Oracle SPARC M6-32 and SPARC M5-32 Servers Installation Essentials Sample Questions:
Question 1
Which three options are architectural features that you find in the SPARC M5-32 processor?
A. 16x S3 cores of 3.6 Ghz
B. 16-way 256 KB L2$
C. 2x memory controllers
D. Shared 48 MB L3$
E. 2x PCI-e Gen3 root complex
Question 2
Which three statements are correct descriptions of SPARC M5-32 server design? (DCU = Domain Configuration Unit, CMU = CPU Memory Board Unit, IOU = I/O Switch Board)
A. In a DCU that has 2x CMU, each CMU has 2x CPU, and each CPU has two PCIe root complexes; so you can access only eight PCIe slots (that is, 2x2x2) in that IOU.
B. In a DCU that has 4x CMU, CMUO and CMU1 are connected to IOBO, and also linked to PCIe 1-8,but root complexes can work as fail over partners for high availability (the same applies to cmiw and CMU3 that connect to IOB1).
C. EMS modules also need a PCIe root complex to control.
D. In a DCU that has 2x CMU, installing in slots 0 and 1 is invalid.
E. In a DCU that has 2x CMU, you need to install in position CMUO and CMU3 so that the root complexes of the two CPUs on CMUO can connect to IOBO and link to PCIe slots 1-8; and CMU3 can connect to IOB1 and link to PCIe slot9-l6.
Question 3
A customer wants you to create a user account for a night-shift employee to be able to monitor the system but do nothing else. Which privilege do you assign to this user?
A. read-only operator (o)
B. user (u)
C. console (c)
D. administrator (a)
Question 4
While planning for the installation of a SPARC M5-32 server, you notice that a more recent version of a patch is available than what is currently on the EIS-DVD. According to the Enterprise Installation Standard (EIS) methodology, what should you do?
A. Do not install the patch unless instructed to do so by an EIS Alert.
B. Never install patches outside of the EIS- DV
C. Delay installation until the updated patch is published to the EIS-DVD.
D. Always install the most recent version of patch.
Question 5
There, unbounded PDoms and bounded PDoms on a SPARC M5-32 mm. which three statements are correct?
A. Unbounded PDoms are expandable beyond 8x M5 CPUs; and SSB stores L3$ directory for fasterlookup.
B. Bounded PDoms have lower latency, and loss of any SSB has no effect.
C. Both an unbounded and a bounded PDom operate like an independent server that has full hardware isolation from other PDoms on the server.
D. Bounded PDoms have lower latency. You can form a bounded PDom with I6x M5 CPUs, by combining 2x DCU.
E. A PDom can be dynamically switched between bounded and unbounded.
