IBM Security Access Manager V9.0 Deployment — Question 36

Prior to installing a firmware update the deployment professional creates a snapshot of the appliance configuration. During acceptance testing of the new firmware it is discovered that the update introduced a bug.
How should the deployment professional restore the previous configuration?

Answer options

• A. Manage System Settings > System Settings > Snapshots, select the snapshot and click Apply
• B. Manage System Settings > System Settings > Snapshots, select the snapshot and click Restore
• C. Manage System Settings > Updates and Licensing > Available Updates, select the update and click Uninstall
• D. Manage System Settings > Updates and Licensing > Firmware Settings, click the Set Active link on the inactive partition

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because applying the snapshot will revert the appliance to the configuration saved before the firmware update. Option B suggests restoring the snapshot, which is not the correct action for applying the changes. Options C and D are unrelated to restoring a configuration snapshot and deal with uninstalling updates or managing firmware settings instead.
