An administrator used IVM to assign a new tape drive to an IBM i partition running on a POWER
blade. The administrator verified that the IVM has created the appropriate vSCSl connections
between VIO Server and the IBM i partition.
The administrator sees the hardware resource within IBM i, but the associated device description
is missing. What is the most likely reason this is occurring?

An optical drive is owned by a VIO Server and shared between multiple IBM i partitions as virtual
optical devices.
An administrator wants to use the virtual optical device on an IBM i partition, but WRKHDWRSC
*STG shows that the virtual IOP is “Inoperative.”
After verifying that the device is correctly allocated to the partition, what action should be taken?

A customer is currently running HMC level 7.7.3. Fix Central now has 7.7.5 for their machine
available. What is the final step required prior to installing the new code level?

An administrator is planning to upgrade their VIO Server (VIOS) 1.5 partition to the latest level
using DVD media. The VIOS partition is HMC managed and contained in the CEO.
What does the administrator require to perform the upgrade?

What is the correct sector size to select when reformatting disk drives from AIX for use on IBM i?

A company requires up to 20 client IBM i partitions. Each must have redundant access to SAN
storage and minimal hardware in the POWER7 system.
Which option will support this?

What minimum hardware and software levels are required to host IBM i on other IBM i partitions?

When attempting to remove a large amount of memory from a partition, the HMC generates an
error stating that all the memory requested was not removed.
What can be done to help ensure all the memory gets removed when the request is attempted
again?

An administrator is configuring two client IBM i partitions running 7.1 with TR4. Both client
partitions are hosted by an IBM i partition running 7.1 with TR4. The managed system is a 4-core
Power 720, managed by an HMC. The host partition owns all of the disk in the CEO, the internal
LTO-4 tape drive, and the DVD.
How can the administrator share the internal tape drive between the host partition and both client
partitions?

On a Power 740, static IP addresses have previously been configured on the FSP for both HMC1
and HMC2 ports. These addresses are currently not known. How can the addresses be
determined in order to access ASMI and connect the system to an HMC?
