IBM WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment V8.5 and V9.0, Core Administration — Question 12

What is the purpose of setting the JVM custom property com.ibm.websphere.nodeagent.bootstrap.maxthreadpool = 5 on the node agent?

Answer options

• A. Start five application server processes in parallel.
• B. Use five threads to process parallel requests on node agent.
• C. Create five threads to communicate with application servers.
• D. Create five threads to communicate with deployment manager.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because setting the max thread pool to 5 allows the node agent to start five application server processes concurrently. Options B, C, and D incorrectly suggest that the threads are for processing requests or communication rather than for launching server instances.
