Which two statements are correct about the Repository Explorer? (Choose two.) Choose 2 answers

The Repository Explorer in Pentaho Data Integration (PDI) is the primary interface for managing content stored within the Pentaho Repository. Its core purpose is to provide file management and version control functionalities. Users can perform standard organizational tasks such as moving, renaming, and deleting repository objects like jobs and transformations. Additionally, to support multi-user collaboration and prevent conflicting edits, the Repository Explorer allows users to manually lock and unlock these assets. Creating new jobs/transformations is done in the main design canvas, and managing JDBC drivers is a separate configuration task.

A. New jobs and transformations are created using the "File > New" menu in the main Spoon application canvas, not directly within the Repository Explorer pane.

C. JDBC drivers are not uploaded via the Repository Explorer. They must be manually placed in the appropriate library directory (e.g., .../data-integration/lib) of the PDI client.

1. Hitachi Vantara Documentation - Work with the Pentaho Repository in PDI: This official guide details the functionalities of the Repository Explorer.

For option B (Move

Rename

Delete): The sections "Move Files and Folders

" "Rename Files and Folders

" and "Delete Files and Folders" explicitly describe these capabilities.

For option D (Lock

Unlock): The section "Lock and Unlock Files" states

"When you open a file from the Pentaho Repository

it is automatically locked... You can also manually lock and unlock files."

For option A (Create): The document shows that creating new content is initiated from the main "File" menu

not the explorer.

2. Hitachi Vantara Documentation - Work with Database Connections: This document explains the prerequisite for database connectivity.

For option C (JDBC Drivers): The section "Prerequisites" clearly states

"The appropriate database driver for the connection must be installed in the .../data-integration/lib folder for the PDI client..." This confirms driver management is a file-system-level task

not a Repository Explorer function.
