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

1. A retail company has the requirement to make frequent changes to a long running MyProcessDiscount business process as newer versions of that process are introduced due to changing business needs. What approach should a deployment professional adopt to meet this requirement?

A) Stop the older version of the MyProcessDiscount process template from the Integrated Solutions Console (ISC), install the application containing the newer version of the business process template.
B) Install the application containing the newer version of MyProcessDiscount process template, then using the Business Process Choreographer Explorer, monitor the state of the running process instances and, when execution is in the appropriate place in the flow of the business process, select the business process instances based on the older template only to migrate to the newer version.
C) Use the Business Process Choreographer Explorer, if you see any running instances of older version of MyProcessDiscount process template, wait till all the instances of that version of the template are completed, then remove the older version of the business process template and install the newer version of the business process template.
D) Use the Business Process Choreographer Explorer, select all the running instances with name MyProcessDiscount business process, then choose the Migrate option to migrate all instances to the currently valid version of the business process template.

2. A scalable and highly available WebSphere Process Server environment is built using a Remote Messaging deployment environment pattern. When Common Event Infrastructure (CEI) is enabled which leverages the default messaging provider, the runtime performance degraded significantly. What are the actions a deployment professional could take to reconfigure the messaging infrastructure and modify the settings to account for the extra load caused by CEI processing?

A) Disable the Persist events to the data store property of the corresponding event groups of the events that belong to your application.
B) Configure the event service on a separate cluster and add this cluster as the bus member.
C) Modify the configuration settings of the event emitter factory profile for the CEI processing to enable the support for JMS transmission.
D) Using the default messaging configuration, set up multiple JMS queues to route events to the service integration bus queue destination cluster.CommonEventInfrastructureQueueDestination.
E) Use deployEventServiceMdb administrative command to set up more than one JMS queue to route events to the event service using the default embedded messaging configuration for event transmission.

3. A deployment professional is performing a review of the audit and logging practices being used. One of the items under review is the current level of logging configured for the Human Task Manager. The site database administrator requires that any changes made which affect the amount and type of data being stored to the database must be reviewed and approved prior to implementation. Which of the following log settings would impact the data stored to the database?

A) Common Event Infrastructure (CEI) logging
B) Failed event logging
C) Audit logging
D) Task history logging

4. Thousands of parallel business processes are running in a production environment. The database administrator monitoring the Business Process Choreographer database observes that the amount of runtime data is filling up the available space and will reach the space limits very soon. What action should the deployment professional take to address the problem?

A) Verify if the business integration applications in the environment provide different versions for
business processes.
Remove all unnecessary process templates using the deleteInvalidProcessTemplate script.
B) Review the database records and identify all work items for completed process instances.
Advise the database administrator to remove all work item records for completed process
instances.
C) Verify if process instances in the database are completed and are not needed for any reporting.
Automate the process deletion using the deleteCompletedProcessInstances script.
D) Review the status of all process instances using the Business Process Choreographer
Explorer.
Manually delete all process instances that are in completed status.

5. A deployment professional has installed WebSphere Process Server binaries on AIX 5.3 TL7 with 64 bit architecture. Now the deployment professional needs to create a cell with two managed nodes federated to the deployment manager profile. Select the option which is NOT applicable.

A) Use the Profile Management Tool to create and augment profiles.
B) Create profiles using silent option through manageprofiles script on /WPS_HOME/bin/manageprofiles.
C) Select the profile template /profileTemplate/managed.wbiserver.
D) Select the profile template /profileTemplate/dmgr.wbiserver and use manageprofiles script.
