Q1. Your network contains two servers named Server1 and Server2 that run Windows Server 2012 R2. Server1 and Server2 have the Hyper-V server role installed. Server1 and Server2 are configured as Hyper-V replicas of each other.
Server2 hosts a virtual machine named VM5. VM5 is replicated to Server1.
You need to verify whether the replica of VM5 on Server1 is functional. The solution must ensure that VM5 remains accessible to clients.
What should you do from Hyper-V Manager?
A. On Server1, execute a Planned Failover.
B. On Server1, execute a Test Failover.
C. On Server2, execute a Planned Failover.
D. On Server2, execute a Test Failover.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Test Failover (TFO) is an operation initiated on your replica virtual machine (in this scenario on Server1) which allows you to test the sanity of the virtualized workload without interrupting your production workload or ongoing replication.
TFO is performed on the replica virtual machine by right-clicking on the VM and choosing the Test Failover operation (either from the Hyper-V Manager or from the Failover Clustering Manager).
Reference: Types of failover operations in Hyper-V Replica – Part I – Test Failover.
Q2. Your network contains three servers named HV1, HV2, and Server1 that run Windows Server 2012 R2. HV1 and HV2 have the Hyper-V server role installed. Server1 is a file server that contains 3 TB of free disk space.
HV1 hosts a virtual machine named VM1. The virtual machine configuration file for VM1 is stored in D:\VM and the virtual hard disk file is stored in E:\VHD.
You plan to replace drive E with a larger volume.
You need to ensure that VM1 remains available from HV1 while drive E is being replaced. You want to achieve this goal by using the minimum amount of administrative effort.
What should you do?
A. Perform a live migration to HV2.
B. Add HV1 and HV2 as nodes in a failover cluster. Perform a storage migration to HV2.
C. Add HV1 and HV2 as nodes in a failover cluster. Perform a live migration to HV2.
D. Perform a storage migration to Server1.
Answer: D
Explanation:
One of the great new features coming in Windows Server 2012 is Storage Migration for Hyper-V. Storage Migration allows an administrator to relocate the source files that make up a virtual machine to another location without any downtime.
Storage Migration creates a copy of the file or files at the new location. Once that is finished, Server 2012 does a final replication of changes and then the virtual machine uses the files in the new location.

G. The host priority
H. Live migration
I. The possible owner
J. The preferred owner
K. Quick migration
L. The Scale-Out File Server
Answer: E
Explanation:
File Server for general use
Note: You can deploy and configure a clustered file server by using either of the following methods:
* File Server for general use. This is the continuation of the clustered file server that has been supported in Windows Server since the introduction of Failover Clustering. This type of clustered file server, and therefore all the shares associated with the clustered file server, is online on one node at a time. This is sometimes referred to as active-passive or dual-active. File shares associated with this type of clustered file server are called clustered file shares. This is the recommended file server type when deploying information worker scenarios.
* Scale-Out File Server for application data This clustered file server feature was introduced in Windows Server 2012, and it lets you store server application data, such as Hyper-V virtual machine files, on file shares, and obtain a similar level of reliability, availability, manageability, and high performance that you would expect from a storage area network. All file shares are simultaneously online on all nodes. File shares associated with this type of clustered file server are called scale-out file shares. This is sometimes referred to as active-active. This is the recommended file server type when deploying either Hyper-V over Server Message Block (SMB) or Microsoft SQL Server over SMB.
Reference: Scale-Out File Server for Application Data Overview
Q11. Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain contains two member servers named Server1 and Server2. All servers run Windows Server 2012 R2.
Server1 and Server2 have the Failover Clustering feature installed. The servers are configured as nodes in a failover cluster named Guster1. Cluster1 contains a file server role named FS1 and a generic service role named SVC1. Server1 is the preferred node for FS1. Server 2 is the preferred node for SVC1.
You plan to run a disk maintenance tool on the physical disk used by FS1.
You need to ensure that running the disk maintenance tool does not cause a failover to occur.
What should you do before you run the tool?
A. Run Suspend-ClusterResource.
B. Run Suspend-GusterNode.
C. Run cluster.exe and specify the pause parameter.
D. Run cluster.exe and specify the offline parameter.
Answer: D
Q12. Your network contains an Active Directory forest named contoso.com. All servers run Windows Server 2012 R2.
The domain contains four servers. The servers are configured as shown in the following table.
You need to deploy IP Address Management (IPAM) to manage DNS and DHCP.
On which server should you install IPAM?
A. DC1
B. DC2
C. DC3
D. Server1
Answer: D
Explanation:
Explanaton: IPAM cannot be installed on Domain Controllers. All servers, except Server1, have the DC role
Reference: IP Address Management (IPAM) Overview http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831353.aspx
Q13. You have a server named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2012 R2.
Server1 has a single volume that is encrypted by using BitLocker Drive Encryption
(BitLocker).
BitLocker is configured to save encryption keys to a Trusted Platform Module (TPM).
Server1 is configured to perform a daily system image backup.
The motherboard on Server1 is upgraded.
After the upgrade, Windows Server 2012 R2 on Server1 fails to start.
You need to start the operating system on Server1 as soon as possible.
What should you do?
A. Start Server1 from the installation media. Run startrec.exe.
B. Move the disk to a server that has a model of the old motherboard. Start the server from the installation media. Run bcdboot.exe.
C. Move the disk to a server that has a model of the old motherboard. Start the server. Run tpm.msc.
D. Start Server1 from the installation media. Perform a system image recovery.
Answer: C
Explanation:
By moving the hard drive to server with that has a model of the old motherboard the system
would be able to start. As BitLocker was configured to save encryption keys to a Trusted
Platform Module (TPM), we can use tpm.msc to access the TPM settings.
Note: After you replaced the motherboard, you need to repopulate the TPM with new
information regarding the encryption of the hard disk.
We use these commands to repopulate the information in the TPM (without PIN):
manage-bde –delete -protectors C: -type TPM
manage-bde –protectors –add C: -tpm
Incorrect:
Not D. After the system image recovery you would still have the new motherboard installed.
The problem would return.

