QUESTION 284
You have a server named Server1 that runs a Server Core Installation of Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter.
You have a WIM file that contains the four images of Windows Server 2012 R2 as shown in the Images exhibit. (Click the Exhibit button.)
You review the installed features on Server1 as shown in the Features exhibit. (Click the Exhibit button.)
You need to install the Server Graphical Shell feature on Server1.
Which two possible sources can you use to achieve this goal? (Each correct answer presents a complete solution. Choose two.)
A. Index 1
B. Index 2
C. Index 3
D. Index 4
Answer: BD
Explanation:
When you install Windows Server 2012 R2 you can choose between Server Core Installation and Server with a GUI. The “Server with a GUI” option is the Windows Server 2012 R2 equivalent of the Full installation option available in Windows Server 2008 R2. The “Server Core Installation” option reduces the space required on disk, the potential attack surface, and especially the servicing requirements, so we recommend that you choose the Server Core installation unless you have a particular need for the additional user interface elements and graphical management tools that are included in the “Server with a GUI” option. For this reason, the Server Core installation is now the default. Because you can freely switch between these options at any time later, one approach might be to initially install the Server with a GUI option, use the graphical tools to configure the server, and then later switch to the Server Core Installation option.

QUESTION 288
Your network contains an Active Directory domain named adatum.com. The domain contains a member server named Host1. Host1 runs Windows Server 2012 R2 and has the Hyper-V server role installed.
Host1 hosts two virtual machines named VM5 and VM6. Both virtual machines connect to a virtual switch named Virtual1.
On VM5, you install a network monitoring application named Monitor1.
You need to capture all of the inbound and outbound traffic to VM6 by using Monitor1.
Which two commands should you run from Windows PowerShell? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose two.)
A. Get-VM “VM6” | Set-VMNetworkAdapter-IovWeight 1
B. Get-VM “VM5” | Set-VMNetworkAdapter -IovWeight 0
C. Get-VM “VM6” | Set-VMNetworkAdapter -PortMirroring Source
D. Get-VM “VM6” | Set-VMNetworkAdapter -AllowTeaming On
E. Get-VM “VM5” | Set-VMNetworkAdapter -PortMirroring Destination
F. Get-VM “VM5” | Set-VMNetworkAdapter -AllowTeaming On
Answer: CE
Explanation:
-PortMirroring specifies the port mirroring mode for the network adapter.
This can be set to None, Source, and Destination.
If set to Source, a copy of every network packet it sends or receives is forwarded to a virtual network adapter configured to receive the packets. If set to Destination, it receives copied packets from the source virtual network adapter.
In this scenario, VM5 is the destination which must receive a copy of the network packets from VM6, which s the source.

The domain contains 200 Group Policy objects (GPOs) and 100 WMI filters.
An administrator named Admin1 must be able to create new WMI filters and edit all of the existing WMI filters from the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC).
You need to delegate the required permissions to Admin1.
The solution must minimize the number of permissions assigned to Admin1.
What should you do?
A. From Active Directory Users and Computers, add Admin1 to the WinRMRemoteWMIUsers__group.
B. From Group Policy Management, assign Creator Owner to Admin1 for the WMI Filters container.
C. From Active Directory Users and Computers, add Admin1 to the Domain Admins group.
D. From Group Policy Management, assign Full control to Admin1 for the WMI Filters container.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Users with Full control permissions can create and control all WMI filters in the domain, including WMI filters created by others.
Users with Creator owner permissions can create WMI filters, but can only control WMI filters that they create.

QUESTION 290
Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain contains an organizational unit (OU) named AHServers.OU.
You create and link a Group Policy object (GPO) named GP01 to AllServer.OU. GPO1 is configured as shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibit button.)
You need to ensure that GPO1 only applies to servers that have Remote Desktop Services (RDS) installed.
What should you configure?
A. Item-level targeting
B. WMI Filtering
C. Security Filtering
D. Block Inheritance
Answer: B
Explanation:
Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) filters allow you to dynamically determine the scope of Group Policy objects (GPOs) based on attributes of the target computer. When a GPO that is linked to a WMI filter is applied on the target computer, the filter is evaluated on the target computer. If the WMI filter evaluates to false, the GPO is not applied. If the WMI filter evaluates to true, the GPO is applied.

QUESTION 292
Your network contains a Hyper-V host named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2012 R2.
Server1 hosts a virtual machine named VM1 that runs Windows Server 2012 R2.
You create a checkpoint of VM1, and then you install an application on VM1.
You verify that the application runs properly.
You need to ensure that the current state of VM1 is contained in a single virtual hard disk file.
The solution must minimize the amount of downtime on VM1.
What should you do?
A. From a command prompt run dism.exe and specify the /commit-image parameter.
B. From a command prompt, run dism.exe and specify the /delete-image parameter.
C. From Hyper-V Manager, delete the checkpoint.
D. From Hyper-V Manager, inspect the virtual hard disk.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Virtual machine snapshots are file-based snapshots of the state, disk data, and configuration of a virtualmachine at a specific point in time.
You can take multiple snapshots of a virtual machine, even while it is running.
You can then revert the virtual machine to any of the previous states by Applying a snapshot to the virtualmachine.
Taking a snapshot of a VM is to in essence freeze the current state and make it a parent disk based on currentstate, and at the same time create a child disk to capture all subsequent changes. – See more at:
Snapshots require adequate storage space.
Snapshots are stored as .avhd files in the same location at thevirtual hard disk.
Taking multiple snapshots can quickly consume a large amount of storage space.
When you use Hyper-V Manager to delete a snapshot, the snapshot is removed from the snapshot treebut the .avhd file is not deleted until you turn off the virtual machine.
