You are the systems administrator for your company. The company’s network consists of a single Active Directory domain. The company’s network contains a Windows Small Business Server (SBS) 2003. You are migrating from Windows SBS 2003 to Windows Essential Business Server (EBS) 2008. You plan to install Windows EBS 2008 on the network. You want to ensure that when you install Windows EBS 2008, replication is automatically started.
What should you do during the installation of Windows EBS?
A.
Join the Database Server to the existing domain.
B.
Join the Messaging Server to the existing domain.
C.
Join the Management Server to the existing domain.
D.
Join the Security Server to the existing domain.
Explanation:
You should join the Management Server to the existing domain. Windows EBS promotes the Management Server and the Messaging Server to domain controllers for the domain when you install Windows EBS. During the installation of the Management Server, when you choose to join an existing domain, replication between the Management Server and existing domain controllers automatically starts. When you migrate from Windows SBS 2003 to Windows EBS 2008, you can use the Ntdsutil.exe and Repadmin.exe utilities to ensure that existing domain controllers replicate successfully.You should not join the Database Server, Messaging Server, or Security Server to the existing domain because this will not start the replication automatically when you install Windows WBS 2008.
