Pegasystems Certified Lead System Architect (CLSA) 6.2V2 Sample Questions:

1. In which situations would you typically use rule check-in approval? (Choose Two)

A) To control who can update rules
B) To control changes to rules delegated directly in production
C) To track interface changes for connectors
D) When business logic requires a manager to review a work item
E) To review rule changes made by system architects

2. Review the following requirement:
As part of a process you would like to display information, such as contact details and organizational affiliation, about the operator that initiated the process. The information is strictly read-only.
Given the above requirements which of the following approaches is most appropriate? (Choose One)

A) Use a thread scope declarative page to load the operator
B) Use a declare trigger to copy this information to the work object on each update
C) Use the pxCreateOperator linked property
D) Create a page property with the auto populate option selected for the operator
E) Load the operator as a top-level page in a flow action pre-activity (and remove it later)

3. Consider the following situation:
A PRPC application is running within a 1.2 GB JVM (Java Virtual Machine). There is approximatively 400 MB of free memory and garbage collector reclaims in average 32 MB of memory in the course of an hour.
The application is generating approximately 30 database alerts per minute. The database CPU runs at an average of 76% peaking periodically at 97%. The alert log file does not report any byte warning with a 10 MB threshold defined.
The Rules Assembly count is 0 when a typical interaction executes in average 74.6 rules. The application CPU peaks periodically at 20% but otherwise runs in average around 12%.
Users are complaining about poor performance. Their interactions take in average 4.15 seconds.
Which of the following approaches is most appropriate to resolve this issue? (Choose One)

A) Avoid retrieving the BLOB column during database interactions
B) Review the application profile log to determine which activities are taking the most time
C) Limit the number of database interactions by storing most data on a series of declare pages
D) Reduce the number of loop iterations executing on the large sets of data
E) Reconsider the database table indexes by reviewing query plans

4. The power company EnergyCo uses a PRPC-based Incident Management application with a single work type defined in the framework (class: EnergyCo-FW-IncMgt-Work-Incident). EnergyCo has four divisions (DivA - DivD). DivD has a new requirement: Solar Panel related incidents are stored in a separate table from other incidents. There is no Solar Panel specific class. In order to meet this new requirement, is it necessary to add a Solar Panel class? (Choose One)

A) Yes; it should only be added to the framework layer for greater reusability (e.g. EnergyCo-FW-IncMgt-Work-Incident-SolarPanel)
B) Yes; it should only be added to the implementation layer (e.g. "EnergyCo-DivD-IncMgt-Work-Incident-SolarPanel")
C) No; it is possible to circumstance based on an IncidentType property
D) No; a add a Solar Panel specific database table instance to the EnergyCo-DivD-IncMgt-Work-Incident class

5. An existing JAR of Java function to call proprietary services has been provided to your application team. Which of the following PRPC features is the best way to utilize the JAR? (Choose One)

A) EJB Connector
B) Java Connector
C) Java activity step
D) Function Rule
