1. You are the administrator of a Windows Server 2003 computer named Server1. Server1 has a single disk. The
disk is configured so that it has four primary partitions, which are formatted as FAT32. The disk also has unallocated space available.
You need to use the unallocated disk space to store user data. What should you do?
A. Convert all existing partitions to NTFS.
B. Using Diskpart.exe, run the create command.
C. Convert the disk to a dynamic disk, and create a new volume. D. Using Diskpart.exe, run the extend command.
Answer: C
2. You are a network administrator for your company. A Windows Server 2003 computer named Server1 functions
as a file server.
Server1 has two data volumes: volume E and volume F. Volume E contains user data. The E:\UserData folder is shared as Users. The Volume Shadow Copy service is scheduled to create a shadow copy backup twice a day on volume E, using the default storage area.
Users report that only the most recent file versions are available in the Previous Versions property of the Users share. You discover that volume E does not have enough space and is discarding old shadow copies too soon. You decide to move the shadow copy storage area to volume F. However, when you open the settings for the volume E shadow copy, you cannot change the storage area location.
You need to move the shadow copy storage area to volume F so that there is enough space for additional copies. What should you do?
A. Add a shadow copy to volume F by using the VSSAdmin command Create Shadow. Then remove the old shadow copy storage association by using the VSSAdmin command Delete Shadows.
B. Change the folder properties on volume E so that you can view protected operating system files. Copy the System Volume Information folder to volume F. Then change the shadow copy storage area of volume E to volume F.
C. Add a shadow copy storage association to volume F by using the VSSAdmin command Add ShadowStorage. Then remove the old shadow copy storage association by using the VSSAdmin command Delete ShadowStorage.
D. Back up and delete all current shadow copies for volume E. Move the shadow copy storage area of volume E
to volume F. Then restore the backup copy to the new location.
Answer: D
3. You are the administrator of a Windows Server 2003 computer named Server1. The hardware vendor for Server1 notifies you that a critical hotfix is available. This hotfix is required for all models of this computer that have a certain network interface card.
You need to find out if the network interface card that requires the hotfix is installed in Server1.

4. You are the administrator of a Windows Server 2003 computer named Server1.
Newly hired employees recently started storing files on Server1. Now users report that Server1 is responding much slower than it did before the additional users were added. You suspect the disk subsystem needs to be upgraded to accommodate the additional user load.
You need to confirm whether the disk subsystem on Server1 needs to be upgraded. What should you do?
A. Configure a Performance Logs and Alerts alert on the %Free Space counter.
B. Use Device Manager to populate volume settings and examine the properties of the disk drives on Server1
C. Use Event Viewer to examine the system logs and search the system logs for events generated by the disk event source.

0×00000000, 0xf27b4e8e) IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL.”
You suspect that a hardware component is causing the problem, and you contact the vendor. The vendor requires debugging information.

A complete backup, including the System State data, was performed before the service pack and
the driver were installed.
You need to restore network communications. What should you do first?
