IBM Assessment: IBM WebSphere Process Server V7.0, Deployment Sample Questions:

1. A customer new to WebSphere Process Server has promoted some Java developers to the WebSphere Integration Developer team. The developers want to monitor the use of some of the non-technology adapters (e.g., SAP and JD Edwards). The developers have started to design a database schema to persist the metrics and develop Java code to track the adapter usage. What should the deployment professional suggest to the WebSphere Integration Developer team?

A) Add a data element in the Business Objects to track start and stop times.
B) Ensure the Java code connects to the database using a JNDI entry.
C) Use the adapter monitoring provided by PMI and do not develop the Java code or the database.
D) Ensure the Java code stores time in Universal Standard time, not local time.

2. A company has deployed new applications using relationships to correlate external Enterprise Information System (EIS) specific data. The memory consumption of the server increased since the new applications have been deployed and reached a critical value. Which of the following is the BEST approach for a deployment professional to address the problem?

A) Tune the relationship service database to improve query performance and reduce the memory footprint for caching.
B) Uninstall the Relationship Manager application to avoid unnecessary queries for relationships.
C) Decrease the value of the relationship services Query Block Size parameter and monitor the system.
D) Configure the relationship service on a dedicated server to control the memory consumption using the JVM settings.

3. Which one of the following messages tells the deployment professional that a business module named yApp?has deployed successfully and isWhich one of the following messages tells the deployment professional that a business module named ?yApp?has deployed successfully and is running?

A) CWSCA3009I: The SCA module "MyAppApp" is starting.
B) WSVR0221I: Application started: MyAppApp
C) ADMA7021I: Distribution of application MyAppApp completed successfully.
D) WSVR0200I: Starting application: MyAppApp

4. A business integration application makes use of a non-interruptible business process which is invoked synchronously to update a backend SAP application and a data warehouse deployed on the DB2 database. Under peak loads, the business process performs poorly. The deployment professional is approached to fine tune the resources for better performance. What should be the appropriate tuning settings?

A) Increase the Java heap size but keep it low enough to avoid heap swapping.
B) Increase the number of connections in the connection pool of the JDBC data source to connect to DB2 database.
C) Replace the DB2 database data store for the business process with file store.
D) Reduce the number of transaction boundaries within the business process and try to use parallel execution paths.
E) Increase the sib.msgstore.discardableDataBufferSize default value to hold the data for which the quality of service attribute is best effort non-persistent of the business process.

5. A deployment professional is asked to investigate a failure in a business process. However, the specific process instance being investigated is still running. After close examination, one of the activities of the process instance is stopped. What action should the deployment professional take to resolve this issue so that the current process navigation can continue?

A) Set the expiration for the stopped activity so that after a specified interval the activity terminates and the process can continue.
B) Examine the variables of the stopped activity and update the values as necessary, and save the settings.
C) Change Continue On Error setting of the process template to no but make sure this setting is overridden at the activity scope to a value of yes.
D) Change Continue On Error setting of the process template to yes and ensure this setting is inherited at the activity scope.
