Thanks for your help

Hi Raj,

I am trying to answer some of them hope i am right!! However please wait for the others to answer, that way we would have the right answers!! At the same time you should have mentioned the no of options that we have to choose, I feel that Ques 7 would have 2 answers.


1. D. DB2 Universal Developer's Edition

2. B. Repeatable Read

3. D. Enable check constraints

4. A. DB2 Runtime Client

5.A. GRANT EXECUTE ON PACKAGE a.app1 TO user3 (Doubtful)

6. A. DB2 Connect Enterprise Edition

7. C. A column D. An index key

8. B. Check pending

9. A. Query

10. B. Performed to identify the server the DB2 database manager is on

Hope my answers are right!!!

Regards

Nitin.

For the second question, the answer is Cursor stability(it gives consistent data for every query)...

for 5th question, the answer is D...(grant execute on procedure p.proc1 to user3)

and for question 7, C is right....locks cannot be obtained on colums...it can be obtained on index key...

Try to study " db2 v8.1 certification exam 700 study guide " by Roger sanders..This may help u passing ur exam..

The second question is not clear.

RR gives an internally consistent answer set (no phantom rows in the answer set), and the same answer set even if the query is submitted twice within the same unit of work (UOW).

RS gives an internally consistent answer set (no phantom rows in the answer set) for each individual query, but could be different if the same query is submitted again in the same UOW.

I doubt it is CS, which could provide an inconsistent answer set (phantom rows).

I would guess that the answer is RS, but not sure based on their meaning of "consistent data for every query."

I have passed the certification 700. I socred 81%. Thanks every body for the help, I really mean it.

Congratulations on passing.

The next one (Exam 701 - DB2 UDB V8.1 for Linux, UNIX and Windows Database Administration) is a lot tougher, but the pass score is only 51% I believe.

Its 61% required to Pass

Are the sample test pass levels different than the real tests? I just checked the IBM website and it says 51% pass for the sample test on 701 Exam 701 - DB2 UDB V8.1 for Linux, UNIX and Windows Database Administration.

I would provide a link, but you have to login first to see the web page I am looking at.

I think for 700 its 61% and 701 its 51%

I think, Passing score for exam 701 is 61% or better....(out of 70 questions)

55% ---> Exam # 512 ---> FOR 7.1 (CERTIFIED SPECIALIST)
61% ---> Exam # 701 ---> FOR 8.1 (CERTIFIED DBA)

IBM accepts exam # 512 and exam # 700 to get in to exam # 701.

I got certified by taking 512 and 701 exams.

IBM ACCEPTS EITHER EXAM # 512 or # 700 to take exam # 701
