Your company plans to deploy eight file servers that run Windows Server 2008 R2. All file servers willconnect
to Ethernet switches.
You need to plan a data storage solution that meetsthe following requirements:
Allocates storage to the servers as needed.
Utilizes the existing network infrastructure.
Maximizes performance.
Maximizes fault tolerance.
Which actions should you include in your plan?
A.
Install Windows Server 2008 R2 Datacenter on eachserver. Deploy the servers in a failover cluster. Deploy
an iSCSI storage area network (SAN).
B.
Install Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard on each server. Deploy the servers in a Network Load Balancing
(NLB) cluster. Implement RAID5 on each server.
C.
Install Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise on eachserver. Deploy the servers in a failover cluster. Deploy
a Fibre Channel (FC) storage area network (SAN).
D.
Install Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise on eachserver. Deploy the servers in a Network Load
Balancing (NLB) cluster. Map a network drive on each server to an external storage array.
Explanation:
iSCSI can be used without addition of hardware (in contrast to FC) in the existing network infrastructure.
Failover clustering is required for fault tolerance, and is available in Enterprise and Datacenter editions only.
