An administrator is tasked with performing a graceful shutdown of the entire Cloud Pak for Data System V1.x for scheduled data center maintenance. Which command must be executed first to ensure all platform services are stopped in the correct order before powering down the nodes?
A new security policy requires that all system logs from the Cloud Pak for Data System be forwarded to a central SIEM solution. The SIEM administrator has provided an IP address (10.20.30.40) and port (514) for a remote syslog server. Which command correctly configures log forwarding?
During a system health check, an administrator notices a CRITICAL alert with ID `hw_service_105`. The administrator needs to gather a comprehensive set of logs and diagnostic information specifically related to this hardware event to send to IBM Support. What is the most appropriate command to achieve this?
A financial institution is deploying Cloud Pak for Data System and must comply with strict internal security standards. One requirement is to enforce data-at-rest encryption for all persistent volumes used by the platform. Which underlying technology integrated into the system provides this capability by default?
An administrator is onboarding a new team of data scientists. The team needs access to the platform, but company policy dictates that all user authentication must be managed centrally via the corporate Active Directory. Which two actions are essential for the administrator to perform on the Cloud Pak for Data System to enable this? (Select TWO).
True or False: On a Cloud Pak for Data System, the 'apadmin' user is the only account with privileges to execute platform-level commands like `ap node` and `ap platform`.
From the Cloud Pak for Data System web console, an administrator is reviewing the monitoring dashboard. They observe that the CPU utilization on a specific worker node has been consistently above 90% for the last hour, impacting job performance. What is the most direct action the administrator can take from the web console to investigate the cause?
Case Study: A retail company has deployed a Cloud Pak for Data System V1.x. The system administrator is finalizing the operational readiness plan. The Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) has mandated that the system must automatically report hardware failures and critical software events to IBM Support to minimize downtime. However, the system is deployed in a secure network segment with no direct internet access. All outbound traffic must pass through a corporate HTTP proxy server at `proxy.retailcorp.com:8080`. The administrator needs to configure the system to meet the CISO's requirement while adhering to the network constraints. The goal is to enable the automated support notification feature correctly. Which command should the administrator execute to fulfill this requirement?
An administrator is performing a system upgrade. As part of the post-upgrade validation, they need to verify the versions of all key software components in the stack. Which command provides a consolidated view of the versions for components like the platform manager, Red Hat OpenShift, and Portworx?
A system administrator needs to add a new worker node to an existing Cloud Pak for Data System to increase computational capacity. What is the correct high-level process to accomplish this?
