What are two benefits of using an Events Service cluster? (Choose two.)
Answer: B, E
An Events Service cluster can scale horizontally by adding nodes as storage requirements grow. It also replicates data across nodes, providing redundancy and helping protect data if a node fails.

Question 2 · Platform Installation and Administration Open
Which two user accounts does the AppDynamics Controller create during installation? (Choose two.)
Answer: D, E
Controller installation establishes the initial Controller administrator using the supplied administrator username and configures the built-in GlassFish administrator account, which provides access to the GlassFish console and the `asadmin` utility. REST API access uses Controller user credentials rather than a distinct installation-created REST API user.

Question 3 · Pre-Deployment Planning Open
Which AppDynamics Controller port or ports must the EUM Server be able to access when the EUM Server and Controller are installed on separate hosts (a split-host configuration)?
Answer: C
The EUM Server communicates with the AppDynamics Controller through the Controller’s primary HTTP or HTTPS listener. Direct access to the Controller database and GlassFish administration port is not required; dedicated EUM HTTP(S) ports are listener ports on the EUM Server itself.
