In-Depth Information
17. You want to manage your Server Core server with the Computer Management MMC.
Which of the following Computer Management snap-ins can be used without additional
configuration after configuring firewall rules? (Choose all that apply.)
a. Services
b. Device Manager
c. Shared Folders
d. Event Viewer
18. You run a third-party reporting program periodically on a domain controller to gather
Active Directory and file system statistics. The program usually runs for three hours and
must be run at various times to collect data during different usage periods. You have deter-
mined that running this application adversely affects performance of some critical services,
which is causing access problems for your users. What can you do to lessen the impact the
program has on services and users?
a. Inform your users of the times the program will be running and instruct them to use
other servers during those times.
b. Create a custom resource allocation policy that matches the name of the third-party
reporting program and limit the resources the program can use.
c. Use Task Scheduler to schedule the reporting program to run between 8 p.m. and 6 a.m.,
when use of the system is minimal.
d. Install another server to handle the workload of services affected by the reporting
program.
19. Your server has had several application failures and system crashes over the past month. You
suspect the frequency of problems is increasing and want to find out whether other events,
such as software or driver installations, might be one cause. Which tool should you use to
determine whether the problems are increasing in frequency and discover what other activ-
ities are occurring around the time of the failures?
a. Performance Monitor
b. Task Manager
c. Reliability Monitor
d. Event Viewer
20. You want to create a data collector set that monitors changes to the Registry and system and
application events. What should you include in the data collector set?
a.
Performance counters and counter alerts
b.
Counter alerts and event traces
c.
Event traces and system configuration
d.
System configuration and counter alerts
Case Projects
These projects are intended to be done in groups, and the solutions should be discussed and com-
pared among groups. Present the solutions to the class in groups, and discuss each group's solution.
Case Project 13-1: Devising a Backup Routine
You have three servers. Two are domain controllers that run only the AD DS and DNS
server roles, and you have split the FSMO roles between them. The third server is a
member server running a database application that gets around-the-clock use. Devise a
backup routine for each server, including what you will back up, what backup method you
use, where data is backed up, and how often backups are performed. Explain your choices.
