Given that Maximo is to be installed, review the Maximo search types with the customer and explain the impact that they can have on system performance so that search types and their implications have been reviewed with the customer.
Given a customers need to deploy Maximo, assess the proposed infrastructure so that the installation of Maximo can be implemented on the proposed infrastructure.
Section 2: Installation
Given that IBM Maximo Asset Management (Maximo ) middleware has been defined and Maximo is to be installed explain the Maximo installation options so that the Maximo installation options are defined.
Given that Maximo is to be installed, explain the Maximo installation flow so that the Maximo, fix packs, add-ons and industry solutions installation flow is understood.
Given that Maximo is to be installed, explain the database script installation process so that process to update the Maximo database is understood.
Given that Maximo is to be installed, explain the different Maximo installation components so that the components and how they are used are understood.
Given that Maximo is to be installed, describe the use of the autonomic deployment engine so that the Maximo installation use of the deployment engine is understood.
Given that Maximo has been installed describe the use of the Maximo tools so that the Maximo tools usage is understood.
Given that an Maximo product is to be installed, perform the tasks to manually install Maximo so that Maximo is installed with the current fix pack.
Given that the middleware has been installed, validate core technology configurations so that users can connect to the installed Maximo system via the middleware.
Given that the Maximo product is in the process of installation or has been installed, describe the installation and tool log files so that the appropriate course of action can be taken.
Given that the Maximo product is installed, verify that the Maximo database has been installed correctly so that the Maximo system is ready to be configured.
Given that Maximo is to be upgraded, explain the Maximo upgrade process from 7.1 to 7.5 so that the customer understands the upgrade process.
Given that the IBM product is installed, verify which version of Maximo has been installed so that Maximo is installed to the targeted level.
Section 3: Configuration
Given IBM Maximo Asset Management (Maximo) is already installed, enable Application Server Security within Maximo configuration and J2EE server so that users can connect to Maximo by using LDAP authentication.
Given Maximo is already installed and is ready to integrate with other systems, validate the Maximo Integration Framework (MIF) configuration is correct and functional so that Maximo can send and receive transactions to and from external systems.
Given Maximo is already installed,know, explain and utilize the maximo.properties file so that the Maximo system can be configured to use alternate middleware and database connection points.
Given that Maximo is already installed, manually build a Maximo EAR file and deploy it so that the Maximo application has been updated on J2EE server.
Section 4: PerformanceTuningandProblemDetermination
Given that IBM Maximo Asset Management (Maximo) is installed,review and explain the Maximo performance log settings so that the Maximo system is running at optimal performance level.

D. To synchronize users from a LDAP capable server, bypassing the J2EE bind repository authentication
Answer: B
QUESTION 2
Which statement describes how garbage collection is used?
A. Garbagecollection frees memory by removing dead objects from the heap.
B. Garbage collection compresses the heap space through data compression.
C. Garbage collection forces the freeing of memory in the heap by dumping the objects in the order of least used to most used.
D. Garbage collection uses a properly tuned garbage collection agent to gather unused data in the heap and purge it from the system.
Answer: A
QUESTION 3
