Your network consists of one Active Directory domain. The domain contains servers that run
Windows Server 2008. The relevant servers are configured as shown in the following table. (Click the
Exhibit)
All client computers run Windows Vista. You plan to deploy two Java-based applications on all client
computers. The two applications each require a different version of the Java Runtime Environment
(JRE). After testing, you notice that the two JREs prevent the applications from running on the same
computer. You need to recommend a solution that enables the two Java-based applications to run
on all client computers. What should you recommend?
A.
Create two Windows Installer (MSI) packages that each contains one version of the JRE and one
compatible application. On Server2, advertise both packages to all client computers.
B.
Create two Windows Installer (MSI) packages that each contains one version of the JRE and one
compatible application. On Server1, create a Group Policy object (GPO) that assigns both packages
to all client computers.
C.
Use the SoftGrid Sequencer to create two application packages that each contains one version of
JRE and one compatible application. On Server3, stream both application packages to all client
computers.
D.
Install the two JRE versions and the two Java-based applications on Server4. Configure all client
computers to connect to the Java-based applications by using Terminal Services RemoteApp (TS
RemoteApp).
Explanation:
To run two Java-based applications that require different versions of Java Runtime Environment
(JRE) on all the client computers of the department you need to create two application packages
using the SoftGrid Sequencer. Each package should contain one version of JRE and its compatible
application. SoftGrid packages and virtualizes Windows applications for delivery as network services.
SoftGrid basically insulates an application from other applications such that they don’t conflict with
one another. In this scenario, where different versions of the Java Runtime are required to run two
applications you can use SoftGrid to”sequence” the required version of the JRE with the application.
When the application is executed it sees only the JRE that it needs and not the other JRE that is
“sequenced” with the other application. You need to stream both application packages to all client
computers on the Server3 because you need the execution of the application to happen on the
Terminal Server so that applications can run on all client computers through Terminal Server.
SoftGrid can be used on and Terminal Servers.
