Glossary for Microsoft System Center 2012 Configuration Manager Application Administrator A security role that grants permissions to administrative users so that they can perform both the Application Deployment Manager role and the Application Author role. Application Deployment Manager A security role that grants permissions to administrative users so that they can deploy and monitor applications. http://blogs.technet.com/b/hhoy/archive/2012/03/07/role-based-administration-in-system-center-2012-configuration-manager.aspx
Role-Based Administration in System Center 2012 Configuration Manager In Configuration Manager 2012, Security Roles are used to collectively group objects and permissions (operations) for assignment to an Administrator. Instead of an individual permission set on a single instance of object, the Security Role provides a single Role assignment to an administrator; reducing the overall complexity with permission management. An “object” in the Security Role is something that you want to manage access to and “permission” is the operational functions, such as Read, Modify and Delete.

A. In a requirement rule, set Organization Unit = Sales.
B. In Client Settings, set Allow user to define their primary devices to False.
C. In a requirement rule, set Primary Device = True.
D. In Client Settings, set Allow user to define their primary devices to True.
Answer: C
Explanation:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg699365.aspx How to Manage User Device Affinity in Configuration Manager
You can define primary devices. These are typically the devices that users use on a daily basis to perform their work. When you create an affinity between a user and a device, you gain more software deployment options. For example, if a user requires Microsoft Office Visio, you can install it on the user’s primary device by using a Windows Installer deployment. However, on a device that is not a primary device, you might deploy Microsoft Office Visio as a virtual application. You can also use user device affinity to predeploy software on a user’s device when the user is not logged in. Then, when the user logs on, the application is already installed and ready to run.

Administrators currently apply software updates to servers manually.
You discover that Server4 was never updated.
You need to centrally manage software updates for all of the servers by using
Configuration Manager.
What should you do first?
A. Install a management point on Server5.
B. Configure IIS to support only HTTPS on Server6.
C. Install a management point on Server2.
D. Install Network Load Balancing (NLB) on Server3.
E. Install an enrollment proxy point on Server6.
F. Configure IIS to support only HTTP on Server3.
G. Configure the Exchange connector on Server3.
H. Install Network Load Balancing (NLB) on Server6.
I. Install a PXE-enabled protected distribution point on Server5.
J. Install the Windows Cluster service on Server3.
K. Install a PXE-enabled protected distribution point on Server4.
L. Install the Windows Cluster service on Server6.
M. Install Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) on Server3.
N. Install a protected distribution point on Server1.
O. Install a software update point on Server3.
Answer: M
Explanation:
A WSUS service will simplify and automate software updates for all servers from a single management interface.
Note: The software update point is required on the central administration site and on the primary sites in order to enable software updates compliance assessment and to deploy software updates to clients. The software update point is optional on secondary sites. The software update point site system role must be created on a server that has WSUS installed.

Reference: Determine Whether to Migrate Configuration Manager 2007 to System Center 2012 Configuration Manager
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg712991.aspx
Note:
In Microsoft System Center 2012 Configuration Manager, the built-in migration functionality replaces in-place upgrades of existing Configuration Manager infrastructure by providing a process that transfers data from active Configuration Manager 2007 sites. The functionality provided by migration helps you maintain investments that you have made in configurations and deployments while you can take full advantage of core changes in the product introduced in System Center 2012 Configuration Manager. These changes include a simplified Configuration Manager hierarchy that uses fewer sites and resources, and the improved processing by use of native 64-bit code that runs on 64-bit hardware.
Migration can transfer most data from Configuration Manager 2007.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg681981.aspx
Planning for Migration to System Center 2012 Configuration Manager
You must first install a System Center 2012 Configuration Manager hierarchy to be the destination hierarchy before you can migrate data from a supported source hierarchy.
After you install the destination hierarchy, configure the management features and functions that you want to use in your destination hierarchy before you start to migrate data.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg712313.aspx
Prerequisites for Migration in System Center 2012 Configuration Manager
To migrate from a supported source hierarchy, you must have access to each applicable Configuration Manager source site, and permissions within the System Center 2012 Configuration Manager destination site to configure and run migration operations.
Required Configurations for Migration
..
Data Gathering
To enable the destination site to gather data, you must configure the following two source site access accounts for use with each source site:
*
Source Site Account: This account is used to access the SMS Provider of the source site.
*
For a Configuration Manager 2007 SP2 source site, this account requires Read permission to all source site objects.
*
For a System Center 2012 Configuration Manager source site, this account requires Read permission to all source site objects, you grant this permission to the account by using role-based administration.
*
Source Site Database Account: This account is used to access the SQL Server database of the source site and requires Read and Execute permissions to the source site database.
You can configure these accounts when you configure a new source hierarchy, data gathering for an additional source site, or when you reconfigure the credentials for a source site. These accounts can use a domain user account, or you can specify the computer account of the top-level site of the destination hierarchy.

Q9. Your company uses System Center 2012 Configuration Manager to distribute operating system images. The standard operating system for client computers is Windows 7 Enterprise (x86).
You receive 300 new desktop computers. Each computer has a new storage controller.
When you attempt to deploy an existing image to one of the computers, you receive an error message indicating that a storage device cannot be found during the pre-boot deployment phase.
You need to ensure that you can deploy Windows 7 to the new computers by using an image.
What should you do?
A. Import the storage drivers to the Drivers container and update the task sequence.
B. Create a new x64 boot image and configure the operating system image to use the x64 boot image.
C. Create a new driver package and update the task sequence.
D. Update the existing x86 boot image to include the storage drivers.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Planning a Device Driver Strategy in Configuration Manager You can add Windows device drivers that have been imported into the driver catalog to boot images. Use the following guidelines when you add device drivers to a boot image:
*
Add only mass storage and network adapter device drivers to boot images because other types of drivers are not generally required. Drivers that are not required increase the size of the boot image unnecessarily.
*
Add only device drivers for Windows 7 to a boot image because the required version of Windows PE is based on Windows 7.
*
Ensure that you use the correct device driver for the architecture of the boot image. Do not add an x86 device driver to an x64 boot image.
