QUESTION 2
A communications service provider has a solution modeled inside OSM sealed
cartridges, which are part of a composite
solution. What three enhancements can be implemented
without unsealing the existing cartridges?
A. defining new fulfillment providers for new provisioning systems to decompose
order items by target system
B. configuring new fulfillment dependency between two existing products
C. adding a new orchestration stage to the existing orchestration sequence to
decompose order items by region
D. including new properties to the order item specification, so that the new
property can be used during orchestration plan definition
E. using the existing granularity orchestration stage and changing the
granularity for a billing function, so that products are billed as soon as they
are provisioned.
Answer: C,D,E
QUESTION 3
A customer purchases ABC service for which a new order is submitted to Order
Service Management (OSM). Activation
for this service is under execution, indicating that the point-of-no-return has
not yet been reached, when the customer
decides to change the ABC service to XYZ service.
Which two OSM features can you use to handle the customer’s request?
A. Order Change Management
B. Order Fallout Management
C. Future-dated orders
D. Follow-on orders
E. Creation of new orders
Answer: A,D
QUESTION 4
Due to internal errors in a downstream system, one of the automated tasks is
receiving an error response to a request sent from OSM. Considering that the
error is an issue that could be resolved by simply retrying the request,
identify the
functionality you would use to recover from this fallout scenario.
A. Order Change Management
B. Notifications
C. Jeopardy
D. automation framework transaction rollback
E. follow-on order
Answer: D
QUESTION 5
Why would you use the Security Callback feature?
A. to intercept user interaction with orders before they gain access to
sensitive order data
B. to block users from accessing any OSM applications and interfaces
C. to intercept critical security alerts for OSM applications before they cause
runtime exceptions
D. to allow administrative users to enable security alerts for OSM applications
E. to prevent users without administrative roles to access the WebLogic
administration console
Answer: A

QUESTION 6
You must implement a dependency between two order components within a
product specification, where the dependent
order component will wait the amount of time defined in an order item property
after the blocking order component
finishes its execution and before starting its own execution.
What are the two tasks required to configure this behavior?
A. defining a Wait Condition in the dependency, which is configured with the
task state “Received”
B. defining a Wait For Condition in the dependency, which is configured with the
task state “Completed”
C. defining a Wait For Condition in the dependency, which is configured with a
data change notification
D. defining a Wait Delay in the dependency, which is configured with a fixed
time duration
E. defining a Wait Delay in the dependency, which is configured with a duration
expression
F. defining a Wait Condition in the dependency, which is configured with no
delay duration
Answer: A,E
