Exam A
QUESTION 1
Consider the following commands on a newly installed system:
zfs set compression=on rpool
zfs get H o source compression rpool
What is the output of the second command?
A.
B.
C.
D.

default

local
on

Correct Answer: C
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
The zfs get command supports the -H and -o options, which are designed for scripting. You can use the -H option to omit header information and to
replace white space with the Tab character. Uniform white space allows for easily parseable data. You can use the -o option to customize the output in
the following ways:
* The literal name can be used with a comma-separated list of properties as defined in the Introducing ZFS Properties section.
* A comma-separated list of literal fields, name, value, property, and source, to be output followed by a space and an argument, which is a commaseparated list of properties.
The following example shows how to retrieve a single value by using the -H and -o options of zfs get:
# zfs get -H -o value compression tank/home
on
QUESTION 2
You want to create a ZFS file system with the following specifications:
lzjb compression enabled
Cannot consume more than 2 GB from the storage pool
Redundant data at the block level eliminated

zfs create o mountpoint=/data o compression=on o dedup=on o quota=2g /pool1/data
zfs create o mountpoint=/data o compression=on o algorithm=lzjb o deduplication=on o quota=2g /pool1/data
zfs create pool/data zfs set mountpoint=/data,quota=2g, dedup=on,compression=on /pool1/data

Correct Answer: C
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Not on compression setting:
compression=on | off | lzjb | gzip | gzip-N
Controls the compression algorithm used for this dataset. The "lzjb" compression algorithm is optimized for performance while providing decent data
compression. Setting compression to "on" uses the "lzjb" compression algorithm.
Incorrect:
Not A, Not E: Should not use commas like this.
Not B, Not D: There is no property algorithm named to this command. To specify the use of the lzjb compression command we must use
compression=lzjb.

QUESTION 6
Which option lists default checkpoints for building an image using the Distribution Constructor?
A.
B.
C.
D.

manifest-valid and ba-init


ba-arch and grub-setup
transfer-ips-install and pre-pkg-img-mod
pkg-img mod and create-usb

Correct Answer: C
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
The following list provides a brief description of each default checkpoint in the order the checkpoints are executed in most manifests.
transfer-ips-install At this checkpoint, the distribution constructor contacts the IPS publishers and adds to the image the packages that are listed in the
software_data element of the manifest.
set-ips-attributes At this checkpoint, the constructor sets the publisher to be used by the installed system. The values set by this checkpoint are not
relevant if you are building an automated installation image.
pre-pkg-img-mod At this checkpoint, the constructor imports into the image the SMF service files that were specified in the configuration element of the
manifest. Also, the constructor modifies some files to optimize the image.

QUESTION 7
Which two statements describe the capabilities of the Distribution Constructor?
A.
B.
C.
D.
E.

ISO images for use with the Automated Installer (AI) can be created.
Bootable USB images can be created for SPARC and x86 architectures.
A single installation server can be used to create ISO images, for SPARC and x86 architectures.
Checkpoints are used to pause the build, thereby allowing the running of a script to modify the resulting ISO image.
A single installation server can be used to create ISO images for Solaris 10 and Solaris 11.0 operating systems.

Correct Answer: AD
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
A: Oracle Solaris Image Types include:
x86 or SPARC ISO Image for Automated Installations The Oracle Solaris release includes the automated installer tool. The automated installer (AI) is
used to automate the installation of the Oracle Solaris OS on one or more SPARC and x86 systems over a network.
D:
* You can also create custom scripts to modify your installation image. Then, you can add checkpoints to the manifest file to run these custom scripts.
* You can use the options provided in the distro_const command to stop and restart the build process at various stages in the image-generation
process, in order to check and debug the image that is being built. This process of stopping and restarting during the build process is called
checkpointing. Checkpointing is optional. Default checkpoints are specified in each manifest file.
Incorrect:
Not B: Only for x86, not for SPARCOracle Solaris x86 LiveCD You can create an x86 ISO image that is comparable to the LiveCD image that's distributed as an Oracle Solaris release.
You can also modify the content of this ISO image by adding or removing packages. You can revise the default settings for the resulting booted
environment to create a custom ISO image or USB image.
Note: The distribution constructor creates images based on settings specified in XML files, called manifest files. The manifest files contain specifications
for the contents and parameters for the ISO images that you create using the distribution constructor. The distribution-constructor package provides
sample manifests that can be used to create a custom x86 Live Media ISO, an x86 or SPARC Automated Install ISO image, or an x86 or SPARC text
installation ISO image.
The elements in each manifest file provide preset, default values that will create the type of ISO image you need. You can manually edit these preset
elements in a manifest file to customize the resulting image. In addition, you can create custom scripts to further modify your image. Then, reference the
new scripts in the manifest file.
QUESTION 8
Your colleague is administering the company's Automated Install server and is using a custom manifest. You now plan to replace the default AI manifest
with the custom manifest. Which installadm subcommand must you use to replace the default AI manifest?

www.vceplus.com - Website designed to help IT pros advance their careers - Born to learn

