IBM Virtualization Technical Support for AIX and Linux - v2 - C4040-109 Exam Practice Test
A Power Systems server has two HMCs connected to its Flexible Service Processor (FSP). It is decided to upgrade one of them to a later hardware version. The 7042-CR3 is disconnected and the new 7042-CR6 is connected in its place. The new HMC successfully discovers the managed server but some operations including DLPAR are failing.
Which action will allow the managed server and HMC to establish new RMC configurations?
Which action will allow the managed server and HMC to establish new RMC configurations?

A customer is planning to migrate an existing AIX 7 environment from POWER5 hardware to POWER7. The existing deployment consists of multiple machines, each hosting many LPARs. Due to software licensing constraints, the new environment must maintain the same number of logical CPUs. The pmcycles command reports the following on an LPAR on the POWER5 environment:
$ pmcycles -m CPU 0 runs at 2198 MHz CPU 1 runs at 2198 MHz CPU 2 runs at 2198 MHz CPU 3 runs at 2198 MHz CPU 4 runs at 2198 MHz CPU 5 runs at 2198 MHz CPU 6 runs at 2198 MHz CPU 7 runs at 2198 MHz
How many virtual CPUs should be assigned to the destination LPAR on the POWER7 environment?
$ pmcycles -m CPU 0 runs at 2198 MHz CPU 1 runs at 2198 MHz CPU 2 runs at 2198 MHz CPU 3 runs at 2198 MHz CPU 4 runs at 2198 MHz CPU 5 runs at 2198 MHz CPU 6 runs at 2198 MHz CPU 7 runs at 2198 MHz
How many virtual CPUs should be assigned to the destination LPAR on the POWER7 environment?

An architect has been given the task of incorporating some new Power Systems servers running AIX 7 into an existing data center which is supported by a legacy SAN.
The new servers will need to be connected to the SAN, and the LPARs on the servers will each have access to a Fibre Channel Tape using virtualized devices.
Which action will the architect need to take?
