Question 4: JumpStart Configuration

Which of the following components support JumpStart installation? (Choose three.)
Correct Answer:
A profile
A rule
The check script
References:
EXPLANATION:
A, C, and E are correct. A profile defines specific software installation requirements. It specifies the
elements of installation that you would otherwise determine interactively in a manual installation, such as
the software group to install. A rule is a statement that uses a set of system attributes to identify a group of
machines and links it to a profile file. Before JumpStart could use the rules file and the profiles, you need to
perform a validation by running the check script.

You have assigned a role Manager to a user dcheney. Which of the following commands will you use to
assign the Operator rights profile to dcheney?
Correct Answer:
usermod -P Operator dcheney
References:
EXPLANATION:
B is correct because to assign a rights profile to a user, you use the usermod command with the -P option.
E is correct because to assign a rights profile to a user, you can use the rolemod command with the -P
option on the role that is assigned to the user.
A is incorrect because the -R option is used with the usermod command to assign a role to a user.

allowed to assign a role to a role. In other words, the -R option is not available for the roleadd or rolemod
command.

from the dump device and write the saved crash dump to the appropriate files. Which of the following
commands will you issue to disable this automatic feature?
Correct Answer:
dumpadm -n
References:
EXPLANATION:
D is correct because the dumpadm command run with the -n option disables the automatic execution of the
savecore command on reboot.
A is incorrect because the -d option is used with the dumpadm command to specify the dump device.
B is incorrect because the -y option is used with the dumpadm command to enable the automatic execution
of the savecore command on reboot. This is the default.

Resolver is the name of a command that is used by the client machine to resolve a domain name into an IP
address.
References:
EXPLANATION:
B and D are correct because a map created or updated on a primary server will be automatically pushed to
the secondary servers, and Resolver is not a command; rather, it's a collection of routines that help resolve

A, B, and E are correct. A zone is in the installed state when its configuration is instantiated, but the zone's
virtual platform is not yet associated to it. Software packages are installed under the root path for the zone.
A zone is in the ready state when a virtual platform has been associated with the installed zone, a unique
zone ID has been assigned, file systems have been mounted, and devices have been configured. A zone is
in the running state if one or more user processes associated with the zone's application environment are
running.

Correct Answer:
Copy the /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow files to a new location and remove the root password entries from
these files at the new location.
Edit the /var/yp/Makefile to change the value of PWDIR.

References:
EXPLANATION:
B and D are correct because the master server will read the password files from the directory path specified
by PWDIR in the /var/yp/Makefile file.
A is incorrect because changing the name of the password files is going to deprive the server of the
information it needs and is also going to prevent the users from logging in.
C is incorrect because removing the root password form the /etc/passwd file is going to prevent the root user
from logging in.

Question 20: Network Basics

Which of the following statements is true about a MAC address?
Correct Answer:
When an Ethernet card of a computer is replaced, its MAC address changes.
References:
EXPLANATION:
B is correct because the MAC address is burned into the Ethernet card, which is a NIC for an Ethernet
network.
A is incorrect because a computer can have more than one interface card and each interface card has its
own MAC address. However, remember that multiple interfaces on a SPARC system have the same MAC
address because it is derived from the NVRAM chip.
C is incorrect because an Ethernet address is a 48-bit number, not a 32-bit number. An IP address (IPv4) is
a 32-bit number.
D is incorrect because a MAC source and a destination MAC address are in the frame header and IP
addresses are in the IP datagram header.

OBJECTIVE: 1.1

What is the maximum limit on the number of logical volumes that SVM can support on a disk set?
Correct Answer:
8192
References:
EXPLANATION:
B is correct because SVM can support up to 8192 logical volumes per disk set.
A is incorrect because the number of disks in the set may limit how many volumes you will practically be
able to create, but it does not determine the maximum number allowed by SVM.
C is incorrect because 8 is the maximum limit on the number of partitions you can create on a standard
Solaris disk, not the limit on the number of logical volumes.
D is incorrect because 128 is the default number of logical volumes that SVM is configured to support per
disk set.
E is incorrect because there is a limit on the number of logical volumes SVM can support, and that limit is
8192.

The info-zone will be assigned an ID of 2.
References:
EXPLANATION:
B and C are correct because a zone after booting is put into the running state. The zone ID 1 is already
assigned to the research-zone; therefore, the info-zone will get the zone ID of 2.
A is incorrect because when a zone is booted, it is put into the running state.
D is incorrect because the zone ID 1 is already assigned to the research-zone; therefore, the info-zone will
get the zone ID of 2.

Question 26: Managing Zones

Which of the following are the daemons used to manage the zones in Solaris 10? (Choose two.)
Correct Answer:
zsched
zoneadmd
References:
EXPLANATION:
A and D are correct because kernel creates the zsched process for the zone to put the zone into the ready
state. For each zone that is in the ready, running, or shutting-down state, there is one zone administration
daemon, zoneadmd, running to manage the zone, which includes booting and shutting down in addition to
other tasks.
B and E are incorrect because there are no such daemons as zoneconfd and zoneadmind in Solaris 10.

Change the value for the boot-device variable of the Open Boot Prom.
References:
EXPLANATION:
A and C are correct because you need to run the metaroot command to tell the system to boot from the
mirror, and then reboot. However, you also need to change the value of the boot-device to refer to both

References:
EXPLANATION:
C is correct because the coreadm -e global -g /var/corefiles file enables the global core dumps and ensures
that the core files will be placed in the /var/corefiles directory.
A is incorrect because the coreadm -e log command is used to enable the generation of a syslog message
when there is an attempt to create a global core file.
B is incorrect because the coreadm -d process command is used to disable the per process core dumps.

not offer an automatic installation.
C is incorrect because a Solaris flash archive is just an image of an already installed system that can be
installed by using any of the available installation methods.