A.
B.
C.
D.
E.
F.

update-service
update-manifest
set-service
create-manifest
create-service
set-manifest

Correct Answer: B
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Explain:
If you want to change the content of a manifest or script that has already been added to an install service, use the installadm update-manifest
command. Criteria, default status, and manifest_or_script_name are not changed as a result of the update.
# installadm update-manifest -n s11-x86
-f ./newregion1.xml -m region1
The create-manifest and update-manifest subcommands validate XML manifest files before adding them to the install service. AI syntactically validates
the AI manifests at client installation time. Note - If an invalid manifest is provided to a client, the automated installation aborts. To investigate the cause
of the validation failure, see the /system/volatile/install_log on the client.
QUESTION 9
You are using AI to install a now operating system. You add the following information to the AI manifest:
<configuration type="zone" name="dbzone source="http://sysA.example.com/zone_cfg/zone.cfg"/>
Which statement is true regarding the zone.cfg file?
A.
B.
C.
D.
E.

It is a text file in a zonecfg configuration format.


It is an AI manifest that specifies how the zone is to be installed.
It is an XML file in a form suitable for use as a command script file for the zonecfg command.
It is an profile with keywords that are specific for configuring a zone as part of the installation
It is an XML file that specifies the zonename, zonepath, and other zonecfg parameters.

installadm create-server n s11-sparc f /term/zone1manifest.xml m zone1manifest c zonename="zone1"

Correct Answer: B
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Install services are created with a default AI manifest, but customized manifests or derived manifests scripts (hereafter called "scripts") can be added to
an install service by using the create-manifest subcommand.

www.vceplus.com - Website designed to help IT pros advance their careers - Born to learn

* Example:
Add the new AI manifest to the appropriate AI install service, specifying criteria that define which clients should use these installation instructions.
# installadm create-manifest -n s11-x86 -f ./mem1.xml -m mem1 \ -c mem="2048-unbounded"
* Syntax
installadm create-manifest -n|--service svcname
-f|--file manifest_or_script_filename
[-m|--manifest manifest_name]
[-c|--criteria criteria=value|list|range... |
-C|--criteria-file criteriafile]
[-d|--default]
QUESTION 12
You are using the distribution constructor to build a custom text installer. You copied and modified the default test installer XML file and issued the
following command to build image:
# /usr/bin/distro_const build v /usr/share/distro_const/new-dc_ai_x86.xml
How will the checkpoints in the distribution constructor be used by this command?
A.
B.
C.
D.

The distribution constructor will create a snapshot of the data directory at a checkpoint and report errors the log file until completed.
The distribution constructor will stop at each checkpoint until you issue a distro_const restart command.
The distribution constructor will not use checkpoints without the correct CLI option added to the command.
The distribution constructor will stop at a checkpoint only if an error is encountered during the image build.

Correct Answer: C
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Only verbose mode is selected (-v) not checkpoints options.
* You can use the options provided in the distro_const command to stop and restart the build process at various stages in the image-generation process
in order to check and debug the image that is being built. This process of stopping and restarting during the build process is called checkpointing.
Checkpointing is optional.
Note:
* You can use the options provided in the distro_const command to stop and restart the build process at various stages in the image-generation
process, in order to check and debug your selection of files, packages, and scripts for the image that is being built. This process uses the checkpointing
options that are available in the distro_const command.

dumpadm - configure operating system crash dump
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/dumpadm [-nuy] [-c content-type] [-d dump-device] [-m mink | minm | min%] [-s savecore-dir]
[-r root-dir] [-z on | off]
The options include:
A: -d dump-device
Modify the dump configuration to use the specified dump device.
B: -s savecore-dir
Modify the dump configuration to use the specified directory to save files written by savecore.
D: -m mink | minm | min%
Create a minfree file in the current savecore directory indicating that savecore should maintain at least the specified amount of free space in the file
system where the savecore directory is located.
E: -z on | off
Modify the dump configuration to control the operation of savecore on reboot. The options are on, to enable saving core files in a compressed format,
and off, to automatically uncompress the crash dump file. The default is on, because crash dump files can be very large and require less file system
space if saved in a compressed format.
QUESTION 26

The minfree value can be to protect a percentage of available disk space.


The default size of the dump device is configurable.
You can use one ZFS volume for both swap and dump.
You can set quota on a ZFS dump device.
When set on the dump device, the minfree value sets the total size of the dump device to be a percentage of the total size of the root pool.

Correct Answer: A
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
See % below.
coredump parameter: -m mink | minm | min%
Create a minfree file in the current savecore directory indicating that savecore should maintain at least the specified amount of free space in the file
system where the savecore directory is located. The min argument can be one of the following:
k
A positive integer suffixed with the unit k specifying kilobytes.
m
A positive integer suffixed with the unit m specifying megabytes.
%
A % symbol, indicating that the minfree value should be computed as the specified percentage of the total current size of the file system containing the
savecore directory.
The savecore command will consult the minfree file, if present, prior to writing the dump files. If the size of these files would decrease the amount of free
disk space below the minfree threshold, no dump files are written and an error message is logged. The administrator should immediately clean up the
savecore directory to provide adequate free space, and re-execute the savecore command manually. The administrator can also specify an alternate
directory on the savecore command-line.
Incorrect:
Not C: Separate ZFS volumes must be used for the swap area and dump devices.

