Practice Questions


Question 1

In Windows 2000, which of the following types of disk configurations can you create on a Windows 2000 Professional computer? [Choose all that apply.]

  • A. Mirrored volume

  • B. RAID-5 array

  • C. Spanned volume

  • D. Primary partition

A1:

Answers A, C, and D are correct. On a Windows 2000 Professional computer, you can create primary, extended, and logical partitions on a basic disk. You can also create mirrored, spanned, striped, and simple volumes on a dynamic disk. Windows 2000 Professional does not support RAID-5 or fault-tolerant arrays, thus answer B is incorrect.

Question 2

Dawn configured a RAID-5 array on one of her Windows 2000 Servers that consists of seven 80GB SCSI hard disks. What amount of this space is required for use by the parity information?

  • A. 60GB

  • B. 80GB

  • C. 120GB

  • D. 132GB

A2:

Answer B is correct. RAID-5 arrays require all disks to have the same capacity. The parity information requires the capacity of one of the disks in the array, thus if Dawn uses seven 80GB disks to construct a RAID-5 array, she will have 480GB available for storage and 80GB used for the parity information. Thus, answers A, C, and D are incorrect.

Question 3

Andrea is the administrator in charge of your organization's Windows 2000/SQL 2000 servers. Last night, one of her SQL servers experienced a failure of one of the hard disks in its RAID-5 array. What must Andrea do to get the SQL server back into operation at full capability? [Choose all that apply.]

  • A. Edit the boot.ini file to reflect the location of the boot partition.

  • B. Replace the failed disk.

  • C. Perform a restoration of data from the most recent backup set.

  • D. Use Disk Management to repair the RAID-5 array.

A3:

Answers B and D are correct. Andrea needs only to replace the failed hard disk and then use the Disk Management utility to rebuild the RAID-5 array. Editing of the boot.ini file is only required when the primary disk in a mirrored set fails, thus answer A is incorrect. Because RAID-5 arrays are fault tolerant, no restoration of data using Windows Backup will be required. The parity information will be used by Windows 2000 to rebuild the data on the failed disk, thus answer C is incorrect.

Question 4

Christopher is a user in the advertising department of your organization. He routinely creates large files using desktop publishing applications. Today, when attempting to save a new catalog for an upcoming sales event, he was denied access to the disk he saves his files on with an out of space error. You configured disk quotas for all users to prevent misuse of disk space. What can you do to quickly remedy the situation and allow Christopher (and Christopher only) more disk space?

  • A. Change the disk quota settings for the organizational unit (OU) that Christopher belongs to with the Group Policy Editor.

  • B. Change the disk quota settings for Christopher from his user account properties in Active Directory Users and Computers.

  • C. Move Christopher's home directory to another file server without disk quotas in place.

  • D. Change the disk quota settings for Christopher in the Quota Entries window.

A4:

Answer D is correct. Disk quota settings can be configured manually for a variety of reasons from the Quota Entries window. Disk quotas are not controlled in Group Policy, thus answer A is incorrect. Disk quotas are not controlled in the user properties in Active Directory Users and Computer either, thus answer B is incorrect. Moving Christopher's home directory to another server will fix the problem, but is not the best ( easiest ) solution, thus answer C is incorrect.

Question 5

Hannah is the administrator responsible for the Windows 2000 file servers in your organization. She wants to use file and folder compression on her file servers, but does not see the option to enable it. What is the most likely cause of this problem?

  • A. Hannah does not have the NTFS file system on her file servers.

  • B. Hannah is not a member of the Enterprise Admins group.

  • C. Hannah is not using a RAID-5 array on her file servers.

  • D. Hannah is using disk quotas on her file servers.

A5:

Answer A is correct. Use of the NTFS file and folder compression feature requires the NTFS file system to be in place on the disks to be used. Being a member of the Enterprise Admins group is not required to enable compression, thus answer B is incorrect. The use of a RAID-5 array is not required for usage of file and folder compression, thus answer C is incorrect. The usage of disk quotas on a server does not affect the use of file and folder compression, thus answer D is incorrect. Disk quotas are, however, based on uncompressed file sizes.

Question 6

Austin is the administrator in your organization that is responsible for the Windows 2000 backup servers. All of Austin's backup servers are running Windows 2000 Server with a two-disk mirrored set. The morning following a power outage in your building, Austin reports to you that the primary disk in one of his mirrored sets failed. What will you tell Austin to do to correct the problem in the quickest manner? [Choose all that apply.]

  • A. Edit the boot.ini file on the secondary disk to reflect the location of the boot partition.

  • B. Replace the failed disk.

  • C. Perform a restoration of data from the most recent backup set.

  • D. Create a Windows 2000 boot disk and ensure that the boot.ini file on it points to the secondary disk.

