A. Windows Validation
B. Volume Activation
C. Volume Activation 2.0
D Windows Genuine Advantage
Answer: C
Volume Activation (VA) 2.0 does not alter the terms of your license agreement with Microsoft in any way; it is simply a tool to simplify the activation process.

3. A __________ is a complete installation of an operating system that runs in a software environment emulating a physical computer.
A. virtual machine
B. virtual server
C. terminal machine
D terminal server
Answer: B

4. The Windows Server 2008 paging file is __________ times the amount of memory installed in the computer by default.
A. 1.5
B. 2
C. 2.5

5. Used with the Use parameter, what command-line utility can be used to map drive letters to folders in logon scripts?
A. Net.exe
B. Cmd.exe
C. Ipconfig.exe
D Cscript.exe
Answer: A
Another way to automate the drive-mapping process is to create batch files and use them as logon scripts for your users. You can use the Net.exe command-line utility with the Use parameter to map drive letters to folders, so your logon scripts need only contain certain commands.
6. What Windows Server 2008 feature enables you to maintain previous versions of files on a server?
A. Backup Tape
B. Shadow Copies
C. Shadow Files
D Offline Files
Answer: B
Shadow Copies is a Windows Server 2008 mechanism that automatically retains copies of files on a server volume in multiple versions from specific points in time. When users accidentally overwrite or delete files, they can access the shadow copies to restore earlier versions. This feature is designed to prevent administrators from having to load backup media to restore individual files for users.
7. What feature of DFS distributes access requests, thus preventing any one server from shouldering the entire traffic load?
A. data distribution
B. data collection
C. server clustering
D load balancing
Answer: D
A DFS Namespace by itself can simplify the process by which users locate the files they need. However, if people all over the network need access to the same file, the requests are still directed to the same file server, which can cause a performance bottleneck in the computer itself or on the subnet where the file server is located. By replicating shared folders to multiple servers, DFS can distribute the access requests, thus preventing any one server from shouldering the entire traffic load. This is called load balancing.
