What should you do?
You create a Microsoft Message Passing Interface (MPI) application by using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008. You plan to debug the application by using Visual Studio 2008. You need to configure the nodes that will be used for debugging.

What should you do?
You administer a Windows HPC Server 2008 cluster for your company. A user named Bob plans to create a new job template based on an existing template named HighMem. Bob runs the following PowerShell command on the head node: Copy-HpcJobTemplate CName HighMem CNewName BobsTemplate The command returns an error. You need to ensure that Bob can create the new job template. What should you do?
Which process should you attach to?
You create a Microsoft Message Passing Interface (MPI) application by using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008. The application process is named MPIApplication.exe. You plan to debug the application by using the MPI Cluster Debugger in Visual Studio 2008. You need to attach the debugger to the remote process on a compute node.
Which process should you attach to?
Which resource allocation model should you use in your job template?
You administer a Windows HPC Server 2008 cluster for your company. You notice that the performance of a primary application on the cluster is poor. You discover that the poor performance of the application is because of processor contention. You need to create a job template that specifies the correct resource allocation for jobs that are processor-bound. Which resource allocation model should you use in your job template?
What should you do?
You plan to create a parallel application by using Microsoft Visual C++. You want to use the Microsoft Message Passing Interface (MPI) library in the application. You need to ensure that the application can be compiled for both 32-bit and 64-bit platforms. You also need to ensure that targeting both platforms requires minimum maintenance.
What should you do?
What should you do?
You administer a Windows HPC Server 2008 cluster. The cluster nodes are based on non-uniform memory access (NUMA) architecture. You need to ensure that processors prioritize local memory. What should you do?
Which set of tasks should you include in the application?
You create a parallel application by using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008. The application prints a message to the console of all Microsoft Message Passing Interface (MPI) processes except for one. The application terminates and displays an error message. You need to change the code in the application so that the application completes successfully. Which set of tasks should you include in the application?
Which hardware component should you include on the new servers?
You administer a Windows HPC Server 2008 cluster for your company. Your company plans to use a new cluster application that requires additional nodes. You plan to acquire new servers and add them to the cluster as compute nodes. You need to ensure that the new servers meet the system requirements for Windows HPC Server 2008. Which hardware component should you include on the new servers?
Which two tasks should you perform?
You develop a parallel application by using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008. You have installed the Microsoft HPC Pack 2008 SDK at C:Program FilesMicrosoft HPC Pack 2008 SDK.
You create a new console application based on Microsoft Message Passing Interface (MPI). You set the Debugger to Launch property to MPI Cluster Debugger. You need to ensure that five processes are launched when the application is run in debug mode in Visual Studio 2008. Which two tasks should you perform? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose two.)
which all nodes are connected to the enterprise, private, and application networks. What should you do before
You are a system administrator for your company. Your company implements a new Windows HPC Server 2008 cluster. The cluster head node has two NICs connected to different networks and one InfiniBand host channel adapter (HCA) card connected to an InfiniBand switch. The most recent device drivers are installed. You start the Network Configuration Wizard on the head node. You discover that the wizard allows you to select only the network topologies that do not include an application network. You need to configure the cluster that has a network topology in which all nodes are connected to the enterprise, private, and application networks. What should you do before you restart the wizard?
