Question #6
An administrator has a new standalone Guardium appliance that will be placed into production next week. The appliance will monitor traffic from a number of databases with a high volume of traffic. The administrator needs to configure the schedule to ensure the appliance internal database does not get full with incoming data.
Which data management function does the administrator need to configure?
Which data management function does the administrator need to configure?
- APurge
- BData Export
- CData Restore
- DSystem Backup
Correct Answer:
A
The quickest way to reduce the DB % Full is to induce a purge of some older data now.
Example - If you have "Purge data older than 30 days" set currently, and presuming you have all necessary backups and Archives of your system and you are happy to attempt to purge off slightly more data now
Note: The DB filling up can be caused by the following - amongst other things
* Spikes in the data being captured
* A policy setting that allows too much data to be logged in the Internal Database
* Keeping too much data on the Internal Database
* Collecting data from too many Databases (STAPs)

Question #7
A Guardium administrator is setting up a Collector schedule to export data to an Aggregator and Archive its data to an Archive storage unit for additional data safety.
Given this scenario, which is true regarding the purge schedule?
Given this scenario, which is true regarding the purge schedule?
- AThe Archive and the Export have independent purge schedules but should not be run at the same time.
- BThe Guardium unit would run the Export and Archive before any purge, so you would only see the last purge run each day.
- CIt would not be possible to configure both on a Collector, the Aggregator should do the archiving and only export from the Collector.
- DAny time that Data Export and Data Archive are both configured, the purge age must be greater than both the age at which to export and the age at which to
Correct Answer:
D
Any value that is specified for the starting purge date must be greater than the value specified for the Archive data older than value. In addition, if data exporting is active, the starting purge date that is specified here must be greater than the Export data older than value

Question #8
A Guardium administrator needs to check the traceroute information between one appliance and its Central Manager.
Which CLI command should the administrator run?
Which CLI command should the administrator run?
- Aiptraf
- Bsupport show iptables
- Cshow network routes operational
- Dsupport must_gather network_issues
Correct Answer:
D
support must_gather network_issues
The command gathers all network information from the appliance and polls hoststhat Guardium interacts with by ping, traceroute, corresponding port probingand other measures. If optional parameter is specified, then it polls only thehost that was specified (if Guardium is configured to do any activity on thishost).

Question #9
A Guardium administrator needs to monitor changes to the Oracle configuration file on a production Oracle database server.
Assuming all valid licenses are applied, which Guardium component does the administrator need to install and where?
Assuming all valid licenses are applied, which Guardium component does the administrator need to install and where?
- AGuardium Installation Manager (GIM) on the Database Server.
- BConfiguration Auditing System (CAS) on the Database Server.
- CConfiguration Auditing System (CAS) on the Guardium Collector.
- DConfiguration Auditing System (CAS) on the Database Server and on the Guardium Collector.
Correct Answer:
D
CAS is an agent installed on the database server and reports to the Guardium system whenever a monitored entity have changed, either in content or in ownership or permissions. You install a CAS client on the database server system. Once the CAS client has been installed on the host, you configure the actual change auditing functions from the Guardium portal.
The CAS server is a component of Guardium and runs on the Guardium system.

Question #10
A Guardium administrator manages an environment containing four standalone Collectors. The administrator has been asked to provide a weekly report showing all Data Manipulation Language (DML) SQL statements performed by all database administrators on all databases. The administrator does not want to run the report on each Collector.
What should the administrator do to simplify this task and run the report in only one place every week?
What should the administrator do to simplify this task and run the report in only one place every week?
- AReplace the 4 Collectors with one Aggregator.
- BCreate an Enterprise Report on one Collector combining the data.
- CAdd a Guardium Aggregator to the environment. Create and run the report on the Aggregator.
- DInstall a Configuration Auditing System (CAS) on each Database Server. Configure the CAS Client to send data to a Collector. Create and run the report on the
Correct Answer:
C
Central Manager/Aggregator The Central Manager is a single point of management for the entire IBM InfoSphere Guardium deployment. With the Central
Manager, customers can define enterprise-wide policies, alerts, queries and reports, install patches, push configuration and perform a variety of other administrative tasks from a single console. In addition, data from multiple collectors can be aggregated to the Aggregation Server to provide holistic views and generate enterprise-level reports.
Incorrect:
Not D: CAS does not monitor DML SQL Statements.
Databases can be affected by changes to the server environment; for example, by changing configuration files, environment or registry variables, or other database or operating system components, including executable files or scripts used by the database management system or the operating system. CAS tracks such changes and reports on them. The data is available on the Guardium system and can be used for reports and alerts.
