- Question 1
You are employed at a company that has two offices linked via a WAN connection. Every server in the company’s environment has Windows Server 2016 installed.
The headquarters, located in Liverpool, hosts a Distributed File System (DFS) server named DFS- L. The other office, located in San Francisco, hosts a Distributed File System (DFS) server named DFS-SF.
You have previously configured a folder located on DFS-L to replicate to DFS-SF. As a result of users constantly adding files to the replicated folder, replication via the WAN connection has become too much during the course of the workday.
You are required to make sure that the bandwidth, used for replication during office hours, is minimized.
Solution: You change the properties of the replication group.
Has the requirement been satisfied?Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Yes, this requirement can be satisfied. DFS implementation between headquarters and remote offices provides centralized file access and replication capabilities. By configuring DFS Namespaces for unified folder structure and DFS Replication for automated file synchronization across WAN connections, users can access files from local replicas, reducing WAN traffic and improving performance. The Windows Server 2016 DFS infrastructure supports site-aware file access and bandwidth-efficient replication scheduling.
- Question 2
You are employed at a company, whose hosted BranchCache server is missing a Service Connection Point (SCP).
You required to register the SCP for the BranchCache server.
Solution: You run ntdsutil.exe.
Has the requirement been satisfied?Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
No, this requirement has not been satisfied. ntdsutil.exe is a directory services utility for managing Active Directory, not BranchCache. To register a Service Connection Point (SCP) for BranchCache, you need to use the Enable-BCHostedServer PowerShell cmdlet with the -RegisterSCP parameter, or netsh branchcache commands. The SCP registration allows BranchCache clients to discover the hosted cache server through Active Directory rather than manual configuration.
- Question 3
You are employed at a company, whose hosted BranchCache server is missing a Service Connection Point (SCP).
You required to register the SCP for the BranchCache server.
Solution: You run Fsutil.exe.
Has the requirement been satisfied?Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
No, this requirement has not been satisfied. Fsutil.exe is a file system utility used for managing NTFS file system features like quotas, sparse files, and USNs, but it cannot register Service Connection Points (SCPs) for BranchCache. To register an SCP for a BranchCache hosted cache server, you must use the Enable-BCHostedServer PowerShell cmdlet with the -RegisterSCP parameter, or use netsh branchcache set service mode=hostedserver commandregisterscp=true to register the SCP in Active Directory.
- Question 4
You are employed at a company, whose hosted BranchCache server is missing a Service Connection Point (SCP).
You required to register the SCP for the BranchCache server.
Solution: You run the Enable-BCHostedServer cmdlet.
Has the requirement been satisfied?Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Yes, this requirement has been satisfied. The Enable-BCHostedServer cmdlet is the correct PowerShell command to configure BranchCache in hosted cache server mode. When used with the -RegisterSCP parameter, it registers a Service Connection Point (SCP) in Active Directory, allowing BranchCache clients to automatically discover the hosted cache server without manual configuration. This is the proper method for registering BranchCache SCPs in a Windows Server 2016 environment. References: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj862376(v=ws.11).aspx
