An administrator wants to enable administration of Veritas high availability from the vSphere Web Client in VMware environments. Click and drag the five (5) actions from the Action List on the left to the Configuration Process on the right in the order needed to accomplish the task.

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?

A. The cluster needs to be manually seeded using gabconfig -x on the source cluster systems.

B. The target main.cf file needs to be copied to the source cluster systems.

C. The service group configuration of the source cluster needs to be applied to the target cluster.

D. The cluster UUID from the target cluster needs to be copied to the source cluster.

Refer to the exhibit.

In a three node cluster, the orasg service group is online on one of the systems. The service group has the resources and resource dependencies shown in the exhibit. All resources are critical resources and the following service group attributes have been configured:

ManageFaults = ALL FaultPropagation = 0 AutoFailOver = 1

What is the expected behavior when the mnt2 resource fails?

A. The service group fails over to one of the other systems in the cluster.

B. The service group is taken offline and remains offline in the cluster.

C. The mnt2 resource is taken offline, all other resources remain online.

D. The mnt2 resource and all its parent resources are taken offline, the rest remain online.

Which command can an administrator run on each node to gather logs containing information on the installed software, cluster configuration, systems, logs, and related information to create a file for Veritas Technical Support analysis?

A. /var/VRTSvca/logs/logcollect

B. /opt/VRTSvca/bin/hagetcf

C. /opt/VRTSvca/bin/nodedump

D. /opt/VRTSvca/bin/haconfig -dump

Which utility should an administrator use to propagate changes made to the Solaris Zone configuration from one node to other cluster nodes?

A. hasync

B. hazoneconfigsync

C. haconfigdistribute

An administrator needs to create a new two-node cluster.

Which configuration allows the administrator to firm a cluster using Veritas InfoScale Availability?

A. different operating system vendors for the two servers that share the same big-endian or little-endian format

B. one server running Solaris x86 and the other server running Solaris SPARC

C. one server running Linux RHEL 6 and the other server running Oracle Linux 6

D. one server configured as a virtual machine and the other server configured as a physical machine