There is a valid SMF manifest located underneath the /var/svc/manifest directory. Which four methods can be used to add it to the services repository?
A.
B.
C.
D.
E.

Reboot the system.


Restart the early-manifest-import service.
Use the svccfg apply command.
Restart the manifest-import service.
Use the svccfg import command.

Correct Answer: ACDE


Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
AD: Manifests from the standard directory trees /lib/svc/manifest and /var/svc/manifest are processed during system boot and anytime an administrator
or program runs:
$ svcadm restart manifest-import
C: svccfg
apply subcommand
If the argument is a service profile or manifest, apply the configuration to the admin layer of the SMF repository. Services, instances, property groups,
and properties will be created as necessary.
E: import [-V] [file | directory]
svccfg import on a file in a system-managed filesystem location (subdirectories of /lib/svc/manifest and /var/svc/manifest) invokes: svcadm restart
manifest-import.

www.vceplus.com - Website designed to help IT pros advance their careers - Born to learn

Placing your manifests in a system-managed location and invoking svcadm restart manifest-import to import them is the recommended practice.
svccfg import on files in other locations imports their properties as administrative customization into the admin layer. It is equivalent to:
svccfg apply [file | directory]
Incorrect:
not B: Manifests are processed in two different phases during boot.
The service svc:/system/early-manifest-import:default, a pseudo service, is responsible for the first manifest processing. This service processes only
manifests from the /lib/svc/manifest directory tree before svc.startd(1M) initializes any services thus enabling services delivered in /lib/svc/manifest to
always start with their most updated definition. Since this is a pseudo service, svcadm(1M) commands are ignored though svcs(1) can be used to
observe status and get log file information.
The svc:/system/manifest-import:default service handles the second manifest processing and imports manifest files from both /lib/svc/manifest and /var/
svc/manifest directory trees, in that respective order.
QUESTION 29
What is the purpose of the Service Management Facility (SMF) profiles?
A.
B.
C.
D.

an XML file that describes current services and the instances


allows the customization of services and instances
stores configuration information about each service instance
used to start and stop processes or services

Correct Answer: B
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Profiles are, in many ways, similar to manifests in that they use the same XML DTD. However, instead of providing information about a service, its
dependencies, and methods, a profile is used to provide customization of a service or an instance of a service. Customizations include whether an
instance of a service should be enabled or disabled and any modifications to service configuration properties.
Incorrect:
Not A: Manifests (not profiles) are used to describe services and instances of a service, including any property groups and properties they might have.

Refer to step 3 below.
After a typical software installation, there can be a half dozen or more processes that need to be started and stopped during system startup and
shutdown. In addition, these processes may depend on each other and may need to be monitored and restarted if they fail. For each process, these are
the logical steps that need to be done to incorporate these as services in SMF:
1.Create a service manifest file.
2.Create a methods script file to define the start, stop, and restart methods for the service. 3.Validate and import the service manifest using svccfg(1M).
4.Enable or start the service using svcadm(1M).
5.Verify the service is running using svcs(1).

Your company wants to incorporate a legacy script that runs once during the boot cycle as an SMF service. What appropriate setting for the duration
attribute in the startd property group for this service?
A.
B.
C.
D.

transient
contract
wait
boot

Correct Answer: A
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Example:
The default service model is contract, but may be modified. For this example, we are going to start the service with svc.startd. As a transient service, it
will be started once and not restarted by adding the following lines to the manifest:
<property_group name='startd' type='framework'>
<propval name='duration' type='astring' value='transient' />
</property_group>
Note:
svc.startd provides three models of service, which are
* Transient services--These are often configuration services, which require no long-running processes to provide service. Common transient services
take care of boot-time cleanup or load configuration properties into the kernel. Transient services are also sometimes used to overcome difficulties in
conforming to the method requirements for contract or wait services. This is not recommended and should be considered a stopgap measure.
* Contract services--These are the standard system daemons. They require processes which run forever once started to provide service. Death of all
processes in a contract service is considered a service error, which will cause the service to restart.
* Wait services--These services run for the lifetime of the child process, and are restarted when that process exits.

How to Create a Virtual Network Interface
This procedure shows how to create a virtual network interface card (VNIC).
1. Create a VNIC over a datalink.
# dladm create-vnic -l link vnic
link is the name of the datalink over which the VNIC is configured.
vnic is the VNIC which you can label with a customized name as well.
2. Create a VNIC IP interface over the link.
# ipadm create-ip vnic
3. Configure the VNIC with a valid IP address.

If you are assigning a static IP address, use the following syntax:


# ipadm create-addr -T static -a address addrobj
where addrobj uses the naming format interface/user-defined-string, such as e1000g0/v4globalz.

