RCA System Administration and Infrastructure 3

Question 1

Which SQL Server feature should be configured to ensure Relativity remains available if the primary database server fails?

Accepted Answer

Always On Availability Groups

Answer

SQL Server Always On Availability Groups are the recommended high-availability solution for Relativity, providing automatic failover and readable secondaries.

Question 2

An admin notices that Relativity agents are failing with 'Unable to connect to SQL Server' errors. What is the FIRST step to diagnose this?

Accepted Answer

Verify SQL Server is running and the connection string in Instance Settings is correct

Answer

Verifying SQL Server availability and the connection string in Instance Settings is the first diagnostic step for agent connectivity failures.

Question 3

What is the recommended practice for Relativity log file (LDF) placement on SQL Server?

Accepted Answer

Place LDF files on a dedicated high-speed sequential-write disk

Answer

LDF files generate sequential write I/O, so placing them on a dedicated high-speed disk prevents contention and optimizes transaction logging performance.

Question 4

In Relativity, what does the 'Invariant' service primarily manage?

Accepted Answer

File storage and native file streaming for the repository

Answer

Invariant is Relativity's file storage service that manages native files, images, and other binary assets stored in the file repository.

Question 5

A Relativity workspace is experiencing slow document loading in the viewer. After confirming SQL performance is normal, what should the admin check next?

Accepted Answer

Network bandwidth and latency between web servers and file repository

Answer

Viewer performance depends heavily on file retrieval from the repository; poor network connectivity between web servers and the file share causes slow document loading.
