Question 1

An administrator is evaluating system status using the Scorecard pane on the Status > System page in the IBM Cognos Administration console.

Which statement is true?

AIf a service is disabled in IBM Cognos Configuration, it is listed in the Scorecard pane.

BThe status that is displayed for each entry reflects the lowest status for all child entries.

CA status of Available is displayed when at least 80% of the child entries have a status of Available.

DA status of Unavailable is displayed when at least 80% of the child entries have a status of Unavailable.

Answer : B

The metric score for each entry is based on the performance of individual child entries. The status that is displayed for each entry is the lowest status of the child entries. For example, if all the metrics for a dispatcher are good, but one service on that dispatcher has a poor metric, the metric score shown for the dispatcher is poor.

Status is one of the following:

Question 3

An administrator wants to ensure that a datasource can be referenced when creating data modules in the IBM Cognos Analytics Portal (New > Data module).

What must be done to accomplish this?

AAdd the datasource to the list of supported datasources in IBM Cognos Configuration.

BConfigure the datasource in IBM Cognos Transformer so that it can communicate with the portal.

CIn the web-based modeling tool itself, specify the 'Create Data Modules' access permission for the datasource.

DOn the Connection tab of the datasource properties, ensure that the 'Allow web-based modeling' check box is selected.

Answer : D

Problem(Abstract): Datasource connections not listed in Data server by default

Symptom: We can see the datasource in the Admin console but not in the list of data servers.

Cause: This is default behavior.

Resolving the problem

Go to the Administrative Console -> Configuration -> Set properties -> Connections tab.

On the bottom, you will see 'Data source capabilities'

Inside that, check the box which says 'Allow web-based modeling'

Once you check this, the datasource would be present as data server.

Question 4

An administrator created a Content Store export and included the user account information.

How can a listing of the content be exported?

AWithin the export, ensure the Recording level option is set to Trace.

BBy default when the Content Store is backed up, a full detailed listing is generated and available in the Logs folder.

CModify the Advanced settings on the ContentManagerService by adding the parameter
CM.DeploymentDetailEntireContent with a value of true.

DModify the Advanced settings on the ContentManagerService by adding the parameter
CM.DeploymentIncludeConfiguration with a value of true.

Answer : D

You can specify if configuration objects and their children are included as part of deployment. By default, they are not included.

You can change the default setting using the advanced setting

CM.DEPLOYMENTINCLUDECONFIGURATION.

By default, it is set to False (do not include configuration objects in deployments).

To change the default to include configuration objects and their children, set it to True.
