Free Practice Questions for IBM C1000-082 Exam

According to IBM Spectrum Protect V8.1.9 documentation1, a system administrator has the highest level of authority in IBM Spectrum Protect. A system administrator can issue any administrative command and has authority to grant or revoke privileges for other administrators.

The privilege class for a system administrator is SYstem1. The other privilege classes such as root, administrator, or superuser are not valid for IBM Spectrum Protect.

In IBM Spectrum Protect (formerly known as Tivoli Storage Manager), the system privilege class can perform all administrative functions. The system privilege class includes the following permissions:

SYSOP: System operations

AUDIT: Auditing operations

SECURITY: Security operations

NODEADDP: Add nodes

NODEDELP: Delete nodes

MGMTCLAS: Management class operations

DEVCLASS: Device class operations

STGPOOL: Storage pool operations

LIBRARY: Library operations

QUERY: Query operations

BACKUP: Backup and archive operations

RESTORE: Restore operations

ARCHIVE: Archive operations

RESTOREVM: Restore virtual machine operations

PROXY: Proxy operations

According to IBM documentation1, Windows system state objects can be backed up by using the BACKUP SYSTEMSTATE command. This command creates a backup of system state data that includes registry files, COM+ class registration database, system files under Windows File Protection, Active Directory directory service (for domain controllers only), Sysvol directory share (for domain controllers only), Certificate Services database (for certification authority only), Cluster database (for cluster nodes only), and NTDS.DIT file (the Active Directory database).

According to the IBM Spectrum Protect documentation1, the action that must be done after defining a storage tiering rule to begin tiering data from directory-container pool to tape is C. execute the rule. This action can be done by using the START STGRULE command or by clicking Run Now in the Operations Center1. This action will start processing the storage tiering rule immediately without waiting for its scheduled start time1.

 "to report an alert whenever a server issues a specific error message." This information can be found in the first search result [1], which explains that defining an alert trigger allows you to specify a specific condition that, when met, will cause an alert to be generated. The example given is when a specific error message is issued by the server. This alert can help administrators quickly identify and address issues with the server.

According to the IBM documentation, the purpose of defining an alert trigger in IBM Spectrum Protect (formerly known as Tivoli Storage Manager) is to report an alert whenever a server issues a specific error message or warning message. This alert can be sent to a specific user or group of users via email, pager, or other notification methods, allowing them to take appropriate action to resolve the issue.

According to the IBM Spectrum Protect documentation1, server-side deduplication is a process that eliminates duplicate data blocks on the server during backup operations.

Therefore, two items that should be examined for optimal performance prior to implementing server-side deduplication on a large IBM Spectrum Protect server are:

the storage for the database provides sufficient IOPS. Use a high-performance disk for the IBM Spectrum Protect database. At a minimum, use 10,000 rpm drives for smaller databases that are 200 GB or less1.

the server has sufficient memory. The amount of memory that is required depends on several factors, such as the number of concurrent sessions, the size of data blocks, and the deduplication ratio1.

According to the web search results, the best answer is C. compare the policies on the source and target replication servers. This command is used to verify that the policies on the target replication server match those on the source replication server1.

According to the IBM Spectrum Protect V8.1.9 documentation, the dsmsched.log file is the default client file that contains error logs for scheduled client backups. This file is located in the directory where the Spectrum Protect client is installed.

The dsmsched.log file contains detailed information about scheduled client backups, including any error messages that may have occurred during the backup. This file is a useful tool for troubleshooting issues with client backups.

According to the IBM Spectrum Protect documentation1, the command that is used to replicate directory-container data to a target server is A. REPLICATE STGPOOL. This command replicates data from a source storage pool to a target storage pool on another server. The source storage pool can be a directory-container storage pool, which stores data in deduplicated containers.

According to the IBM Documentation1, three required components of an IBM Spectrum Protect server are:

Database: The database stores information about server operations, client nodes, storage pools, backup data, and other server-related data. The database is essential for server operation and recovery.

Active log: The active log records changes to the database that occur during normal server operation. The active log is used to recover the database after a system failure or a planned shutdown.

Instance directory: The instance directory contains configuration files, license files, security files, and other files that are specific to a server instance. The instance directory is also used to store temporary files during server operation.
