IBM A2180-608 Exam Syllabus Topics:

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

1. A company completed the setup of a WebSphere Process Server (WPS) pre-production environment. The environment is clustered using different physical machines and the Remote Messaging and Remote Support topology. All business integration applications passed the functional tests and the deployment professional must complete environment performance tunings. Database related operations and the memory footprint are of concern. The deployment professional has limited knowledge on performance tuning best practices. Which action should the deployment professional take?

A) Enable Performance Monitoring Infrastructure (PMI) metrics of interest and visualize collected runtime information using the Tivoli Performance Viewer (TPV).
B) Enable the verbose Garbage Collection (GC) logging for the application cluster members and analyse the log using the IBM Support Assistant (ISA) after each test run.
C) Enable the SCA observer framework using an appropriate trace setting to collect runtime information of the business applications.
D) Enable Performance Monitoring Infrastructure (PMI) metrics of interest and use the performance advisor loggings for recommended configuration changes.

2. A company has deployed Business Space for the call center department. The call center department provides many non-personalized computer terminals due to working hour shifts and rotating employees. Users needing read access complain that there is no consistent view for their pages and that the interface changes regularly. Which of the following is the BEST approach for a deployment professional to address the problem?

A) Create a Business Space page including all necessary widgets and share the page with all users by assigning the Editor security role.
B) Create a Business Space template for each user and add the respective user to the Owner security role to allow customization.
C) Create a repository and allow all users to export and re-import their customized Business Spaces.
D) Create a Business Space template including all necessary widgets and assign all users to the Viewer security role.

3. A client wants to build a clustered environment in preparation for an unknown number of business processes to be deployed to in the future. Flexibility in the systems' capability is required. The deployment professional has recommended the Remote Messaging and Remote Support topology. Which of the following explains the deployment professional's recommendation?

A) It uses multiple active messaging engines.
B) It has unlimited scalability for messaging.
C) It has the most scaling and performance tuning flexibility.
D) It uses the fewest physical servers.

4. A company needs to transform messages between its internal supply chain management and financial applications. The format of data exchanged between these two applications vary considerably. Which supporting service component would implement this requirement?

A) Business Rules
B) Relationships
C) Interface Maps
D) Mediation Flows

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