Server Day 2 - 2nd review

A technician installs a new server and realizes that there is no option to enable out-of-band management in the server settings. The server is connected to e PDU and a network switch with no operating system running. What should the technician do?

• Install an SSH package on the server and use the existing NIC card to manage the server remotely.

• Order a dedicated card or enablement kit. Connect the card to the network switch.

• Install an 008 (out-of-bard) PCI express card. Use a fiber-optic cable and connect to the switch using a SAS adapter.

• use the PDU to manage the server remotely.

A company wants to connect a server to a 10GbE network switch using an optical multimode 3 (0M3) network cable. What is the expected distance of the cable run in this instance?

• Up to 40km

• Up to 100m

• up to 300m

• Up to 100km

Refer to the exhibit. A technician has almost finished deploying a new rack. What should be used in SLOT A? The cost should be kept to a minimum.

• Patch panel

• Blanking panel

• Cable manager for power cables

• PDU

A technician is preparing to install a hard disk enclosure with the following width, height, and depth:

19" X 2.50" X 19.67"

What is the minimum number of free contiguous rack units that are required for installation?

• 1U

• 2U

• 5U

• 4U

An administrator is installing multiple rack-mounted servers that include multiple hot-swappable components. The administrator wants to avoid shutting down the server when pulling the server forward to remove and replace hot-swappable components.

What should the administrator install to avoid this situation?

• Fixed rail kits

• Sliding rail kits

• Air baffle kits

• Cable management arms

An administrator wishes to connect a server to a switch located in the same comms room. The administrator examines the switch and confirms that there are two ports available as shown in the exhibit. A cable has been connected to the server already. What should the administrator do?

• Replace the cable and use a single mode SC cable.

• Check the HCL documentation and install a dedicated expansion card in the switch.

• Install an RJ45 media converter and connect to the switch using an adapter.

• Use an LC SFP module and install it in the switch.

A server administrator is planning a new rack server installation. They are developing installation plans to provide for safety, reliability, accessibility, and reduced cost. Which installation guidelines should the administrator keep in mind in their design plan? (Select TWO)

• Leave a 10 free space between each server and mounted device.

• Rack enclosures should be located as near or directly under air conditioning units whenever possible.

• Multiple rack enclosures should be mounted in solid rows when the front of one rack faces the

  rear of another rack (front-to-back).

• UPS and other heavy devices should be located as low in the rack as possible.

A server administrator is designing a single rack mounted deployment for server and IT devices. The design should provide for decentralized power protection with a power event affecting no more than one device. Cost efficiency must be considered in the design. How should the power distribution be designed?

• Plug each device into a different PDU. Plug each PDU into a different service circuit.

• Plug each device into a different PDU. Plug all PDUs into the same UPS.

• Plug each device into a different PDU. Plug each PDU into a different UPS.

• Plug each device into a primary and secondary PDU. Plug all primary PDUs into one service

  circuit and all secondary PDUs into a different service circuit

A company is determining requirements for a server farm to support multiple high-volume web applications including applications, databases, and web services. The design should minimize per-server power requirements, provide high processing power, and optimize for availability.

Which type of server deployment architecture should the company use?

• Stand-alone

• Tower

• Blade

• Rack

A company is deploying several desktop computers on its manufacturing floor for use as general-purpose servers. Computers will be deployed near heavy manufacturing equipment that can start up or shut down at any time. The company wants to use a network cable option that is least susceptible to RFI.

What should the company use?

• Fiber optic

• Coaxial

• CAT 6E STP

• CAT 6E UTP