A6:

Answers B and D are correct. Austin needs to create a Windows 2000 boot disk that has the boot.ini file pointing to the secondary disk in the mirror. After restarting Windows 2000 and breaking the mirror, Austin needs to replace the disk, restart Windows, and re-create the mirror. There is no boot.ini file on a secondary mirrored disk, thus answer A is incorrect. No data restoration should be required as the secondary mirrored disk has the data intact, thus answer C is incorrect.

Question 7

Jeff is the IIS server administrator for your organization. He currently has all of his IIS servers running with RAID-5 arrays that use hot-swappable hard disks. This morning he discovered that one of his IIS servers had a disk failure on one of its RAID-5 array disks. Jeff installed a new hard disk in the IIS server. What does he need to do now to get Windows 2000 to recognize the new disk?

  • A. Restart the IIS server.

  • B. Open Disk Management and rescan his disks.

  • C. Use the Add/Remove Hardware Wizard.

  • D. Create a new RAID-5 array.

A7:

Answer B is correct. Using the rescan disks command in Disk Management will allow his newly installed disk to be recognized by Windows. After this, he can rebuild the existing RAID-5 array. Restarting the IIS server will cause the new disk to be recognized, but it is not recommended or required in the case of hot-swappable disks, thus answer A is incorrect. Using the Add/Remove Hardware Wizard is not required in this case, thus answer C is incorrect. Creating a new RAID-5 array is not required, thus answer D is incorrect.

Question 8

Joe is a member of your graphic art department. He frequently stores large files on his Windows 2000 Professional computer while he is still editing them. He would like to implement some form of fault tolerance for his data. Joe currently has two 60GB hard disks installed in his computer. What should you do to Joe's computer to implement fault tolerance with the least administrative effort?

  • A. Upgrade his Windows 2000 Professional computer to Windows 2000 Server and create a mirrored volume for him.

  • B. Upgrade his basic disks to dynamic disks and create a mirrored set from them.

  • C. Install a SCSI controller card and three SCSI external hard disks. Create a RAID-5 array from these external hard disks.

  • D. Create a RAID-5 array on his computer using the two installed 60GB disks.

A8:

Answer A is correct. The easiest course of action would be to upgrade Joe's basic disks to dynamic disks and then create a mirrored set out of them. Windows 2000 Professional does not support mirrored sets; therefore, answer B is incorrect. Installing a SCSI controller card and three external SCSI hard disks for a RAID-5 array will solve the problem as well, but is not the least amount of effort, thus answer C is incorrect. You cannot create a RAID-5 array on a Windows 2000 Professional computer, nor can you create one with less than three disks, thus answer D is incorrect.

Question 9

Rick is a user in the administrative department of your organization. Rick complains to you today that he is out of disk space to save his files. Upon further investigation, you find that he has completely used his disk quota allowance of 200MB, with more than 175MB being used by MP3 files that you suspect he has downloaded from the Internet. You do not want Rick to be able to fill your file servers with MP3s. What should you do to put a stop to this problem with the least administrative effort?

  • A. Move Rick's user account into the Guest group.

  • B. Manually configure Rick's quota settings from the Quota Entries window.

  • C. Manually configure Rick's quota settings from the properties dialog box of his user account in Active Directory Users and Computers.

  • D. Remove Rick's computer from the network.

A9:

Answer B is correct. The easiest way to correct this problem without preventing Rick from being able to accomplish his assigned work will be to manually configure the quota settings for his account from the Quota Entries window. Moving Rick's user account into the Guest group will most likely cause more problems than it fixes and will not fix this particular problem, thus answer A is incorrect. Disk quota settings are not configured from Active Directory Users and Computers, thus answer C is incorrect. Removing Rick's computer from the network, while tempting, will most likely prevent him from being able to accomplish his assigned work, thus answer D is incorrect.

Question 10

Chris is attempting to configure disk quotas for her Windows 2000 file server. All user documents are stored in a shared folder named "Users," which is located in the root of Volume C on the server. When she opens the Properties page for the Users folder, she does not see a tab for disk quotas. What is the most likely reason?

  • A. Disk quotas must be enabled at the root of the volume, not at a folder level.

  • B. Only Domain Admins can enable disk quotas.

  • C. Disk quotas can only be enabled on NTFS 5.0 volumes.

  • D. Disk quotas must be enabled using a local Administrator account, not a domain-based Administrator account.

A10:

Answer A is correct. Chris is attempting to place a disk quota on a subfolder instead of the volume root, thus she will not see the Quota tab of the Properties dialog box. Chris needs to enable the quotas on the entire volume (C, in this case). You do not need to be a member of the Domain Admins group to enable disk quotas, thus answer B is incorrect. Although it is true that disk quotas can only be enabled on an NTFS 5.0 volume, the problem is that Chris is attempting to enable a quota on a folder on the volume, not on the volume itself. Therefore, answer C is incorrect in this case. You do not have to log on with a local Administrator account to enable disk quotas, you only need to have Administrative privileges, thus answer D is incorrect.
