A deployment professional has been asked to review the backup plan of a WebSphere Process Server (WPS) Network Deployment installation with a standard Remote Messaging and Remote Support two node cell. The deployment professional has noticed that the databases are backed up on a different cycle and separate from the transaction logs. Predict the consequences during a database recovery from backup.

• A. WPS may not start up normally because the database and transaction logs backup are not synchronized.
• B. WPS must be restarted in recovery mode to automatically synchronize database and transaction logs.
• C. WPS will automatically synchronize database and transaction logs during normal startup.
• D. WPS transaction logs will have to be manually edited to remove transaction that occurred after the backup.

An application has been deployed on a clustered WebSphere Process Server environment using the Remote Messaging and Remote Support pattern. To handle asynchronous invocation problems, the store-and-forward capability is enabled for several applications. During the test phase one of the target services invoked by the application became unavailable. Which of the following statements is TRUE regarding recovery of events?

• A. No manual intervention is necessary. WebSphere Process Server will poll the target service
  and once it is available, all remaining sequenced
  events will be automatically processed.
• B. A single failed event has been generated by one of the cluster members when the target
  service became unavailable. Resubmit all failed
  events once the target service is available.
• C. Multiple failed events might have been created by different cluster members. All failed events
  must be resubmitted before the Store and
  Forward widget in the Business Space is set to Forward mode.
• D. No manual intervention is necessary. If the store-and-forward feature is activated on a single
  cluster member due to a target service outage,
  the remaining cluster members will take over and complete the invocation transactions.

A scalable and highly available WebSphere Process Server environment is built using a Remote Messaging deployment environment pattern. When Common Event Infrastructure (CEI) is enabled which leverages the default messaging provider, the runtime performance degraded significantly. What are the actions a deployment professional could take to reconfigure the messaging infrastructure and modify the settings to account for the extra load caused by CEI processing?

• A. Disable the Persist events to the data store property of the corresponding event groups of the events that belong to your application.
• B. Using the default messaging configuration, set up multiple JMS queues to route events to the service integration bus queue destination cluster.CommonEventInfrastructureQueueDestination.
• C. Modify the configuration settings of the event emitter factory profile for the CEI processing to enable the support for JMS transmission.
• D. Configure the event service on a separate cluster and add this cluster as the bus member.
• E. Use deployEventServiceMdb administrative command to set up more than one JMS queue to route events to the event service using the default embedded messaging configuration for event transmission.

A business integration application makes use of a non-interruptible business process which is invoked synchronously to update a backend SAP application and a data warehouse deployed on the DB2 database. Under peak loads, the business process performs poorly. The deployment professional is approached to fine tune the resources for better performance. What should be the appropriate tuning settings?

• A. Increase the number of connections in the connection pool of the JDBC data source to connect to DB2 database.
• B. Increase the sib.msgstore.discardableDataBufferSize default value to hold the data for which the quality of service attribute is best effort non-persistent of the business process.
• C. Increase the Java heap size but keep it low enough to avoid heap swapping.
• D. Replace the DB2 database data store for the business process with file store.
• E. Reduce the number of transaction boundaries within the business process and try to use parallel execution paths.
