School of Fine Art
Scenario
COMPANY OVERVIEW
School of Fine Art is an educational institution that has a main campus and two satellite
campuses. The main campus is located in New York. The satellite campuses are located in
Los Angeles and Chicago. The main campus has approximately 4,000 users made up of
students, faculty, and employees. Each satellite campus has approximately 1,000 users made
up of students, faculty, and employees.
EXISTING ENVIRONMENT
The network contains a single Active Directory domain named fineartschool.net. All servers
run Windows Server 2008 R2. All client computers run either Windows XP or Windows 7.
The network contains Microsoft Application Virtualization (App-V) and Microsoft Enterprise
Desktop Virtualization (MED-V).
Existing Network Infrastructure
The main campus has the following servers:
• A file server that contains confidential files
• A print server that has several printers installed
• A server that has the Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) server role installed
All client computers are updated by using the WSUS server. The main campus has a
computer lab. The lab has 50 client computers that run Windows 7 Enterprise. The computer
accounts for the lab computers are located in an organizational unit (OU) named LabOU. The
user accounts and computer accounts for all of the students are located in an OU named
StudentsOU. Both OUs are child objects in the fineartschool.net domain. The relevant Group
Policy objects (GPOs) are configured as shown in the following table.

REQUIREMENTS
Technical Requirements
The computer lab must meet the following requirements:
• Ensure that the user settings in all domain-level GPOs are App1ied to each student.
• Prevent the settings in all domain-level GPOs from being App1ied to the client computers
in the computer lab.
The update management infrastructure must meet the following requirements:
• Each campus must control the updates for its respective campus.

• Update status reports must be sent weekly to the Enterprise Administrator on the main
campus.
Application Requirements
All client computers will be upgraded to Windows 7 Enterprise. An Application named App1
runs on every client computer. App1 is only compatible with Windows XP. App1 must
remain available after all of the operating system upgrades are complete.
App1 must meet the following requirements:
• App1 must be available from the Start menu.
• The management of App1 must be centralized.
• Each user must have a unique instance of App1.
Security Requirements
Security for the file server on the main campus must meet the following requirements:
• Unauthorized users must be prevented from printing sensitive files stored on the server.
• The contents of the server* s hard disks must remain secure if the physical security of the
server is compromised.
Problem Statements
Users report that they receive a different desktop environment every time they log on to a
client computer in the computer lab. The print server on the main campus has reliability
issues. A malfunction on a single printer often causes other printers to malfunction.

Explanation:

MED-V Usage Scenarios
The key usage scenario for MED-V is resolving application-to-operating system Incompatibility to
accelerate the upgrade path to a new operating system. Businesses that need to continue to run

legacy line-of business applications on users’ desktop computers can do so by using Virtual PC.
Incompatibility between legacy applications and newer versions of Microsoft Windows can often be
a primary blocking issue preventing an enterprise from upgrading to the latest version of Windows,
such as Windows Vista, to take advantage of the many new features and enhancements offered by
this version. By delivering those applications in a Virtual PC that runs a previous version of the
operating system (for example, Windows XP or Windows 2000), MED-V allows administrators to
break the tight dependency between a computer’s underlying hardware and the operating system,
and it can help remove such blocking issues so that your users can benefit from having the latest
version of Windows deployed on their desktop computers. From the user’s perspective, with MED-V,
these applications are accessible from the Start menu and appear side by side with regular
applications—so there is minimal change to the user experience.

Microsoft Enterprise Desktop Virtualization (MED-V), a core component of the Microsoft Desktop
Optimization Pack (MDOP) for Microsoft Software Assurance, is the most robust and scalable
solution for virtualizing Internet Explorer 7 and Internet Explorer 6. It provides a centrally managed
solution that is intended for enterprise customers. If you use MED-V for virtualization, you can run
Windows® 7 and still run older applications seamlessly, directly from a Windows 7 desktop. Users
continue to work as they always have and as they launch their browser, MED-V determines whether
to leave the URL in Internet Explorer 8 or whether it should redirect and display it in Internet
Explorer 6 or Internet Explorer 7 on the MED-V workspace. The MEDV policy that is created and
managed by the administrator determines the who, what, and how of applications from the MED-V
workspace. By using MED-V, you retain the productivity benefits of the newest operating system, yet
you can use older applications that might be best suited for your work.
