In a customer environment, there are two IBM Spectrum Protect servers, ORION and TITAN, managing the backups for the entire data center. Server to server communication has been configured, however command routing fails. Both these servers are reachable over the TCP/IP network. What is the first step to diagnose this problem?
Issue the command PING SERVER ORION from ORION server console.
Issue the command PING SERVER ORION from ORION server administrative command line.
Issue the command PING SERVER ORION from TITAN server administrative command line.

Correct answer: C
Explanation:
Open a command prompt, the server administrative command line, on the one server and ping the other server to make sure communication is active and that a firewall is not interferring. Note: The administrative command-line client is a program that runs on a file server, workstation, or mainframe. It is installed as part of the IBM Spectrum Protect server installation process. The administrative client can be accessed remotely. From the administrative client, you can issue any server commands. References: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21640744
