1:

In a ServiceGuard environment where multiple servers are connected to a set of disk drives /disk arrays, all servers must use the same device file names to communicate with shared devices. True or False?

2:

A system will fail to boot if both the /stand/ioconfig and /etc/ ioconfig files are missing. True or False?

3:

Fibre channel is a link technology that currently supports only the SCSI-2 protocol. In the future, other versions of SCSI will be supported. True or False?

4:

Device files encode the hardware path to our devices. When we introduce a switched fabric fibre channel SAN , we need to know the Domain ID of every switch in the SAN in order to establish how many switches we are communicating via, before communicating with our disk drives. The aggregate value of all the Domain IDs is used to represent the Domain component of the HP-US hardware path. True or False?

5:

We have a 4 Gigabit Ethernet cards in quad-speed PCI slots in our new HP-UX server (running HP-UX 11i version 2). The only problem is that we want to add a new 2 GB Fibre Channel card in a quad-speed slot. This will necessitate removing one of the Gigabit Ethernet cards and then adding the FC card. The driver for the FC card is already linked into the kernel. The process to add the new card using OLA /R features (hence no reboot) can be briefly described as:

  1. Identify the slot-id in question using SAM/OLAR commands.

  2. Suspend the driver for the existing card.

  3. Power-off the slot.

  4. Remove the card.

  5. Add the new FC card.

  6. Do not resume the driver because the driver relates to the old Gigabit Ethernet card.

  7. Power-on the slot.

  8. Run ioscan to ensure that the kernel identifies the new device.

  9. Run insf “ve to create any new device files.

This is a brief description but identifies the main steps involved. True or False?
