6. A p5-570 8-way 32GB system has been proposed to a customer as a new test system with four LPARs. Thecurrent applications are certified on AIX 5.2 but not yet on AIX 5.3. The customer wants to understand theadvantages and disadvantages of this solution versus a pair of 4-way p5-550s with 16GB each in testing theircurrent applications. Which of the following points should the pSeries technical specialist highlight?
A. The p5-570 would save rack space over a pair of p5-550 servers.
B. The p5-570 allows for more CPU and memory resources to be dynamically allocated to any LPAR forperformance testing.
C. The p5-570 can only be upgraded to 64GB of RAM without replacing memory.
D. The p5-570 supports advanced features such as Micro-Partitioning and Virtual I/O allowing more LPARs of thecustomer's applications with fewer processors and fewer I/O adapters.
Answer: B
7. The account team designed a p5-570 solution to strategically position the customer for future IBMannouncements. The customer was dissatisfied upon implementing the solution. An AIX v5.1 partition wasadded to the requirements halfway through the solution design process and it was not considered in the finaldesign. What should the pSeries technical specialist have done to prevent this situation?
A. Submitted an RPQ (Request for Quote) for AIX v5.1 support on a p5-570
B. Designed a p670 because it supports AIX 5.1 partitions
C. Initially designed a solution supporting AIX 5.1 partitions
D. Gained customer approval for the final design prior to ordering the system
Answer: D
8. After months of negotiations and several proposals, the customer indicates that they may be ready to purchase apSeries system.
