You work as the network administrator at TestKing.com. The TestKing.com
network consists of a single Active Directory domain named testking.com. The
TestKing.com network contains six database servers named TESTKING-DB01
through TESTKING-DB06 that each run a database application named DataApp1.
The TestKing.com written policy requires that when a new user is added to
DataApp1, they must be added to the server that has the most available disk space.
TestKing.com hires ten new employees. The new employees will require access to
DataApp1. You need to add these users to DataApp1.
What should you do to ensure that you meet the written policy requirements when
you add the new users to DataApp1?
A. Review the application logs on each of the six database servers by using Event
Viewer.
B. Record the PhysicalDisk object on all six database servers by using Performance Logs
and Alerts.
C. Review the performance data on each of the six database servers by using Task
Manager.
D. Generate a histogram view of the LogicalDisk object on all six database servers by
using System Monitor.

Back 1

Answer: D
Explanation: System Monitor shows real-time performance data based on Object
counters, and can display the log data recorded by Performance Logs And Alerts
either in the form of Counter (interval polling) logs, or Trace (event-driven) logs.
Logs written by Performance Logs And Alerts can be loaded into System Monitor
for analysis. The System Monitor is designed for real-time reporting of data to a
console interface, and can be reported in graph, histogram, or numeric form. This
should aid you in ensuring that you meet the stated requirements.

You work as the network administrator at TestKing.com. The TestKing.com
network consists of a single Active Directory domain named testking.com. All
servers on the TestKing.com network run Windows Server 2003 and all client
computers run Windows XP Professional.
The TestKing.com network contains a file server named TESTKING-SR21.
TESTKING-SR21 has a 40-GB hard disk for system files and two 80-GB hard disks
for data. The 80-GB hard disks configured as mirrored volumes and contain 65-GB
of read-only data. TestKing.com users connect to TESTKING-SR21 by using
shortcuts on their desktops.
Due to the growth of the TestKing.com network, the performance of
TESTKING-SR21 has become inadequate. You receive instruction from the CIO to
replace TESTKING-SR21. The new server must contain the current data from
TESTKING-SR21. You disconnect TESTKING-SR21 from the network. You build
a replacement server and name it TESTKING-SR21.
You now need to bring the new server online and re-establish redundancy as
quickly as possible. You must also ensure that users can connect to
TESTKING-SR21 by using their existing desktop shortcuts.
What should you do?

You work as the network administrator at TestKing.com. The TestKing.com
network consists of a single Active Directory domain named testking.com. All
servers on the TestKing.com network run Windows Server 2003 and all client
computers run Windows XP Professional.
The TestKing.com network contains a file server named TESTKING-SR24.
TESTKING-SR24 has two hard disks. The hard disks are configured as shown in
the exhibit.
Disk 0 contains the system files and Disk 1 contains user data.
Should the data volume on Disk 1 be low on storage space, what would you do to
provide additional space for the data volume? (Choose two).
A. In Disk Management, extend the data volume to include unallocated disk space.
B. On the data volume, run the fsutil volume command.
C. Using Diskpart.exe, run the extend command on the data volume.
D. Select Disk 1 in Device Manager, select the Volumes tab, and click the Populate
button.

Back 3

Answer: A, C
Explanation: To increase a volume's capacity is to extend the volume. You can
extend a simple or spanned volume on a dynamic disk so long as that volume is
formatted as NTFS and so long as the volume is not the system or boot volume. And
this is done through Disk Management. We can also use the Extend command in
diskpart.exe to extend the volume.

Disk 0 contains the system files and Disk 1 contains user data.
Should the data volume on Disk 1 be low on storage space, what would you do to
provide additional space for the data volume? (Choose two).
A. In Disk Management, extend the data volume to include unallocated disk space.
B. On the data volume, run the fsutil volume command.
C. Using Diskpart.exe, run the extend command on the data volume.
D. Select Disk 1 in Device Manager, select the Volumes tab, and click the Populate
button.
You need to increase storage space on TESTKING-SR24 to accommodate the users
from StudyGuides.com. However, you cannot create any additional volumes.
How would you accomplish this task?
A. Convert drive G:\ to FAT32 and run the Extend command on it by using Diskpart.exe.
B. Convert drive C:\ to NTFS and run the Extend command on it by using Diskpart.exe.
C. Convert drive I:\ to NTFS and run the Extend command on it by using Diskpart.exe.
D. Convert drive E:\ to FAT32 and run the Extend command on it by using Diskpart.exe.

