📝 Sample Questions

Q1. A Solaris 10 host has 8 physical CPU cores. An administrator creates two zones and wants to allocate CPUs so each zone receives an equal share while leaving at least one core for the global zone. Which allocation meets the requirement?

🔹 A. Zone 1: 4 CPUs, Zone 2: 4 CPUs

🔹 B. Zone 1: 3 CPUs, Zone 2: 3 CPUs

🔹 C. Zone 1: 4 CPUs, Zone 2: 3 CPUs

🔹 D. Zone 1: 2 CPUs, Zone 2: 2 CPUs

💡 Difficulty: easy | ✅ Correct: B

Q2. A web server runs in Zone A and a database server runs in Zone B on the same Solaris 10 host. Both need to listen on port 80 for health checks, but only the web server should accept external traffic. Which configuration ensures this behavior?

🔹 A. Assign the same IP address to both zones and use firewall rules to block external traffic to Zone B.

🔹 B. Give each zone a unique IP address and configure Zone B’s firewall to deny inbound connections on port 80.

🔹 C. Share a single network interface without VLANs and rely on application‑level authentication.

🔹 D. Run both services in the global zone and use chroot to separate them.

💡 Difficulty: medium | ✅ Correct: B

Q3. A Solaris host runs three zones with memory caps of 4 GB, 6 GB, and 8 GB respectively, while the physical RAM is 12 GB. The administrator enables dynamic memory management. After a workload spike, the total memory demand reaches 15 GB. What is the most likely outcome?

🔹 A. All zones will be throttled equally until demand drops below 12 GB.

🔹 B. The zone with the smallest cap will be swapped first, possibly causing its applications to pause.

🔹 C. The hypervisor will allocate additional swap space, allowing all zones to continue running without slowdown.

🔹 D. Memory requests will be denied for the zone with the largest cap, causing its processes to fail.

💡 Difficulty: hard | ✅ Correct: B