Q14. You have a server named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2012 R2. The storage on Server1 is configured as shown in the following table.
You plan to implement Data Deduplication on Server1.
You need to identify on which drives you can enable Data Deduplication.
Which three drives should you identify? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose three.)
A. C
B. D
C. E
D. F
E. G
Answer: B,D,E
Explanation:
Volumes that are candidates for deduplication must conform to the following requirements:
* Must not be a system or boot volume. (not A)
* Can be partitioned as a master boot record (MBR) or a GUID Partition Table (GPT), and must be formatted using the NTFS file system. (not C)
* Can reside on shared storage, such as storage that uses a Fibre Channel or an SAS array, or when an iSCSI SAN and Windows Failover Clustering is fully supported.
* Do not rely on Cluster Shared Volumes (CSVs). You can access data if a deduplication-enabled volume is converted to a CSV, but you cannot continue to process files for deduplication.
* Do not rely on the Microsoft Resilient File System (ReFS).
* Must be exposed to the operating system as non-removable drives. Remotely-mapped drives are not supported.

Q16. Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain contains two member servers named Server1 and Server2. All servers run Windows Server 2012 R2.
Server1 and Server2 have the Failover Clustering feature installed. The servers are configured as nodes in a failover cluster named Cluster1. Cluster1 contains a cluster disk resource.
A developer creates an application named App1. App1 is NOT a cluster-aware application. App1 runs as a service. App1 stores date on the cluster disk resource.
You need to ensure that App1 runs in Cluster1. The solution must minimize development effort.
Which cmdlet should you run?
A. Add-ClusterGenericServiceRole
B. Add-ClusterGenericApplicationRole
C. Add-ClusterScaleOutFileServerRole
D. Add-ClusterServerRole
Answer: B
Explanation:
Add-ClusterGenericApplicationRole
Configure high availability for an application that was not originally designed to run in a
failover cluster.
If you run an application as a Generic Application, the cluster software will start the
application, then periodically query the operating system to see whether the application
appears to be running. If so, it is presumed to be online, and will not be restarted or failed
over.
EXAMPLE 1.
Command Prompt: C:\PS>
Add-ClusterGenericApplicationRole -CommandLine NewApplication.exe
Name OwnerNode State
cluster1GenApp node2 Online Description
This command configures NewApplication.exe as a generic clustered application. A default name will be used for client access and this application requires no storage.
