QUESTION 1
You work as the network administrator at Certkiller .com. The Certkiller .com network consists of a single Active Directory domain named Certkiller .com. All servers on the Certkiller .com network run Windows Server 2003 and all client computers run Windows XP Professional.
Certkiller .com contains an application server named Certkiller -SR23.
Certkiller -SR23 runs an in-house application which is critical to the company’s business process. Certkiller -SR23 contains a single physical drive that is divided into two partitions with the drive letter C and D. Both partitions are formatted as FAT32. The in-house application is installed on drive D.
During monitoring you notice that the drive D is low on free disk space. You need to create extra space for the in-house application. To maintain the functionality of the
in-house application, it cannot be moved.
You to add another physical disk drive to Certkiller -SR23. You need the disk space on the new disk drive to be available as storage space for the in-house application.
What should you do? (Select all that apply)

A. On Certkiller -SR23, initialize the new disk as a basic disk. B. On Certkiller -SR23, convert drive D to NTFS.
C. On Certkiller -SR23, format the new disk with NTFS. D. On Certkiller -SR23, format the new disk with FAT32.
E. On Certkiller -SR23, convert the disk that hosts drive D to a dynamic disk.
F. On Certkiller -SR23, extend drive D to include unallocated space on the new disk. Answer: B, E, F
Explanation:
In this case you must host drive D to a dynamic disk and convert drive D to NTFS.
If drive D contains unallocated space, you can extend drive D to include the unallocated space. Drive D can also be extended to use the unallocated space in the new disk.
Incorrect answers:
A: There is no need to initialize the new disk as a basic disk. You can initialize the new disk directly to dynamic disk.
C, D: To add the space on the new disk to drive D, you can create a spanned or a simple volume. To do this both of the disks must be dynamic disks and drive D should be
formatted as NTFS. Only unformatted volumes or volumes that are formatted with NTFS
can be extended.

QUESTION 2
You work as the network administrator at Certkiller .com. The Certkiller .com network consists of a single Active Directory domain named Certkiller .com. All servers on the Certkiller .com network run Windows Server 2003 and all client computers run Windows XP Professional.

The Certkiller .com network contains a file server named Certkiller -SR12 that
contains confidential data. Certkiller -SR12 contains of a hard disk system that consists of a software-based RAID-5 volume. A Certkiller .com user named Mia Hamm works in the administrative office. Mia Hamm needs to access data on Certkiller -SR12 regularly. One day Mia Hamm complains that Certkiller -SR12 response is much slower that before.
During your investigation you discover that one of the hard disks in the RAID-5 volume on Certkiller -SR12 has failed. You need to improve the performance of Certkiller -SR12.
What should you do?

A. Replace the failed disk on Certkiller -SR12. Then, in the Disk Management, initialize the new disk, convert it into dynamic disk, and repair the volume.
B. In the Disk Management on Certkiller -SR12, break the RAID-5 volume and remove the failed disk. Then replace the failed disk and rebuild the RAID-5 volume.
C. Replace the failed disk on Certkiller -SR12. Then, in the Disk Management convert the new disk to dynamic and format it by using NTFS.
D. Replace the failed disk on Certkiller -SR12 and then reboot the computer. Answer: A
Explanation: In this case you must replace the failed disk. Initializing the disk means to write a master boot record and a disk signature. The disk should be
converted into dynamic volumes. Only dynamic volumes can work in RAID-5. You should then right click the region of the failed RAID-5 volume and select Repair Volume.
Incorrect answers:
B: You cannot break RAID-5 volume. Only a RAID-1 or mirrored volume can be broken.
C: You cannot format a disk, only volumes can be formatted.
D: This will not work. Only unallocated space on a dynamic disk can be used to repair a
RAID-5 volume with failed redundancy.

QUESTION 3
You work as the network administrator at Certkiller .com. All servers on the Certkiller .com network run Windows Server 2003 and all client computers run Windows XP Professional.
The Certkiller .com network contains a SQL Server 2000 named Certkiller -DB20. All of the hard disks of Certkiller -DB20 are dynamic disks. Certkiller -DB20
hosts a database named CKCustomersDB that is located on a RAID-5 volume. The transaction logs for CKCustomersDB are hosted on a separate mirrored volume. Certkiller .com users access CKCustomersDB through an in-house client application. One day Certkiller -DB20 suffers a hardware failure that does not affect the hard
disk subsystems. You receive instruction to move the hard disk subsystem from Certkiller -DB20 to a new SQL Server 2000 computer named Certkiller -DB21. You move the disks that host the RAID-5 volume with CKCustomersDB and the

disks that host the mirrored transaction logs to Certkiller -SR21. You want the
users to access CKCustomersDB without making changes to the in-house client application.
What should you do?

A. On Certkiller -DB21, reactivate the hard disks in Disk Management. B. On Certkiller -DB21, repair the hard disks in Disk Management.
C. On Certkiller -DB21, import the foreign disks in Disk Management. D. On Certkiller -DB21, initialize the hard disks in Disk Management.

Answer: C

Explanation: Moving the hard disks to a new computer will mark them as foreign disks. The volumes on the disks will not be accessible. To make it accessible you should import the foreign disks.
Incorrect answers:
A: You would have reactivated the disks if the disks become unavailable due to a hardware problem or if the data was corrupted. In this case it is not necessary.
B: Disks cannot be repaired, only RAID-5 volumes can be repaired.
D: Only new disks need to be initialized before they can be used. These disks were moved to the server and must be imported.

QUESTION 4
You work as the network administrator at Certkiller .com. The Certkiller .com network consists of a single Active Directory domain named Certkiller .com. All servers on the Certkiller .com network run Windows Server 2003 and all client computers run Windows XP Professional.
The Certkiller .com network contains a server named Certkiller -SR18.
Certkiller -SR18 has a single 120 GB hard disk drive named Disk0. Disk0 has been initialized as a basic disk and has been formatted with NTFS. The hard disk is partitioned into four logical partitions as shown in the following table:

Drive
Contents
Size
Free Space

C
System Volume
8 GB
4 GB

D
Application Data
40 GB
1 GB

E
User Data
40 GB
12 GB

F
None
32 GB
32 GB

Drive D is becoming full. You need to increase the disk space for the applications
data. However, the application on Drive D cannot be reconfigured to use free space from another volume.
