Question 1

In planning a system's initial configuration, you realize that you may not have disk space to complete an installation that contains all of Oracle Solaris 11 software. Which installation method would be your safest bet to begin the interactive installation process?

Answer Options
Correct Answer: C
Explanation

The Live Media provides administrators with an opportunity to explore the Oracle Solaris 11.1 environment without installing it on a system. The system boots off the media directly allowing administrators to start the installer should they choose to install it to a system.

Note:

* You have several alternatives for where to install Oracle Solaris 11:

Inside a virtual machine on top of your existing operating system

On the bare metal as a standalone operating system

On the bare metal alongside your existing operating system(s) (multiboot scenario)

Question 2

Which five steps (dealing with first boot script creation) can be omitted when working with provisioning Oracle Solaris 11 Zones and services with the appropriate Zone context?

1. Create the first-boot script.

2. Create the manifest for an SMF service that runs once at first boot and executes the script.

3. Create an IPS package that contains the service manifest and the script.

4. Add the package to an IPS package repository.

5. Install that lockage during the Automated Installer installation by specifying that package in the AI manifest.

Answer Options
Correct Answer: C
Explanation

Running a Custom Script During First Boot

To perform any additional installation or configuration that cannot be done in the AI manifest or in a system configuration profile, you can create a script that is executed at first boot by a run-once SMF service.

1. Create the first-boot script.

2. Create the manifest for an SMF service that runs once at first boot and executes the script.

3. Create an IPS package that contains the service manifest and the script.

4. Add the package to an IPS package repository.

5. Install that package during the AI installation by specifying that package in the AI manifest.

The service runs and executes the script at first reboot after the AI installation.

Question 3

What are the two reasons that network configurations are set using svccfg, ipadm, and nscfg?

Answer Options
Correct Answer: C, E
Explanation

E:

* Many configuration tasks around name services have moved into the SMF in Solaris 11.

* The Service Management Facility (SMF), first introduced in Oracle Solaris 10, is a feature of the operating system for managing system and application services, and it replaces the legacy init scripting start-up mechanism common to prior releases of Oracle Solaris and other UNIX operating systems. SMF improves the availability of a system by ensuring that essential system and application services run continuously even in the event of any hardware or software failures. SMF is one of the components of the wider Oracle Solaris Predictive Self Healing capability.

Note:

* In Oracle Solaris 11, certain aspects of system configuration have changed, including the migration of several system, network, and naming services configuration to SMF.

Question 4

Which two actions are used to permanently configure a new interface?

Answer Options
Correct Answer: B, D
Question 5

Which two actions must be taken to enable IP forwarding on all interfaces yet disable on a specific interface?

Answer Options
Correct Answer: A, E
Explanation

The routeadm command is used to administer system-wide configuration for IP forwarding and routing. IP forwarding is the passing of IP packets from one network to another; IP routing is the use of a routing protocol to determine routes.

-e option...

Enable the specified option. The effect is to prepare the associated services (svc:/network/ipv4-forwarding:default in the case of ipv4-forwarding) for enabling. By means of the routing-svcs variable, the routing daemons are specified to be enabled on subsequent boot or when routeadm -u is run.

-d option...

Disable the specified option. The effect is to prepare the associated services (svc:/network/ipv4-forwarding:default in the case of ipv4-forwarding) for enabling. By means of the routing-svcs variable, the routing daemons are specified to be disabled on subsequent boot or when routeadm -u is run.
