In order to create a new WebSphere cell and implement a horizontal scaling topology, an administrator needs to perform which task(s)?
- A.
Federate nodes and create multiple clusters
- B.
Load balance multiple HTTP servers using Edge Components
- C.
Deploy multiple database servers using a high availability software product
- D.
Federate nodes and create cluster members across multiple machines.
Correct Answer
D. Federate nodes and create cluster members across multiple machines.Explanation
To create a new WebSphere cell and implement a horizontal scaling topology, the administrator needs to federate nodes and create cluster members across multiple machines. Federating nodes involves adding remote application server instances to the deployment manager, allowing them to be managed centrally. Creating cluster members across multiple machines enables load balancing and high availability by distributing the workload across multiple servers. This allows for horizontal scaling, where additional machines can be added to the cluster to handle increased traffic and improve performance.Rate this question:
