Q1. Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain contains more than 100 Group Policy objects (GPOs). Currently, there are no enforced GPOs.
You need to prevent all of the GPOs at the site level and at the domain level from being Applied to users and computers in an organizational unit (OU) named OU1.
You want to achieve this goal by using the minimum amount of administrative effort.
What should you use?
A. Dcgpofix
B. Get-GPOReport
C. Gpfixup
D. Gpresult
E. Gptedit.msc
F. Import-GPO
G. Restore-GPO
H. Set-GPInheritance
I. Set-GPLink
J. Set-GPPermission
K. Gpupdate
L. Add-ADGroupMember

Q2. You have a server named Served that runs Windows Server 2012 R2. You connect three new hard disks to Server 1.
You need to create a storage space that contains the three disks.
The solution must meet the following requirements:
. Provide fault tolerance if a single disk fails.
. Maximize the amount of useable storage space.
What should you create?
A. A spanned volume
B. A simple space
C. A parity space
D. A mirrored space
Answer: C
Explanation:
Simple space does not provide fault tolerance, neither does spanned volumes, whereas parity & mirrored spaces do. So the question is parity space or mirrored space to maximize the amount of useable storage space? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanned_volume Unlike RAID, spanned volumes have no fault- tolerance, so if any disk fails, the data on the whole volume could be lost. http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2012/10/storage-spaces-explained-a-greatfeaturewhen-itworks/ Storage Spaces explained: a great feature, when it works Three-way mirroring gives you less usable space than two-way mirroring, but can tolerate the failure of up to two disks at once.
Parity mirroring gives more usable space than either mirroring mode (a 20GB storage space configured with two-way mirroring will require about 40GB of physical disk space, but a 20GB parity storage space requires only about 30GB) but comes with the aforementioned performance hit. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj822938.aspx
Q3. You plan to deploy a file server to a temporary location.
The temporary location experiences intermittent power failures.
The file server will contain a dedicated volume for shared folders.
You need to create a volume for the shared folders. The solution must minimize the
likelihood of file corruption if a power failure occurs.
Which file system should you use?
A. NFS
B. FAT32
C. ReFS
D. NTFS
Answer: C
Explanation: The ReFS file system allows for resiliency against corruptions with the option to salvage amongst many other key features like Metadata integrity with checksums, Integrity streams with optional user data integrity, and shared storage pools across machines for additional failure tolerance and load balancing, etc.
Q4. Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain
contains a server named Server1. Server1 runs Windows Server 2012 R2.
You need to create 3-TB virtual hard disk (VHD) on Server1.
Which tool should you use?
A. New-StorageSubsytemVirtualDisk
B. New-VirtualDisk
C. Server Manager
D. Computer Management
Answer: B
Explanation:
NOT A Share and Storage will only let you create a VHD on a storage pool
NOT B Server Manager, can't find where to create this.
NOT C Is this powershell ? the command should be NEW-VHD
(http://blogs.technet.com/b/heyscriptingguy/archive/2013/06/07/powertip-create-a- new-vhd-with-windows-powershell.aspx)
D Computer management is the only valid yet non available answer.
I'd be left with C, hoping they'd have the good powershell command.
Note:
From @L_Ranger, Computer Management is not an option anymore.

Old explanation : D (Computer management)
For Server 2012:

For Server 2008:
http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/the-enterprise-cloud/build-vhds-offline-with-server-manager/ With the Server Manager snap-in, you can create and attach a .VHD file directly.

Q5. Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain contains a server named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2012 R2.
On a server named Server2, you perform a Server Core Installation of Windows Server 2012 R2. You join Server2 to the contoso.com domain.
You need to ensure that you can manage Server2 by using the Computer Management console on Server1.
What should you do on Server2?
A. Run sconfig.exe and configure remote management.
B. Run sconfig.exe and configure Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT).
C. Install Windows Management Framework.
D. Install Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT).
Answer: A
Explanation:
In Windows Server 2012, you can use the Server Configuration tool (Sconfig.cmd) to configure and manage several common aspects of Server Core installations. You must be a member of the Administrators group to use the tool. Sconfig.cmd is available in the Minimal Server Interface and in Server with a GUI mode.

Q6. Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain contains a domain controller named DC1.
You run ntdsutil as shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibit button.)
You need to ensure that you can access the contents of the mounted snapshot.
What should you do?
A. From a command prompt, run dsamain.exe -dbpath c:\$snap_201204131056_volumec$\windows\ntds\ntds.dit -Idapport 33389.
B. From the snapshot context of ntdsutil, run mount {79f94f82-5926-4f44-8af0-2f56d827a57d>.
C. From the snapshot context of ntdsutil, run activate instance "NTDS".
D. From a command prompt, run dsamain.exe -dbpath c:\$snap_201204131056_volumec$\windows\ntds\ntds.dit -Idapport 389.
Answer: A
Explanation:
This is a live DC, so 389 is already in use; 33389 would not be so is a valid port. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc753609(v=ws.10).aspx
Q7. Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. Domain controllers run either Windows Server 2003. Windows Server 2008 R2.or Windows Server 2012 R2.
A support technician accidentally deletes a user account named User1.
You need to use tombstone reanimation to restore the User1 account.
Which tool should you use?
A. Active Directory Administrative Center
B. Ntdsutil
C. Ldp
D. Esentutl
Answer: C
Explanation:
ADAC would be the perfect solution if this environment was in 2008 R2 functional level; however it is currently below that due to there being a Windows Server 2003 DC. This means you must use the LDP utility as previously. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831702.aspx
Q8. You have a server named SCI that runs a Server Core Installation of Windows Server 2012
R2.
Shadow copies are enabled on all volumes.
You need to delete a specific shadow copy. The solution must minimize server downtime.
Which tool should you use?
A. Shadow
B. Diskshadow
C. Wbadmin
D. Diskpart
Answer: B
Explanation: DiskShadow.exe is a tool that exposes the functionality offered by the
Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS).
The diskshadow command delete shadows deletes shadow copies.
Q9. Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. All servers run either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows Server 2012 R2. All client computers run either Windows 7 or Windows 8. The domain contains a member server named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2012 R2. Server1 has the File and Storage Services server role installed. On Server1, you create a share named Share1. You need to ensure that users can use Previous Versions to restore the files in Share1. What should you configure on Server1?
A. A data recovery agent
B. The Shadow Copies settings
C. The Recycle Bin properties
D. A Windows Server Backup schedule
Answer: B
Q10. Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain contains four servers named Server1, Server2, Server3, and Server4 that run Windows Server 2012 R2.
All servers have the Hyper-V server role and the Failover Clustering feature installed.
The servers are configured as shown in the following table.
You need to replicate virtual machines from Cluster1 to Cluster2.
Which three actions should you perform? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose three.)
A. From Hyper-V Manager on a node in Cluster2, create three virtual machines.
B. From Cluster2, add and configure the Hyper-V Replica Broker role.
C. From Failover Cluster Manager on Cluster1, configure each virtual machine for replication.
D. From Cluster1, add and configure the Hyper-V Replica Broker role.
E. From Hyper-V Manager on a node in Cluster2/ modify the Hyper-V settings.
Answer: B,C,D
Explanation:
These are two clusters, to replicate any VM to a cluster you need to configure the Replica Broker role on each cluster the last step should be enabling replication on the VMs.
