Configuring Windows Server 2008 Applications Platform
Multiple Choice
Select the correct answer for each of the following questions.
1. Which of the following services does a Windows Deployment Services client computer
use to locate a WDS server?
a. DHCP
b. DNS
c. Active Directory
d. WINS
In a properly configured WDS installation, the client operating system deploymentprocess begins with the client computer starting and, finding no local boot device,attempting to perform a network boot. The client computer connects to a DHCP serveron the network, from which it obtains a DHCPOFFER message containing an IP addressand other TCP/IP configuration parameters, plus the 060 PXEClient option containingthe name of a WDS server. The client then connects to the WDS server and is suppliedwith a boot image file, which it downloads using the Trivial File Transfer Protocol(TFTP).
2. Which of the following programs can you use to remove the machine-specific settingsfrom a Windows computer prior to creating an image file?
a. ImageX.exe
b. Sysprep.exe
c. Windows Deployment Services
d. Windows SIM
When you run the sysprep /generalize command, all machine-specific settings areremoved from the computer configuration, such as the security ID (SID) and all hardwaresettings. This enables you to create an image file that does not include settings that willcause network conflicts when you apply it to multiple computers.
3. Which of the following configuration passes runs only when you execute the
sysprep/generalize command?
a. windowsPE
b. offlineServicing
c. specialize
d. oobeSystem
The generalize configuration pass, and its accompanying specialize configuration pass,run only when you execute the sysprep /generalize command.
4. Which of the following tools can you notrun on a Windows Server 2008 Server Coreinstallation?
a. Task Manager
b. Notepad
c. DiskPart
d. Server Manager
With so much of the operating system missing, a computer running Server Core candevote more of its resources to its server functions. However, the missing elements
provide most of the traditional Windows Server management and administration tools. Afew graphical applications can still run on Server Core. Notepad still works, so you canedit scripts and batch files. Task Manager runs, enabling you to load programs and

monitor processes. Some elements of the Control Panel work as well, including the Dateand Time application and the Regional and Language Options.
5. Which of the following programs do you use to create a Windows PE disk image?
a. Oscdimg.exe
b. ImageX.exe
c. Diskpart.exe
d. Copype.cmd
You create a Windows PE boot disk image by typing the following command andpressing Enter: oscdimg -n bc:\winpe\etfsboot.comc:\winpe\ISO c:\winpe\winpe.iso.
6. During which configuration pass should an answer file for a Windows Server 2008installation create the system disk partition?
a. windowsPE
b. oobeSystem
c. generalize
d. offlineServicingThe windowsPE configuration pass configures options used during the Windows PE
phase of the installation process including the selection, partitioning, and formatting ofthe system disk.
7. Which of the following is notrequired to implement a Windows Deployment Servicesserver?
a. DHCP
b. DNS
c. Active Directory Domain Services
d. Active Directory Certificate Services
The Add Roles Wizard enforces no dependencies for the Windows Deployment Servicesrole, but the role has several other prerequisites. The Windows Deployment Servicescomputer must be a member of, or a domain controller for, an Active Directory domain,the network must have an operational DHCP server that is accessible by the WDS clients,and a DNS server must be on the network for the WDS server to function.
8. Which of the following editions of the Windows Server 2008 operating system cansupport up to 64 processors?
a. Windows Server 2008 Enterprise
b. Windows Server 2008 Datacenter (x86)
c. Windows Server 2008 Datacenter (x64)
d. Windows Server 2008 Itanium
Windows Server 2008 Enterprise supports up to 8 processors. The Datacenter editionsupports 32 x86 processors or 64 x64 processors. The Itanium edition supports up to 64
processors.
9. When using Windows AIK, which of the following tasks do you perform on thetechnician computer?
a. Create a Windows PE boot disk
b. Create an answer file
c. Create an image file

Configuring Windows Server 2008 Applications Platform
d. Deploy an image file
The technician computer is where you install Windows AIK, create and configure answerfiles, and then create a Windows PE boot disk. You use the master computer to capture animage file, and you deploy the image on the new computers you want to deploy.
10. How many computers can you inventory with Microsoft Assessment and PlanningSolution Accelerator (MAP) using SQL Server Express 2005?
a. Up to 5,000
b. Up to 10,000
c. Up to 20,000
d. Up to 50,000
MAP can inventory up to 20,000 computers using SQL Server Express 2005. To
inventory more than 20,000 computers, you must use SQL Server Standard 2005.
