Which Tableau Server process is being described? • Runs server tasks, including extract refreshes, subscriptions, ‘Run Now’ tasks • Tasks initiated from tabcmd
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
The Backgrounder process in Tableau Server is responsible for running all background and scheduled tasks that do not require immediate user interaction. This includes extract refreshes, subscriptions, “Run Now” jobs, and tasks triggered via tabcmd. Essentially, whenever a job is queued to run in the background rather than in real time, the Backgrounder processes and executes it. Other options are incorrect because the Application Server handles user authentication and UI requests, Ask Data supports natural language querying, and the Cache Server manages cached query results rather than executing background jobs.
Question 2
What is the minimum number of Tableau Server nodes required to satisfy High Availability (HA) requirements?
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
For Tableau Server High Availability (HA), the minimum requirement is 3 nodes. This is because HA requires redundancy for critical processes (like repository and file store) so that if one node fails, another can take over without downtime. With only two nodes, full HA cannot be achieved for all required services, so a third node is necessary to properly distribute and protect essential components.
Question 3
Which of the following are correct statements that describe silent installs? (Select all)
Correct Answer: B, C
Explanation:
A silent install of Tableau Server is performed without a graphical interface, typically using flags like /silent or /quiet. After installation, Tableau Server does not start automatically, meaning manual startup is required. This makes C correct. To start Tableau Server after installation, the correct command is tsm start, which is used to manage Tableau Services Manager operations, making B correct. Option A is incorrect because tbcmd start is not a valid command, and D is incorrect because /hush is not a recognized installation mode in Tableau Server.
