Actual exam question for IBM's C9510-401 exam

Question #: 109
Topic #: 5

A system administrator needs to configure a JDBC provider and a data source for an application in a clustered environment. The administrator also needs to copy the JDBC drivers from the database server to the application server machines.

How can the administrator meet these requirements?

ACreate a JDBC provider and the data source in the cluster scope.Copy the driver to all nodes.Set the environment variable at the node level to the driver's path.

BCreate a JDBC provider in the server scope and the data source in the node scope.Copy the driver to all application servers.Set the environment variable at the node level to the driver's path.

CCreate a JDBC provider in the node scope and the data source in the cell scope.Copy the driver to the deployment manager.Set the environment variable at the server level to point to the deployment manager path.

DCreate a JDBC provider in the application scope and the data source in the server scope.Copy the driver to all application server directories.Set the environment variable in each JVM to the driver's path.

Option C is the way to go. Centralizing the driver at the deployment manager is the most efficient way to manage this in a clustered environment. #ClusterFTW

Hold up, why are we even talking about this? Can't we just use a cloud-based database and let the platform handle all this for us? #LazyAdmin

I see your point, Hannah. However, I think C might be the best option. Creating the JDBC provider in the node scope and data source in the cell scope could simplify the process.

But wouldn't copying the driver to all nodes be more efficient? That's why I think A is the correct answer.

Option D is the clear winner! Copying the driver to all app servers and setting the environment variable in each JVM is the most robust solution.

I'd go with option B. Creating the JDBC provider and data source at different scopes seems more flexible and manageable.

Option A seems like the way to go. Configuring at the cluster scope and copying the driver to all nodes is the most comprehensive approach.

I disagree, I believe the answer is B. Creating the JDBC provider in the server scope and data source in the node scope seems more logical to me.

I think the answer is A. It makes sense to create the JDBC provider and data source in the cluster scope.
