I think we will loose points if we are getting RIB-Failure routes in the lab exam, so I think we have to prefer the BGP routes and to change the administrative distance for the iBGP routes! Is this the right solution?
   
  Thanks

  What are you trying to accomplish exactly? If you want to use the BGP 
routes as primary versus the IGP routes, you can set the 
administrative distance higher for the IGP learned routes. Suppress- 
inactive will keep the BGP peer from re-advertising those RIB-failure 
routes to another peer. RIB-Failure isn't necessarily a problem...