QUESTION 71
You detected a failure of net0 in the IPMP group named ips1. The server hosting the failed NIC supports dynamic reconfiguration. Which statement is
true regarding the replacement of the hardware interface?
A.
B.
C.
D.

The NIC must be replaced with an identical physical interface card type.
The NIC will be configured after replacement with the dladm command.
The devfsadm command will be used to discover the replacement NIC.
The replacement NIC must occupy the same bus slot as the original NIC .

Correct Answer: B
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
When an underlying interface of an IPMP group fails, a typical solution would be to replace the failed interface by attaching a new NIC. RCM records the
configuration information associated with any NIC that is detached from a running system. If you replace a failed NIC with an identical NIC, then RCM
automatically configures the interface according to the persistent configurations that had been previously defined by using the ipadm command.
Incorrect:
Not A, not D: You can replace a failed NIC with a different NIC, provided that both are the same type, such as Ethernet. In this case, RCM plumbs the
new interface after it is attached. If you did not use customized link names when you first configured your interfaces, then you will have to configure the
new NIC before you can add the interface to the IPMP group. Not C: devfsadm, devfsadmd- administration command for /dev and /devices
Note:
* 1. On the system with the IPMP group configuration, assume the Primary Administrator role or become superuser.
2. Display the test address configuration
3. Remove the physical interface.
4. Replace the physical interface.

You want to configure your IPS repository server for high network bandwidth and network availability. Which two technologies are best suited for
achieving these goals?
A.

zpool disk aggregation
link load balance
link aggregation
IP multipathing

Correct Answer: DE

www.vceplus.com - Website designed to help IT pros advance their careers - Born to learn

Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
DE: Link aggregations provide high availability and higher throughput by aggregating multiple interfaces at the MAC layer. IP Multipathing (IPMP)
provides features such as higher availability at the IP layer. Both IPMP and Link Aggregation are based on the grouping of network interfaces, and some
of their features overlap, such as higher availability. These technologies are however implemented at different layers of the stack, and have different
strengths and weaknesses.
E: The IP network multipathing or IPMP is a facility provided by Solaris to provide fault-tolerance and load spreading for network interface cards (NICs).
With IPMP, two or more NICs are dedicated for each network to which the host connects.
The IPMP load spreading feature increases the machine's bandwidth by spreading the outbound load between all the cards in the same IPMP group.

- Condition under which it is activated
- Naming service to use
- Domain name
- IP Filter rules
- IPsec policy
Incorrect:
Not A: The Automatic NCP is a system-defined profile and cannot be modified by a user. It contains one Link NCU and one Interface NCU for each
physical link on the system. For this particular profile, Physical links take precedence over Wireless links when it is time to activate an NCU. This profile
changes dynamically when new links are inserted or removed from the system.

QUESTION 74
What is true regarding an IPMP group?
A.
B.
C.
D.

All underlying interfaces are physical Ethernet links.


All interfaces connect to the same switch.
It does not persist across reboots.
Testing for failover can be done using the ipadm delete-ipmp command.

Correct Answer: C
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
To make IPMP groups persists across reboots you would have to do some work:
To configure an IPMP group that persists across system reboots, you would edit the hostname configuration file of the IPMP interface to add data
addresses.
Note: The same (non-null) character string IPMP group name identifies all interfaces in the group. You can place interfaces from NICs of different
speeds within the same IPMP group, as long as the NICs are of the same type. For example, you can configure the interfaces of 100-megabit Ethernet
NICs and the interfaces of one gigabit Ethernet NICs in the same group. As another example, suppose you have two 100-megabit Ethernet NICs. You
can configure one of the interfaces down to 10 megabits and still place the two interfaces into the same IPMP group.
Incorrect:
Not A: You cannot place two interfaces of different media types into an IPMP group. For example, you cannot place an ATM interface in the same group
as an Ethernet interface. Not B: An IP multipathing group, or IPMP group, consists of one or more physical interfaces on the same system that are
configured with the same IPMP group name. All interfaces in the IPMP group must be connected to the same IP link.

You must enable transitive probing to use this failure detection method that does not require test addresses.
Note:
* ipmpstat
- display IPMP subsystem status
The ipmpstat command concisely displays information about the IPMP subsystem. The -t option identifies the probe targets that are associated with
each IP interface in an IPMP group.
* Target mode displays IPMP probe target information. The following output fields are supported:
/ INTERFACE
The IP interface name associated with the information.
/ MODE
The probe target discovery mode:
routes
Probe targets found by means of the routing table.
multicast
Probe targets found by means of multicast ICMP probes.
disabled
All probe-based failure detection is disabled.
transitive
Failure detection is by means of transitive probing, where the health of the IP interface is determined by probing other active interfaces in the group.
/ TESTADDR
The source address used in outgoing probes. Active interfaces that are being used for data traffic, as well as interfaces that have been explicitly
configured with NOFAILOVER test addresses, will have the hostname (or IP address) that is used for sending and receiving the ICMP probes. All other
interfaces in the group will display the name of the interface from which the probes are sent. Note that if an active IP interface is configured with both
IPv4 and IPv6 test addresses, probe target information will be displayed separately for each test address.
/ TARGETS
A space-separated list of probe target hostnames (or IP addresses) for ICMP probes, or target interfaces for transitive probes. The IP targets will be
listed in firing order, and, if no probe targets could be found, this field will be empty.

