Exam C9030-644 topic 1 question 55 discussion

Actual exam question from IBM's C9030-644
Question #: 55
Topic #: 1
[All C9030-644 Questions]

A customer is experiencing z/OS performance problems on their z13 while the system is taking a memory dump. Which chargeable z Systems feature could provide relief for this problem?

  • A. Flash Express
  • B. Simultaneous Multithreading
  • C. Single Instruction Multiple Data
  • D. zEnterprise Data Compression
Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B 🗳️
Typical simultaneous multithreading (SMT) implementations allow workloads from different control programs to use a compute core concurrently, but with variable core capacity gains and thread execution slowdowns. The new IBM z13 platform implements SMT differently. At any point in time, a single control program manages the entire core, giving each workload more repeatable core capacity for processing.

I think the correct one must be "Flash Express" - "Flash Express is an innovative solution that is designed to help improve availability and performance to provide a higher level of quality of service. It is designed to automatically improve availability for key workloads at critical processing times and to improve access time for critical business z/OS workloads. It can also reduce latency time during diagnostic collection (memory dump operations)" - redbook SG247824 - IBM z13 Technical Guide, Appendix H page 556
