An application is required to retrieve rows from a relational database table and send them across WebSphere MQ to a remote queue manager, where a receiving application consumes them.
After a successful MQPUT of a message, the corresponding row is to be deleted from the database. It is intended to run this application using the free WebSphere MQ Client. The delivery of each message is to be guaranteed. Which of the following is true about this implementation?

• A.  It cannot be done using the free WebSphere MQ Client; the Extended Transactional Client is required, since two phase commits are needed for this solution.
• B.  This solution can be implemented using the free WebSphere MQ Client, provided that the receiving application can recognize and handle repeated delivery of the same message.
• C.  This solution cannot be implemented using the free WebSphere MQ Client; persistent messaging is not supported by the free WebSphere MQ Client.
• D.  It cannot be done using the free WebSphere MQ Client; a local queue manager is required to support the guaranteed delivery of the messages.

A solution designer is looking to utilize industry standard technologies but does not want to settle for the qualities of service that HTTP offers. Which of the following is not a benefit of using SOAP/WebSphere MQ over SOAP/HTTP?

• A.  Assured delivery
• B.  WebSphere MQ clustering for load balancing and enhanced reliability and availability
• C.  Ability to provide access to legacy applications
• D.  Integration with, and reuse of, existing WebSphere MQ infrastructure

A bus company is implementing a solution which will display in real-time all bus positions on a central dashboard. Each bus is transmitting position information at regular intervals. What is the best way of implementing this solution given that there is limited bandwidth for communication?

• A.  Each bus updates a message in a central queue using its number as a key and the dashboardapplication reads the whole queue every few minutes.
• B.  Each bus updates a message in a common queue and the dashboard application reads thewhole queue every few minutes.
• C.  Each bus sends messages to a separate queue and the dashboard application checks thosequeues every few minutes.
• D.  Each bus sends a message to a central queue which is read by the dashboard application

A Windows application using the WebSphere MQ client to connect to a Linux queue manager on a pSeries server receives messages originating from an iSeries system. The message data appears incomprehensible. Select the most likely explanation for this.

• A.  No message conversion was requested in the receiving application MQGET request nor on thesending channel agent.No message conversion was requested in the receiving applicationMQGETrequest nor on the sending channel agent.
• B.  Message conversion failed because an incorrect CCSID was specified in a MQCCSIDenvironment variable on the Windows system.
• C.  Message conversion was requested both on the sending channel agent and in the receivingapplication MQGET request, resulting in doubleMessage conversion was requested both onthe sending channel agent and in the receiving application? MQGET request, resulting indouble conversion.
• D.  A message conversion exit was not provided.

A solution developer needs to promote newly developed applications from the development environment through the user acceptance test environment and into the production environment. Which of the following will best avoid issues with naming conventions for application-owned permanent queues?

• A.  A standard should be implemented by which all queue names will be prefixed with the queue manager name, which will begin with the strings EV? AT?or RD? respectively, to indicate the current environment. Applications will have to amend queue names accordingly before?EV? ?AT?or ?RD? respectively, to indicate the current environment. Applications will have to amend queue names accordingly before opening the queues.
• B.  The names should be identical across the various environments, so that no changes to applications or object definitions between queue managers are required during promotion.
• C.  WebSphere MQ clustering should be used to resolve queue names and locations dynamically.
• D.  The alias queue names used in the application code will be prefixed with EV? AT?or RD? respectively, so that applications can beThe alias queue names used in the application code will be prefixed with ?EV? ?AT?or ?RD? respectively, so that applications can be promoted between environments without having to change the queue names.