How to Manually Specify Target Systems for Probe-Based Failure Detection
1. Add a route to a particular host to be used as a target in probe-based failure detection. $ route -p add -host destination-IP gateway-IP -static where
destination-IP and gateway-IP are IPv4 addresses of the host to be used as a target. For example, you would type the following to specify the target
system 192.168.10.137, which is on the same subnet as the interfaces in IPMP group itops0:
$ route -p add -host 192.168.10.137 192.168.10.137 -static This new route will be automatically configured every time the system is restarted. If you
want to define only a temporary route to a target system for probe-based failure detection, then do not use the -p option.
2.Add routes to additional hosts on the network to be used as target systems.
QUESTION 78
You administer a server running a global zone with no virtual networking. Consider the following configuration:

Which is a valid IPMP configuration for this server?


A. net0 and net1 must be configured into an IPMP group, net2 can be configured into its own IPMP group, and net0 or net1 can be configured as a
standby interface.
B. net0 and net1 must be configured into one IPMP group, net2 and net3 must be configured into a second IPMP group, and all interfaces can be
configured for link detection.
C. net1 and net2 must be configured into an IPMP group, net0 can be configured into its own IPMP group, and net3 can be configured as a standby

Must be in the same network range (see * below).


Different speeds are fine (see ** below).
* An IP multipathing group, or IPMP group, consists of one or more physical interfaces on the same system that are configured with the same IPMP
group name. All interfaces in the IPMP group must be connected to the same IP link (A, not B, not C, Not D).
** The same (non-null) character string IPMP group name identifies all interfaces in the group. You can place interfaces from NICs of different speeds
within the same IPMP group, as long as the NICs are of the same type. For example, you can configure the interfaces of 100-megabit Ethernet NICs
and the interfaces of one gigabit Ethernet NICs in the same group. As another example, suppose you have two 100-megabit Ethernet NICs. You can
configure one of the interfaces down to 10 megabits and still place the two interfaces into the same IPMP group.
QUESTION 79
You added three interfaces to an IPMP group. You now want to review the failure detection modes. Which command most you use to determine if all
interfaces in the group support link-based detection?
A.
B.

Explanation:
Link-Based Failure Detection
Link-based failure detection is always enabled, provided that the interface supports this type of failure detection.
To determine whether a third-party interface supports link-based failure detection, use the ipmpstat -i command. If the output for a given interface
includes an unknown status for its LINK column, then that interface does not support link-based failure detection. Refer to the manufacturer's
documentation for more specific information about the device.

* subcommand: netcfg commit


Commits the current profile specification to persistent storage. A configuration must be correct to be committed. Therefore, this operation automatically
performs a verify operation on the profile or object as well. The commit operation is attempted automatically upon exiting the current scope by using
either the end or exit subcommand.
Note:
* from the netadm list output we see the line
ncp Automatic disabled
* Oracle Solaris 11 uses profile-based network configuration, which is comprised of two network configuration modes: manual (fixed) and automatic
(reactive). Depending on which network configuration mode you choose during an installation, either the DefaultFixed network configuration profile
(NCP) or the Automatic NCP is activated on the system. If the DefaultFixed NCP is active, the network is manually configured by using the dladm and
ipadm commands . If the Automatic NCP or a user-defined NCP that you previously created is active, the netcfg and netadm commands (formerly
nwamcfg and nwamadm) are used to create and manage network configuration.

Explanation:
* /etc/default/mpathd
Contains default values used by the in.mpathd daemon.
* By default, in.mpathd limits failure and repair detection to IP interfaces that are configured as part of a named IPMP group. Setting
TRACK_INTERFACES_ONLY_WITH_GROUPS to no enables failure and repair detection on all IP interfaces, even if they are not part of a named
IPMP group. IP interfaces that are tracked but not part of a named IPMP group are considered to be part of the "anonymous" IPMP group. In addition to
having no name, this IPMP group is special in that its IP interfaces are not equivalent and thus cannot take over for one another in the event of an IP
interface failure. That is, the anonymous IPMP group can only be used for failure and repair detection, and provides no high-availability or loadspreading

Discovering extended use of privilege that occurs when a user changes identity
* Auditing is the collecting of data about the use of system resources. The audit data provides a record of security-related system events. This data can
then be used to assign responsibility for actions that take place on a host. Successful auditing starts with two security features: identification and
authentication. At each login, after a user supplies a user name and password, a unique audit session ID is generated and associated with the user's
process. The audit session ID is inherited by every process that is started during the login session. Even if a user changes identity within a single
session, all user actions are tracked with the same audit session ID.

