You have a server named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2012.
A network technician installs a new disk on Server1and creates a new volume. The properties of the new
volume are shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibitbutton.)
You need to ensure that you can enable NTFS disk quotas for volume D.
What should you do first?
A.
Install the File Server Resource Manager role service.
B.
Format volume D.
C.
Run the convert.exe command.
D.
Convert the disk to a dynamic disk.
Explanation:
Topic 4, Volume D
Answer:B
Explanation:
The following conditions apply when you use disk quotas:
•Disk quotas set on a volume apply only to that volume.
•Disk quotas cannot be set on individual files or folders.
•Disk quotas are based on uncompressed file sizes. You cannot increase the amount of free space by compressing the data.
•If the computer that hosts the volume with a quota is configured as a multiple-boot system with Windows 2000 and Windows NT 4.0, the quota is not enforced and can be exceeded when it is running Windows NT 4.0. However, when that computer resumes running Windows 2000, users who exceeded their quotas must delete or move files to a different volume that is, until they are under their limit before they can store new files to the quota volume.
•To support disk quotas, a disk volume must be formatted with NTFS. Volumes formatted with previous versions of NTFS are upgraded automatically by Windows 2000 Setup.
•To administer quotas on a volume, you must be a member of the Administrators group on the computer where the volume resides.
•If the volume is not formatted with NTFS, or if you are not a member of the Administrators group on the local computer, the Quota tab is not displayed on the volume’s Properties page.

The link you posted applies to W2000.
In W2012 R2 Disk Quotas can be set by Folder.
I agree with the answer as B. Format Volume D
Reason the properties od D volume show it is formatted as ReFS, this has to be formatted as NTFS to apply disk quotas on D.
Answer is B.
Because the exhibit shows permissions feature, then the volume is formate into REFS file system. And REFS to NTFS requires format not convert.exe

The Exhibit
http://certificator.it/uploads/uploads/exam/241/question/8eb7b777-e2d4-4521-a916-751226cf0555.jpg
It seems clear to me that the answer is option A.

” Quota management Quotas allow you to limit the space that is allowed for a volume or folder, and they can be automatically applied to new folders that are created on a volume. You can also define quota templates that can be applied to new volumes or folders.”
File Server Resource Manager supports volumes formatted with the NTFS file system only. The Resilient File System is not supported.
Correct answer is B
After posting my initial answer (“A”), I went to the lab and tried the different combinations of : dynamic/basic disk,NTFS/Refs/FAT32.
The only case where you have the “Quota” tab is when you format the volume as NTFS.
Disk may be dynamic, or basic, if the format is NTFS, in both will appear the QUOTA tab.
This was tested on Windows server 2012 and 2012 R2.
Where is on exhibit you can see that it’s ReFS?
Just tested this on the Server 2012 R2. The correct answer is to format volume D because the volume was created as ReFS. You can confirm the format type by looking at file system under the properties of the volume. NTFS format provides more tabs than ReFS like Quota, Classification etc.
