A. Create or remove a logical library
B. View or change the preferred zone of an accessory
C. Disabling or changing the speed of the Ethernet link
D. Installing licensed features of the library such as capacity on demand
Which statement best describes Recovery Point Objective?
A. The maximum tolerable time it takes to restore service to all users between outage and 100% of the users back online.
B. How much data (typically measured in minutes, or seconds) the business can afford to recreate (or lose) after a disaster.
C. The maximum tolerable time to re-establish and/or restart the network between outage and the network being available again.

A customer has the requirement to store large amounts of archive data on native tape which will be accessed rarely, as well as a smaller amount of data where fast access is important. Which IBM Enterprise Tape function provides the flexibility to meet both requirements?
A. Speed Matching
B. Capacity Scaling
C. SkipSync / Virtual Backhitch
D. Media Re-Use over multiple Generations
In a TS7740 two-way grid Cluster 0 is the production site and Cluster I is the remote DR site. The scratch volume category for the production site is 0012 and DR site's scratch volume category is 0022. Before a DR test is started, several DR system updates must be in place to protect the production scratch volumes from being allocated during the test. Assuming Selective Write Protect is enabled, which of the following is one step that must be taken?
A. Update the DR TCDB volume entries to change the production volumes from 0012 to 0022
B. Update the DR system's DEVSUPxx parmlib member to use a unique scratch volume category
C. Disconnect the grid link connections to ensure production volumes are not updated in the remote cluster during the DR test
D. Run the Return To Scratch process from the DR system to ensure the production and DR system volumes are in sync and protected during a DR test
A customer is in the process of installing a two node TS7740 grid with a single production site. The second site used for DR is 50 km away. They want to set all logical volumes to have a size of 6 GB. What is a possible effect on the customer's tape workload?
A. It may increase the recall time for logical volumes
B. It may increase the amount of data stored on stacked volumes
C. It may increase the mount time for fast ready scratch volumes
D. It may increase the amount of data stored in the tape volume cache
Select two key items that are associated with the TS7700 Hardware Installation planning worksheets. (Select two)
A. Composite Library ID
B. SMS storage group name
C. Define VOLSER ranges for logical volumes
D. SMS Composite and Distributed Library Names
E. Customer IP addresses for the IP replication and Management Interface
A customer is attaching a TS7740 with six TS1140 drives to an existing TS3500 which is used for open systems. The new tape drives and switches will be installed in an existing D23 frame with two TS113O drives installed. What significant change does the customer need to be aware of with this installation?
A. The existing TS1130 drives will need to be upgraded to TS1140
B. The TS3500 will need an additional enhanced frame control assembly (FC 1451)
C. The TS1 130 drives will have to be removed and installed in another frame of the TS3500
D. The power requirements change and the power cord of the existing library frame must be upgraded
Which IBM tape solution can be shared as a Tape Backup Infrastructure for System zwith DESMSd55, System i with BRMS and Red Hat Linux with NBU'?
A. IBM Virtualization Engine TS7740
B. IBM TS1140 with 007 Tape Controller
C. IBM System Storage TS3500 Tape Library
D. IBM System Storage T53310 Tape Library
Which IBM Enterprise Tape function improves drive performance and reduces start/stop operation of the tape drive especially when writing many small objects to tape?
A. Capacity Scaling
B. Built-in Compression
C. FastSync / Virtual Backhitch
D. Media Re-Use for Multiple Generations
Which of following two application workload characteristics have the greatest impact on the throughput performance of the TS7700 Virtualization Engine? (Select two)
A. File size
B. Block size
C. Read/write ratio
D. Number of tape drives utilized
E. Compression ratio