Correct Answer: CDE


Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
C: You can use the scheduling-class property in zonecfg to set the scheduling class for the zone.
D: When you explicitly set the cpu-shares property, the fair share scheduler (FSS) will be used as the scheduling class for that zone. However, the
preferred way to use FSS in this case is to set FSS to be the system default scheduling class with the dispadmin command. That way, all zones will
benefit from getting a fair share of the system CPU resources. If cpu-shares is not set for a zone, the zone will use the system default scheduling class.
E: You can set the scheduling class for a zone through the resource pools facility. If the zone is associated with a pool that has its pool.scheduler
property set to a valid scheduling class, then processes running in the zone run in that scheduling class by default.

QUESTION 105
www.vceplus.com - Website designed to help IT pros advance their careers - Born to learn

Which scheduling class distributes CPU resources among its processes based on assigned importance?
A.
B.
C.
D.

Fair Share Scheduler (FSS)


Real-Time (RT)
Fixed-priority (FX)
Timesharing (TS)

Correct Answer: C
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
The FX scheduler provides a scheduling policy for processes that require user or application control of scheduling priorities. The priorities of processes
that run under FX are fixed.
The FX class provides a fixed-priority preemptive scheduling policy. This policy is used by processes that require user or application control of
scheduling priorities but are not dynamically adjusted by the system. By default, the FX class has the same priority range as the TS, IA, and FSS
classes. The FX class allows user or application control of scheduling priorities through user priority values assigned to processes within the class.
These user priority values determine the scheduling priority of a fixed- priority process relative to other processes within its class.
Incorrect:
Not A: The fair share scheduling class enables you to allocate CPU time based on shares instead of the priority scheme of the timesharing (TS)
scheduling class. Not D: The goal of the time-sharing policy is to provide good response time to interactive processes and good throughput to CPUbound processes. The scheduler switches CPU allocation often enough to provide good response time, but not so often that the system spends too
much time on switching. Time slices are typically a few hundred milliseconds.
The time-sharing policy changes priorities dynamically and assigns time slices of different lengths.
QUESTION 106

* Scheduling Class on a System with Zones Installed
Non-global zones use the default scheduling class for the system. If the system is updated with a new default scheduling class setting, non-global zones
obtain the new setting when booted or rebooted. The preferred way to use FSS in this case is to set FSS to be the system default scheduling class with
the dispadmin command.

QUESTION 108
You administer a system with three nonglobal zones. All three-zones (z1, z2, and z3) use a common resource pool. The pool is a fixed, two-CPU
configuration. The default scheduler is FSS.
Zones z1 and z2 run applications that, over time, consume all available CPU resources. You have allotted 20 shares each to these zones. Zone z3 runs
a mission-critical application, so you allotted it 60 shares.
Because of application maintenance, zone z3 is currently using about 10% of the CPU resources in the shared pool. Which option describes the
demand when available CPU resources are consumed by zones z1 and z2?
A. Zones z1 and z2 will consume CPU resources until each zone consumes approximately 20% of the CPU resources, and only then they will be
constrained.
B. Zones z1 and z2 will consume CPU resources until each zone consumes approximately 60% of the CPU resources, and only then they will be
constrained.

Explanation:
* Use the zfs holds command to display a list of held snapshots.
* Holding a snapshot prevents it from being destroyed (B). In addition, this feature allows a snapshot with clones to be deleted pending the removal of
the last clone by using the zfs destroy -d command. Each snapshot has an associated user-reference count, which is initialized to zero. This count
increases by one whenever a hold is put on a snapshot and decreases by one whenever a hold is released.
Note:
* Example:
# zfs holds tank/home@now
NAME TAG TIMESTAMP
tank/home@now keep Thu Jul 15 11:25:39 2010
* You can use the zfs release command to release a hold on a snapshot or set of snapshots. If the snapshot is released, the snapshot can be destroyed
by using the zfs destroy command.
* Two new properties identify snapshot hold information:
The defer_destroy property is on if the snapshot has been marked for deferred destruction by using the zfs destroy -d command. Otherwise, the
property is off.
The userrefs property is set to the number of holds on this snapshot, also referred to as the user- reference count.

QUESTION 117
You must configure your server to use IPMP with probe based failure detection enabled. Which statement is a valid constraint or feature that applies to
this requirement?
A.
B.
C.
D.

Link-based detection is supported only on Generic Lan Driver version 2 (GLDv2)-complaint NICs.
GLDv2 NICs are not supported in Oracle Solaris 11.
GLDv3 NICs configured for link based detection by default.
You must first disable link based detection before configuring probe-based failure detection.

Correct Answer: C
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Network drivers that support link-based failure detection monitor the interface's link state and notify the networking subsystem when that link state
changes.
Incorrect:
Not B: GLDv2 is a multi-threaded, clonable, loadable kernel module that provides support to device drivers for local area networks. Local area network
(LAN) device drivers in the Solaris OS are STREAMS-based drivers that use the Data Link Provider Interface (DLPI) to communicate with network
protocol stacks.
Not D: Link-based failure detection is always enabled, provided that the interface supports this type of failure detection.
You cannot disable link-based failure detection if this method is supported by the NIC driver.
Note:
* To write a network driver for the Oracle Solaris OS, use the Solaris Generic LAN Driver (GLD) framework.
/ For new Ethernet drivers, use the GLDv3 framework.
/ To maintain older Ethernet, Token Ring, or FDDI drivers, use the GLDv2 framework.

