Hi
Actually i am preparing for my ITIL Service Manager Exam (ITIL V2) and not sure which are the exact aktivities of the Service Level Management Process.
I found several explanations:
the OGC book lists the following:
- Planing of the Process
- Implementation of the Process
- Implementation of SLAs (create Service Catalog and SLA, check OLAs and UCs and so on)
- Management of the working Process (Monitoring, Report, Review)
- periodical Revision (Review of SLAs, OLAs and UCs and Review of the SLM-process)
My little ITSM Advanced Pocket Book (Serview GmbH) focusses the working Process and lists the following:
- Identifying the Service Requirements
- Defining Service Specifications (Service Spec Sheets)
- SLAs (Service Catalog, SLAs, OLAs, UCs)
- Monitoring (Service Achievements)
- Reporting (Service Level Reports)
- Reviews
Im not sure, which activities are to name in the exam if the question is: "Name the activitites of the Service Level Mgmt Process"

Hi
There's rarely a question on the v2 managers exam which asks you to list things, because all that proves is you can remember stuff.
What's more likely is a question asking you to explain the activities involved in SLM. This allows you to show that you understand the activities, rather than being able to remember them, so unless you've got an evil examiner, you should get marks even if you don't use the exact phrase from the text book.
Hope that helps

The thing about the ITIL exams is no matter how hard to prepare for them, you always end up putting twice as much effort into forgetting the experience afterwards _________________ Mick Smith
