IBM Virtualization Technical Support for AIX and Linux - v2 Set 3

To prevent frames being dropped as a result of network congestion on high speed links, IBM recommends enabling the use of pause frame on compatible switches and IVE adapters. Which attribute enables pause frames?

An administrator plans to implement Active Memory Expansion on several LPARs on a Power 770 system. Which tool should be used to determine the recommended LPAR settings for Active Memory Expansion?

A customer wants to compare a number of models within the POWER7 family to determine which is the best fit for their requirements. What centralized source would allow them to compare availability of Capacity on Demand and supported Hot-plug functions?

Where can an administrator find the implementation process for configuring a Power 795 to run in TurboCore mode?

A secondary site is being deployed for application availability and site failover. Servers of identical model and type have been ordered and delivered to the new location. Additional PowerVM activation keys were obtained for the original location to allow more than 32000 WWNs and enable Active Memory Sharing (AMS). How can the duplicate systems be updated to enable these additional features?

A number of POWER7 servers have been ordered to replace an existing infrastructure of POWER4 machines. All existing LPARs will be manually recreated on the new machines, preserving the installed operating systems. An administrator is planning to attach the POWER7 machines to the subnet, allowing the LPARs to keep their hostname and IP addresses. The NIM server that will be used to restore the LPARs on the new machines allows its clients it initiate NIM client commands. What needs to be considered to preserve the ability to restore an existing LPAR on the new infrastructure?

A system with two WPARs is reaching the memory limits imposed on them. Both have been set to a hard limit of 50%.
WPAR1 has a peak from 8am-10am of 70% memory resources
WPAR2 has a peak from 2pm-6pm of 65% memory resources
At peak times the system may kill processes which request more memory, as paging space is exhausted. What action would allow the two partitions to run efficiently at the same time?

A customer is consolidating two POWER6 595 servers to a single Power 795. The two 595 servers each have 24 active processors and have the following LPARs using dedicated processors, running continuously: The new Power 795 system will have two Processor Books (nodes), each with 8 cores activated in all MCMs (Multi Chip Modules). LPAR1 is in need of more processing power. If all the other LPARs keep their existing Processor allocation, what is the maximum number of processors which can be allocated to LPAR1?

Based on the SuSE Linux /proc/ppc64/lparcfg contents on a Linux LPAR, how many processing units are assigned to this system?

A new NPIV VIO client is being built. How can the administrator log all virtual Fibre Channel adapters into the SAN so the WWPNs are visible for disk mapping?
