI level to extended and then UserC will take readings.
• D. UserD will change PMI level to extended and then UserB will take readings.

A company wants to provide a new application prototype to any client to process their data. The intention is to start with a simple management system that provides a service to handle electronic contact requests. After a first evaluation of the solution, it is decided to use a WebSphere JCA adapter for e-Mail. The data will be processed by secured downstream SCA components once the data is sent to the adapter. What should be done to integrate the adapter solution in a secured WebSphere Process Server environment?

• A. Advise the development team to enhance the service interface to retrieve customer specific information (e.g. user name and password). Each request sent to the adapter must be authorized for processing first.
• B. Consult the e-Mail service provider regarding the communication protocol. Secure the connection between the adapter and the service provider using SSL or similar protocols.
• C. Advise the development team to configure the security identity on all components connected with the adapter. Deploy the application and map the security identity.
• D. No action is required. WebSphere JCA adapters do not provide any authentication or authorization mechanism for inbound and outbound operations.
