The following questions will allow you to check how well you've learned the material included in this course.


11) Which are true regarding the inclusion of Embedded Remote Access in the PowerEdge 2650?


The system does not support an add-in DRAC.


Its primary advantage is that it offers the functionality of a DRAC without using a PCI slot.


It has an optional modem, battery back-up, and AC adapter.


The ERA's functions are limited to reporting and monitoring; it cannot perform console redirection functions.



12) Which are true regarding the PowerEdge 2650's embedded PERC3/Di?


Supports write-back and read-ahead caching


Supplies power for up to 24 hours to preserve cache contents in the event of a power outage


Capable of 1GBit/sec throughput


The PERC3/Di is active out of the box; no additional hardware or configuration is required



13) Slot 2, PCI Bus 1, operates at _________?


33 or 66 Mhz


66 or 100 Mhz


33, 66, 100, or 133 MHz, when Slot 1 is empty


133 MHz at all times




14) How does the PowerEdge 2650 scan its PCI bus slots?


By slot number, beginning with slot 1


According to the host bus ordering


According to the manual configuration of the BIOS


The slots are scanned virtually simultaneously




15) To use the Dell OpenManage Server Assistant CD, which is true?


The system must have at least 128 MB of RAM


The activation key must be purchased from Dell


The firmware must first be flashed


The system must be running in Console Mode




16) If the drive status indicator blinks green, then amber, and then off, repeating this sequence every two seconds, what is indicated?


The drive is being prepared for removal


The drive is rebuilding.


The drive is being identified.


There is a predicted failure for the drive.




17) Which of the following are valid configurations of the SCSI backplane? (Choose all that apply)


Active 1 x 5: One channel with up to five 1.0" drives


Active 1 x 7: one channel with up to seven 1.0" drives


Active Split 5: Two channels (1x2 and 1x3) with max of five 1.0" drives


Active Split 8: Two channels (1x3 and 1x5) with up to eight 1.0" drives




18) You want to install 2 GB of memory in your PowerEdge 2650. Which of the following are valid configurations? (Choose all that apply)


512 MB DIMMs in slots DIMM A1, DIMM A2, DIMM B1, and DIMM B2


512 MB DIMMs in slots DIMM A1, DIMM B2, DIMM C1, and DIMM A2


1 GB DIMMs in slots DIMM A1 and DIMM A2


1 GB DIMMs in slots DIMM A1, DIMM A2, DIMM B1, and DIMM B2




19) Which statements are true regarding "ChipKill" technology? (Choose all that apply)


Only 512MB and 1GB DIMMs provide ChipKill support


Allows the system to avoid uncorrectable data errors by spreading 2 144-bit ECC works across 4 DIMMs


It prevents a DIMM that is creating multiple Single Bit Errors from degrading into a fatal Multi-Bit error


It prevents voltage surges from damaging installed memory




20) Which operating systems optimize for Hyper-Threading? (Choose all that apply)


Red Hat Linux 7.2 Professional
