IBM Tivoli Network Manager IP Edition V3.9 Implementation Sample Questions:

1. The administrator wants to deploy IBM Tivoli Network Manager IP Edition V3.9 (ITNM) but has no X-client on the UNIX system. What should be done?

A) deploy ITNM on another sytem, make a tar file of the installation, and copy the tar file across to the server
B) ITNM cannot be deployed without an X-client
C) run the installation script using the install, sh -i console option
D) run the dedicated command line installation script consolejnstall.sh

2. During a deployment, a customer has identified location data that they would like added to both chassis and interface events from active (IBM Tivoli Network Manager IP Edition V3.9 (ITNM)) and passive (traps, syslog etc.) event sources.
This data has been successfully imported into the Discovery process using supported stitching techniques and appears in the topology as three custom Extralnfo fields (see below).
Ncpjnode1 has been configured to transfer this location data to a custom extended NCIM database table named locations (see exhibit below). This data is only held on EntityType 1 (chassis entities) to reduce the NCIM load.
The customer has identified three ObjectServer fields that they would like this data :o be added to for all suitable events-NmosGeography, NmosCountry, and NmosSite

Example record in Model Description of the ncim.locations table

The ModelNcimDb cofiguration has been modified to map:

Based on the scenario, what is the correct stitcher method to populate a record with Extralnfo > m_Geogrpahy location data and then update the NmosGeography ObjectServer field?
Assume that a chassis and locationData Records have been defined and the mainNodeld is set to the Entityld of the chassis of the in scope event.
Example:
Record chassis;
Record locationData.
text geog-'.
chassis = GwEntityData( mainNodeld);

A) NmosGeography = eval(text, '&8<Extralnfo->m_Geography'); GwEnrichEvent (NmosGeography);
B) [email protected]_Geography; @locationData.NmosGeography = geog; GwEnrichEvent(locationData);
C) [email protected]; @locationData.NmosGeography = geog. GwEnrichEvent( locationData);
D) NmosGeogrpahy = @chassis.locations.GEOGRAPHY; @locationData.NmosGeography = eval(text, '$NmosGeography'); GwEnrichEvent (locationData);

3. What can be run to verify SNMP access to a device from the IBM Tivoli Network Manager IP Edition V3.9 server?

A) ManageNode.pl
B) snmp_walk.pl
C) ncpjnib
D) ncp_d_helpserv

4. A discovery is running against 800 devices and the majority of the devices are Cisco routers and switches. The current phase of Discovery is in Phase 3 and the CiscoSwitchSnmp agent is still running. The administrator wants to know how many devices are left to be discovered. Which query returns the IP addresses left to discover?

A) select mUniqueAddress from CiscoSwitchSnmp.despatch where mUniqueAddress NOT IN ((select mUniqueAddressfrom CiscoSwitchSnmp.returns));
B) select m_IsManagementIP from translations.ipToBaseName where m_Protocol =1;
C) select Address from master.entityByName;
D) select Address from CiscoSwitchSnmp.despatch where Address NOT IN ((select Address from CiscoSwitchSnmp.returns));

5. Which restriction is in place when using a silent install mode?

A) The silent install file cannot be moved between hosts and then reused.
B) The silent install mode is only suitable for a default standard installation
C) The silent install file cannot be edited after it has been created.
D) Explanation:
QUESTIONNO: 5 A company wants to create a new drop-down list that an operator can use when creating new dynamic network views. The list will hold the customerName and customerLocation information. This information was collected during the discovery phase and addedto the model. The administrator has already extended the NCIM database with a new table called Customer which has two fields: customerName and customerLocation. The model has been configured to populate this new table. Which additional step does the administrator need to take to display the new table in the dropdown list?
A. add this table to the appropriate section in the topoviz.properties
B. modify the ncimMetaDataxml file by adding the appropriate table and data fields
C. modify the DBEntityDetails.cfg file by specifying a new drop-down list and the name of the table created in the NCIM database
D. no additional step is required as the network view configuration automatically has access to all of the tables in the NCIM database and will create a drop-down list for each and every table
E) The installation process cannot be canceled atany time
