Exam 300-620 topic 1 question 3 discussion

Atomic is correct.. Ref: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/datacenter/aci/apic/sw/4-x/basic-configuration/Cisco-APIC-Basic-Configuration-Guide-42x/Cisco-APIC-Basic-Configuration-Guide-42x_chapter_0100.html importMode Best-effort mode: each MO is applied individually, and errors only cause the invalid MOs to be skipped. Note If the object is not present on the controller, none of the children of the object get configured. Best-effort mode attempts to configure the children of the object. Atomic mode: configuration is applied by whole shards. A single error causes whole shard to be rolled back to its original state.

B is correct: Atomic—ignores shards that contain objects that cannot be imported while proceeding with shards that can be imported. If the version of the incoming configuration is incompatible with the existing system, the import terminates.

B right answer.

Atomic—ignores shards that contain objects that cannot be imported while proceeding with shards that can be imported. If the version of the incoming configuration is incompatible with the existing system, the import terminates Best-effort—ignores objects within a shard that cannot be imported. If the version of the incoming configuration is incompatible with the existing system, shards that are incompatible are not be imported while the import proceeds with those that can be imported. Atomic Replace—overwrites existing configuration with imported configuration data. Any objects in the existing configuration that do not exist in the imported configuration are deleted. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/datacenter/aci/apic/sw/4-x/aci-fundamentals/Cisco-ACI-Fundamentals-401/Cisco-ACI-Fundamentals-401_chapter_01011.html

Any new exam takers? Is this still valid? I heard that Cisco Data Center certification is getting some revisions.

Atomic is correct : Merge and replace are Import Types not import Modes
