IBM Exam C9510-401 Topic 5 Question 100 Discussion

Actual exam question for IBM's C9510-401 exam

Question #: 100
Topic #: 5

The application placement controller has been configured with elasticity mode enabled. Intermittently, all instances of a dynamic cluster are removed. After further review, the system administrator noticed that it occurs during peak load on another dynamic cluster.

The administrator wants to keep at least one instance available. Which configuration is needed in the dynamic clusters?

AEnable application lazy start with elasticity mode.

BSet the proactiveIdleStop custom property to true.

CSet the Number of instances to a value greater than zero.

DDisable the option ''If other dynamic clusters need resources, stop all instances of this cluster during periods of inactivity''.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

It is not recommended to enable elasticity mode when the following option is set in the administrative console for one or more dynamic clusters:

If other dynamic clusters need resources, stop all instances of this cluster during periods of inactivity.

If you have elasticity mode enabled and the option set, the application placement controller can remove all of the custom nodes in the cell.

Wait, are we sure the application lazy start is even relevant here? I feel like that's more for cold start scenarios. Option C is the way to go.

This is a classic case of 'keep it simple, stupid'. Just set the number of instances to a non-zero value and call it a day. Option C FTW!

Option B is pretty interesting. Enabling proactiveIdleStop might help manage resources more efficiently. Worth considering.

But what about option C? Setting the Number of instances to a value greater than zero seems important too.

I think option B is a good choice. It can help prevent all instances from being removed.

I'd go with Option D. Keeping at least one instance running during peak load on another cluster seems like the safest bet.

I think setting the Number of instances to a value greater than zero would be the most straightforward solution.

Hmm, I'm not sure disabling the 'If other dynamic clusters need resources...' option is the best idea. That could lead to some serious resource conflicts.

That makes sense too. It's important to prevent instances from being removed unnecessarily. Thanks for sharing your perspective, Jaleesa.

I disagree, I believe the correct answer is D) Disable the option ''If other dynamic clusters need resources, stop all instances of this cluster during periods of inactivity''. This will ensure that instances are not removed during peak load on another dynamic cluster.
