Solution
How do I know if I am ready to take the exam? Nothing can guarantee that you will pass your test, however; the more
practical work experiences you have and the more training you complete, the
better your chances are to pass the test.
Since Adobe exams measure knowledge and skills for a specific job role, one of
the best ways to prepare for the exam is to ensure you have the minimum work
experience, as described in this guide.
What training is available to help me prepare for the exam?
Is training required? You are not required to complete training before taking the exam; however,
training can significantly increase your knowledge of and skills with Adobe
Experience Manager. It is important to note that training alone will not provide
you with the knowledge and skills required to pass an exam. Successful,
on-the-job experience, is critical to providing you the knowledge needed to pass
the exam.

QUESTION 1
Which two mechanisms are explicitly monitored to determine death of a cluster member? (Choose two.)
A. garbage collection
B. stuck threads
C. heartbeats
D. TCP socket connections
Answer: C,D
Explanation:
Explanation
Death detection works by creating a ring of TCP connections between all cluster members.
TCP communication is sent on the same port that is used for cluster UDP communication.
Each cluster member issues a unicast heartbeat, and the most senior cluster member issues the cluster heartbeat,
which is a broadcast message. Each cluster member uses the TCP connection to detectthe death of another node
within the heartbeat interval. Death detection is enabled by default and is configured within the <tcp-ring-listener> element.