* To ensure continuous availability of the network to send or receive traffic, IPMP performs failure detection on the IPMP group's underlying IP
interfaces. Failed interfaces remain unusable until they are repaired. Remaining active interfaces continue to function while any existing standby
interfaces are deployed as needed.

/ Probe-based failure detection, of two types:
No test addresses are configured (transitive probing).
Test addresses are configured.
/ Link-based failure detection, if supported by the NIC driver

A.
B.
C.
D.

the nfsmapid_domain parameter in the mapid SMF service.


the nfsmapid_domain parameter in the /etc/default/nfs file
the domain name in the /etc/default/domainname file, if it exists.
a_nfsv4idmapdomain TXT record found by the configured domain name servers

Correct Answer: A
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
See 1 below.
Precedence Rules
For nfsmapid to work properly, NFS version 4 clients and servers must have the same domain. To ensure matching NFS version 4 domains, nfsmapid
follows these strict precedence rules:
1. The daemon first checks the SMF repository for a value that has been assigned to the nfsmapid_domain parameter. If a value is found, the assigned
value takes precedence over any other settings. The assigned value is appended to the outbound attribute strings and is compared against inbound
attribute strings.
2. If no value has been assigned to nfsmapid_domain, then the daemon checks for a domain name from a DNS TXT RR. nfsmapid relies on directives
in the /etc/resolv.conf file that are used by the set of routines in the resolver. The resolver searches through the configured DNS servers for the
_nfsv4idmapdomain TXT RR.
3. If no DNS TXT record is configured to provide a domain name, then the nfsmapid daemon uses the value specified by the domain or search directive
in the /etc/resolv.conf file, with the directive specified last taking precedence.
4. If the /etc/resolv.conf file does not exist, nfsmapid obtains the NFS version 4 domain name by following the behavior of the domainname command.
www.vceplus.com - Website designed to help IT pros advance their careers - Born to learn

Specifically, if the /etc/defaultdomain file exists, nfsmapid uses the contents of that file for the NFS version 4 domain. If the /etc/defaultdomain file does
not exist, nfsmapid uses the domain name that is provided by the network's configured naming service.
QUESTION 119
Link aggregation and IP multipathing both offer some benefits for network performance and reliability.
Identify two correct statements.
A.
B.
C.
D.
E.

IPMP requires full duplex, point-to-point links.


A router is a single point of failure for link aggregation.
Link aggregation allows a standby interface to be automatically enabled if another interface fails.
Depending on load balancing algorithms, packets may not be balanced among all IPMP active interfaces.
Link aggregation uses additional interfaces to improve performance, without requiring additional IP address.

Correct Answer: CE
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
C: If LACP (Link Aggregation Control Protocol) cannot aggregate all the ports that are compatible (for example, the remote system might have more
restrictive hardware limitations), then all the ports that cannot be actively included in the channel are put in hot standby state and are used only if one of
the channeled ports fails.
E: Link aggregations provide high availability and higher throughput by aggregating multiple interfaces at the MAC layer. IP Multipathing (IPMP) provides
features such as higher availability at the IP layer. Both IPMP and Link Aggregation are based on the grouping of network interfaces, and some of their
features overlap, such as higher availability. These technologies are however implemented at different layers of the stack, and have different strengths
and weaknesses.
Incorrect:
Not A: MP is built into Oracle Solaris and does not require any special hardware. Any interface that is supported by Oracle Solaris can be used with
IPMP. However, IPMP does impose the following requirements on your network configuration and topology:
/All interfaces in an IPMP group must have unique MAC addresses. / All interfaces in an IPMP group must be of the same media type. / All interfaces in
an IPMP group must be on the same IP link
Not B: A switch, not a router, would be a single point of failure of link aggregation (as it works on the Mac layer and not on the IP layer.
not D: Internet Protocol Network Multipathing (IPMP) provides fault-tolerance and load balancing across multiple network interface cards. By using
IPMP, you can configure one or more interfaces into an IP multipathing group. After configuring IPMP, the system automatically monitors the interfaces
in the IPMP group for failure. If an interface in the group fails or is removed for maintenance, IPMP automatically migrates, or fails over, the failed
interface's IP addresses

QUESTION 128
Your server has a package repository that local clients access remotely. Which option manages HTTP access to the repository?
A.
B.
C.
D.

