Veritas VCS-256 - Questions & Answers

What is the primary benefit of implementing the Intelligent Monitoring Framework feature for resources?

As part of the consolidation efforts in a data center, the administrator decides to merge two two-node Veritas Cluster Server (VCS) clusters into a four-node VCS cluster. The source and target clusters are on the same networks for LLT communication. The administrator performs the following tasks as preparation for the merge while both clusters are still running:

modifies /etc/llttab files on the source cluster systems so the cluster ID is changed to the cluster ID of the target cluster modifies /etc/llthosts files on all systems to include the four nodes modifies /etc/gabtab files on all systems to require the four systems to seed ensures the source cluster systems can see the fencing disks used by the target cluster copies the fencing configuration files from the target cluster systems to the source cluster systems adds the source cluster systems to the target cluster configuration using the hasys -add command

After the preparation is complete, the administrator stops the source cluster leaving the applications running, then stops the whole communication stack and restarts it in the correct order. When the administrator attempts to start the cluster again on the source cluster systems, they fail to join the four-node cluster.

Which preparation step that the administrator failed to perform is preventing the source cluster systems from joining the four-node cluster?

An administrator needs to set up a three-node cluster with the following characteristics:

The cluster manages an application that depends on a database.
The application and database can be online on the same or a different node.
If the database faults, the application must continue to be online.

Which type of service group dependency should be created to ensure this behavior?

An administrator wants to make a single instance Oracle database highly available and take advantage of Veritas Cluster File System.

Which solution should the administrator deploy?

The administrator of a four-node Veritas cluster has configured notifications as highly available for all notification methods.

How many notification manager resources are running when all nodes are considered?

Which log can an administrator review to determine why a resource failed to come online?

An administrator wants to configure a custom event trigger to be invoked when the online script fails to execute and ManageFaults = NONE.

Which trigger should the administrator configure?

Which category of resources is considered by Veritas Cloud Server when determining whether a service group is online?

An administrator is evaluating the suitability of an application to be clustered using Veritas InfoScale Availability.

Which condition prevents the application from being made highly available?
