A.
New-StorageSubsytemVirtualDisk

B.
Share and Storage Management

C.
Computer Management

D.
File Server Resource Manager (FSRM)

Explanation:
With Share and Storage Management, you can provision storage on disks that are available on your server, or
on storage subsystems that support Virtual Disk Service (VDS). The Provision Storage Wizard guides you
through the process of creating a volume on an existing disk, or on a storage subsystem attached to your
server. If the volume is going to be created on a storage subsystem, the wizard will also guide you through the
process of creating a logical unit number (LUN) to host that volume. You also have the option of only creating
the LUN, and using Disk Management to create the volume later.
Incorrect:
Not D: File Server Resource Manager is a suite of tools for Windows Server that allows administrators to
understand, control, and manage the quantity and type of data that is stored on their servers. By using File
Server Resource Manager, administrators can place quotas on folders and volumes, actively screen files, and
generate comprehensive storage reports. This set ofadvanced instruments not only helps the administrator
efficiently
monitor existing storage resources, but it also aids in the planning and implementation of future policy changes.

You can either create a virtual hard disk by using Computer Management.

I have seen this question incorrectly answered all over the web. Very confusing.

And the Answer is…

Correct: Diskpart — Local Server
Incorrect: New-VirtualDisk — Storage Pools

When DiskPart is not in the answers?

Use the Computer Management Answer.

Open Computer Management –> Storage –> Right Click Disk Management –> Create VHD

Taken from another site…

For other questions to create a VHD (file) you can use computer management.

– Share and storage management (2008 only)
– New-storagesubsystemVirtualDisk (this is a virtual disk, NOT a virtual hard disk)
– Server Manager (you would use this to create virtual disks, not virtual hard disks)
