Which two options are characteristics of a fast reboot?

A.
A fast reboot bypasses grub.

B.
A fast reboot cannot be used after a system panic on the x86 platform.

C.
A fast reboot can only be executed on the SPARC platform when the config/fastreboot_default
property for the svc:/system/boot-config:default service is set to true.

D.
A fast reboot uses an in-kernel boot loader to load the kernel into memory.

E.
A fast reboot is the default on all platforms.

Explanation:
C: To change the default behavior of the Fast Reboot feature on the SPARC
platform, so that a fast reboot is automatically performed when the system reboots, see below.
The following example shows how to set the property’s value to true on the SPARC platform, so
that a fast reboot is initiated by default:
# svccfg -s “system/boot-config:default” setprop config/fastreboot_default=true

# svcadm refresh svc:/system/boot-config:default
D: Fast Reboot implements an in-kernel boot loader that loads the kernel into memory and then
switches to that kernel.
The firmware and boot loader processes are bypassed, which enables the system to reboot within
seconds.
The Fast Reboot feature is managed by SMF and implemented through a boot configuration
service, svc:/system/boot-config. The boot-config service provides a means for setting or changing
the default boot configuration parameters. When the config/fastreboot_default property is set to
true, the system performs a fast reboot automatically, without the need to use the reboot -f
command. This property’s value is set to true on the x86 platform. For task-related information,
including how to change the default behavior of Fast Reboot on the SPARC platform, see
Accelerating the Reboot Process on an x86 Based System.
Note: One new feature, called Fast Reboot, will allow the system to boot up without doing the
routine set of hardware checks, a move that can make system boot times up to two-and-a-half
times faster, Oracle claimed. This feature can be handy in that an administrator applying a patch
or software update across thousands of Solaris deployments can reboot them all the more quickly.

C and D is correct

# svccfg -s “system/boot-config:default” setprop config/fastreboot_default=true
# svcadm refresh svc:/system/boot-config:default

On an x86 based system, a fast reboot of the system bypasses the system firmware (BIOS or UEFI) and the boot loader processes. Fast Reboot and Panic Fast Reboot (a fast reboot of system after a system panic) are enabled by default on x86 platforms(http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26502_01/html/E28983/gktlr.html#ghsbc)

Hence. I confirm the correct answer is still C and D.

A and D is correct. For C (reboot -f can do the same job as described)

A – not true. Just try it.
B – true, because it says “fast reboot” be used after system panic. This is true, because after system panic you can use only panic fast reboot property, not fast reboot property. Also can be checked by testing this.
C – not true, because of reboot -f option from OBP
D – true (explained in the answer above)
E – not true, in SPARC platforms this option is false by default

Correction:
B – true, because it says “fast reboot” cannot be used after system panic. This is true, because after system panic you can use only panic fast reboot property, not fast reboot property. Also can be checked by testing this.

Should be C & D

The Fast Reboot feature of Oracle Solaris is supported on both SPARC and x86 platforms. The Fast Reboot feature implements an in-kernel boot loader that loads the kernel into memory and then switches to that kernel, so that the reboot process occurs within seconds

C

Fast Reboot behavior on SPARC based systems is not enabled by default. To initiate a fast reboot of a SPARC based system, you must use the -f option with the reboot command. Or, to make a fast reboot the default behavior, you can set the config/fastreboot_default property to true.

C And D (reboot -f option is a forgetfulness from authors)

Hi!

Passed Oracle Solaris 11 Administration 1Z0-821 exam with a good score of 9X% (the passing line is 64% now)!

I had 70 questions in total, and questions were on:
1. Installing Oracle Solaris 11 using an Interactive Installer
2. Administering Services
3. Setting Up and Administering Data Storage
4. Administering Oracle Solaris Zones
5. Setting Up and Administering User Accounts
6. Controlling Access to Systems and Files
(New) 7. Managing the SYSLOG facilityManaging the CRON facility
(New) 8. Managing the SYSLOG facility

Pay close attention to the up 7 & 8 topics when preparing for the 1Z0-821 exam. Questions on those two topics are not available on this site.

And, you can refer to the most valid 1Z0-821 dumps (2017 version) here:

http://www.oraclebraindump.com/?s=1Z0-821

(Those questions are part of PassLeader 1Z0-821 dumps, recommend to get its full version 1Z0-821 dumps with VCE and PDF.)

Good Luck!
