The ABC.com network consists of a single Active Directory domain named ABC.com. All the
servers on the network run Windows Server 2003 servers and all the client computers run
Windows XP.
The network contains a two node server cluster for file sharing that has been created using two
Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition servers named ABC-SR01 and ABC-SR02. Both servers
contain a single hard disk containing the system volume. Both servers connect to a shared storage
array which hosts the shared folders.
ABC-SR01 is configured as the preferred owner of the file sharing resources. To prepare your
network for any disaster recovery, you decide to take regular backups using the Backup or
Restore Wizard.
A Full backup of the shared folders is taken every night.
A Full backup of ABC-SR01 and ABC-SR02 is taken every Saturday night.
Incremental backups of ABC-SR01 and ABC-SR02 are taken every night. System State Data
backups and Automated System Recovery (ASR) of both servers are taken every night.
During a routine monitoring check on Friday you discover that ABC-SR02 has gone offline.
How can you recover the cluster as soon as possible? Choose all that apply.
A.
Evict ABC-SR02 from the cluster.
B.
Restore the last full backup then restore the last incremental backup.
C.
Restore the last full backup then restore the last incremental backup and the last System State
backup.
D.
Perform an ASR restore on ABC-SR02.
E.
Add ABC-SR02 back into the cluster.
Explanation:
To recover ABC-SR02and restore it to the cluster while ensuring minimum data loss
and recovery time, you need to restore ABC-SR02 by using ASR, and then add ABC-SR02to the
server cluster. This is because ASR is used to restore complete backup including system files,
registry, active directory and all complete application software. The complete backup is required
because cluster is a clone of complete node. To restore the server to the cluster, you can then add
this node to the cluster. This process will save time and data loss.