Back 4

Answer: C
Explanation: You can use the Diskpart.exe utility to manage disks, partitions, and
volumes from a command-line interface. You can use Diskpart.exe on both Basic
disks and Dynamic disks. If an NTFS volume resides on a hardware RAID 5
container that has the capability of adding space to the container, you can extend
the NTFS Volume with Diskpart.exe while the disk remains a Basic disk. You can
only extend NTFS volumes in Windows Server 2003. The volumes must also be
either spanned volumes or simple volumes. Therefore, the answer to this question is
to convert the spanned volume (volume I), then extend it.

QUESTION NO: 5
You work as the network administrator at TestKing.com. The TestKing.com
network consists of a single Active Directory domain named testking.com. All
servers on the TestKing.com network run Windows Server 2003 and all client
computers run Windows XP Professional.
The TestKing.com network contains a member server named TESTKING-SR34.
TESTKING-SR34 hosts several applications. TESTKING-SR34 has two 40-GB
hard disks that are configured as basic disks and formatted with NTFS. The two
disks are named Disk 0 and Disk 1. Each disk is connected to a separate controller.
System files are located on Disk 1.
You need to increase the storage space on TESTKING-SR34. You thus add a third
40-GB hard disk on TESTKING-SR34. You configure the new hard disk as a basic
disk and format it with NTFS.
However, when you restart TESTKING-SR34, you receive the following message:

"Windows could not start because of a computer disk hardware configuration
problem. Could not read the selected boot disk. Check boot path and disk
hardware. Please check Windows documentation about hardware disk
configuration and your hardware reference manuals for additional information."
You need to ensure that the applications on TESTKING-SR34 are available to
network users as soon as possible.
What should you do?
A. Use the Windows Server 2003 installation CD-ROM to restart TESTKING-SR34.
Then use the Recovery Console to repair the system.
B. Start TESTKING-SR34 in Safe Mode with Command prompt.
C. Use the Windows Server 2003 installation CD-ROM to restart TESTKING-SR34.
Press F6 to replace the Mass Storage driver.
D. Reconfigure the new disk drive so it is enumerated after the existing drives and restart
TESTKING-SR34.

Back 5

Answer: A
Explanation: Adding the extra hard disk has probably caused the problem. The
boot.ini file needs to be corrected to reflect the new disk configuration. We can use
the Bootcfg utility in the Recovery Console to correct this problem.
Use the Bootcfg utility in the Recovery Console to correct the Boot.ini file:
1. Use the Windows XP CD-ROM to start your computer.
2. When you receive the message to press R to repair Windows by using the Recovery
Console, press the R key.
3. Select the Windows installation that you want, and then type the administrator
password when prompted.
4. Type bootcfg /rebuild, and then press ENTER.
5. When the Windows installation is located, the following instructions are displayed:
Add installation to boot list? (Yes/No/All)

Remove Volume 2 from Disk 1 and restore it on Disk 0 by using the unused space on
Disk 0.
Create a 10-GB volume on Disk 1.

Back 6

Answer: B
Explanation: You are presented with two choices, one, you could move the
Application files from Disk 1 to Disk 0 or, two, you could move the boot files from
application files is a better option. It is not advisable to move the boot files. Because
you cannot convert basic disks to dynamic disks if they contain multiple
installations of Windows 2000, Windows XP Professional, or the Windows Server
2003 family of operating systems. Moreover, after the conversion, it is unlikely that
you will be able to start the computer using that operating system. After the disk is
converted to dynamic, you can start the operating system that you used to convert
the disk, but you will not be able to start the other operating systems on the disk.

computers run Windows XP Professional.
The TestKing.com network contains a file server named TESTKING-SR34.
TESTKING-SR34 has a 40-GB data volume that is mirrored. Each physical disk is
connected to a separate SCSI controller. A faulty SCSI controller causes one of the
hard disks in the mirrored volume to fail. You replace the faulty SCSI controller.
You now need to restore the data volume to its previous state.
What should you do to accomplish this task using the minimum amount of
administrative effort?
A. Run the diskpart active command on the failed volume.
B. Convert the two physical disks on TESTKING-SR34 to basic disks, and then restore
the data.
C. Break the mirror on TESTKING-SR34, and then re-create the mirror.
D. On TESTKING-SR34, select a disk in the mirror and reactivate the volume.

: To restore the volume, replace the failed disk, rescan the disks, and reactivate the disk.
If this doesn't make the volume healthy again, then right-click the volume and choose
Reactivate Volume. The computer will chug away for a couple of minutes, rebuilding the
missing data with the parity information on the remaining disks, and the stripe set will be
back in one piece. Thus if you select a disk in the mirror and then reactivate the volume
you will solve the problem in this case.