pkg set-property
pkg.depotd
pkg.repotd
pkgrepo

Correct Answer: B
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
* pkg.depotd is the depot server for the image packaging system. It provides network access to the data contained within a package repository. Clients
that do not support direct access to a repository through the file system, or for which network access is the only available or preferred method of
transport, typically use the package depot.
* Example:
Configure pkg.depotd to provide remote access. pkg.depotd provides an HTTP interface to a pkg repo. Here we are going to make the repo server
listen on port 10000, and use the repo dir we created as its default.
# svcadm disable pkg/server
# svccfg -s pkg/server setprop pkg/inst_root = /data/myrepo # svccfg -s pkg/server setprop pkg/port = 10000
# svcadm refresh pkg/server

Explanation:
* AI Server Software Requirements include:
Default router
Ensure that your AI server has a default route set by using the netstat command to show network status. If your AI server does not have a default route
set, you can set a static default route by populating the /etc/defaultrouter file with the IP address of a static default route for your server's network.
* For any currently active NCP (fixed or reactive), use the route command with the -p option to persistently add a route:
# route -p add default ip-address
Because this command applies the specified route to the currently active NCP, the default route is removed and potentially replaced, if the active NCP
changes.
Incorrect:
Not A, Not B: The svccfg command manipulates data in the service configuration repository. svccfg can be invoked interactively, with an individual
subcommand, or by specifying a command file that contains a series of subcommands.

QUESTION 132
You need to configure three zones.
Identify the correct requirement.
A. zone1 will need a VNIC to connect to a physical Ethernet link.
B. zone1 will need at least two VNICs.

www.vceplus.com - Website designed to help IT pros advance their careers - Born to learn

C. zone2 and zone3 will need a dedicated etherstub.


D. One etherstub will be necessary.
E. A flow is needed to filter HTTP requests to zone1.
Correct Answer: C
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Note:
* In Oracle Solaris 11, etherstubs and VNICs are the basic components of network virtualization.
* The VNIC connects the virtual network to the external network. The VNIC also enables the zones to communicate with one another through the virtual
switch that is automatically created with the VNIC. For a virtual network to host traffic internally between zones and with the external LAN and the
Internet, each zone must have its own interface. Therefore, you must repeat this procedure as many times as the number of zones that will belong to
the virtual network.
* Create the etherstub.
# dladm create-etherstub etherstub
Perform this step only if you are creating a private virtual network which you want to restrict from being accessed by external systems.
QUESTION 133

QUESTION 134
You want to prioritize the video streaming traffic over the HTTP server traffic. Which attribute can be used to identify the streaming video flow?
A.
B.
C.
D.

the NIC Transmit and Receive Ring


the Differentiated Service Field
the Application Port Number
IP address and TCP port

Correct Answer: B
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
* DiffServ uses the 6-bit Differentiated services Field (DS field) in the IP header for packet classification purposes.
* In the Diffserv model, the marker marks a packet with a value that reflects a forwarding behavior. Marking is the process of placing a value in the
packet's header to indicate how to forward the packet to the network. IPQoS contains two marker modules:
/ dscpmk Marks the DS field in an IP packet header with a numeric value that is called the Differentiated Services codepoint, or DSCP. A Diffservaware router can then use the DS codepoint to apply the appropriate forwarding behavior to the packet.
/ dlcosmk Marks the virtual local area network (VLAN) tag of an Ethernet frame header with a numeric value that is called the user priority. The user
priority indicates the class of service (CoS), which defines the appropriate forwarding behavior to be applied to the datagram.
Note:
* Differentiated services or DiffServ is a computer networking architecture that specifies a simple, scalable and coarse-grained mechanism for
classifying and managing network traffic and providing quality of service (QoS) on modern IP networks. DiffServ can, for example, be used to provide
low- latency to critical network traffic such as voice or streaming media while providing simple best-effort service to non-critical services such as web

traffic or file transfers.


* IPQoS, included in Solaris, includes the following modules, which are part of the Differentiated Services (Diffserv) architecture that is defined in RFC
2475:
Classifier
Meter
Marker
IPQoS adds the following enhancements to the Diffserv model:
Flow-accounting module
802.1D datagram marker

Partial output of the command zonecfg into displayed as follows:
rctl:
name: zone.cpu-shares
value: (priv=privileged,limit=20,action=none)
Upon booting the zone, you receive this warning:
WARNING: The zone.cpu-shares rctl is set but FSS is not the default scheduling class for this zone. FSS will be used for processes in the zone but to
get the full benefit of FSS, it should be the default scheduling class.
Which action resolves the issue?
A. In the global zone, run the command dispadmin d FSS.

www.vceplus.com - Website designed to help IT pros advance their careers - Born to learn

B. In the nonglobal zone, run the command dispadmin d FSS.


C. Change the zone resource control value to (priv=privileged,limit=20,action=none,default)
D. Modify the general/scheduler property in the svc:/system/zones:default service.
Correct Answer: A
Section: (none)
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
The default scheduler for Solaris uses time sharing to divide CPU time between running tasks. The fair share scheduler (FSS) uses "shares" to give
weighted prioritization to running processes based on the assigned CPU shares. You've assigned cpu-shares to the zone, but you aren't using the fair
share scheduler.
To enable the fair share scheduler as default on the system:
# dispadmin -d FSS
