Your company has a production network and a test network.
Both networks have System Center 2012 Configuration Manager deployed.
You create the following objects on the test network:
A configuration item named SQLServerCI
A configuration baseline named SQLServerBaseline that contains the configuration item
A collection named SQLServers that contains all of the servers on the test network that run
Microsoft SQL Server.
You export the configuration baseline to SQLServerBaseline.cab.
You open the Configuration Manager console, you click Assets and Compliance, and then you
expand Compliance Settings.
You need to apply the configuration baseline to the servers on the production network that run SQL
Server.
You create a collection named SQLServers that contains all SQL Servers from the production
network.
What should you do next? (Choose all that apply.)
A.
Right-click SQLServersBaseline, select Categorize, and then select Server.
B.
Right-click SQLServerCI, select Export, and then specify SQLServer Baseline.cab as the export file.
C.
Right-click SQLServersBaseline, select Deploy, and then select the SQLServers collection.
D.
Right-click Configuration Baselines, and then select Import Configuration Data
E.
Right-click SQLServersBaseline, and then select Properties. In the Deployments tab, type
SQLServers in the Filter… box.

How to Import Configuration Data in Configuration Manager
In addition to creating configuration baselines and configuration items in the System Center 2012
Configuration Manager console, you can import configuration data if it is contained in a cabinet
(.cab) file format and adheres to the supported SML schema. You can import configuration data
from the following sources:
Best practice configuration data (Configuration Packs) that has been downloaded from Microsoft or
from other software vendor sites.
Configuration data that has been exported from System Center 2012 Configuration Manager.
Configuration data that was externally authored and that conforms to the Service Modeling
Language (SML) schema.
How to Import Configuration Data
When you import a configuration baseline, some or all of the configuration items that are
referenced in the configuration baseline might also be included in the cabinet file. During the import
process, Configuration Manager verifies that all of the configuration items that are referenced in the
configuration baseline are either also included in the cabinet file or already exist in the Configuration
Manager site. The import process fails if you attempt to import a configuration baseline that
references configuration data that Configuration Manager cannot locate.
..
To import configuration data
1. In the Configuration Manager console, click Assets and Compliance.
2. In the Assets and Compliance workspace, expand Configuration Items or Configuration Baselines,
and then in the Home tab, in the Create group, click Import Configuration Data.3. On the Select Files page of the Import Configuration Data Wizard, click Add, and then in the Open
dialog box, select the .cab files you want to import.
4. Select the Create a new copy of the imported configuration baselines and configuration items
check box if you want the imported configuration data to be editable in the Configuration Manager
console.
5. On the Summary page of the wizard, review the actions that will be taken, and then complete the
wizard. The imported configuration data displays in the Compliance Settings node in the Assets and
Compliance workspace.

How to Deploy Configuration Baselines in Configuration Manager
Configuration baselines in System Center 2012 Configuration Manager must be deployed to one or
more collections of users or devices before client devices in those collections can assess their
compliance with the configuration baseline.
Use the Deploy Configuration Baselines dialog box to define configuration baseline deployments,
which includes adding or removing configuration baselines from deployments in addition to
specifying the evaluation schedule.
To deploy a configuration baseline
1. In the Configuration Manager console, click Assets and Compliance.
2. In the Assets and Compliance workspace, expand Compliance Settings, and then click
Configuration Baselines.
3. In the Configuration Baselines list, select the configuration baseline that you want to deploy, and
then in the
Home tab, in the Deployment group, click Deploy.
4. In the Deploy Configuration Baselines dialog box, select the configuration baselines that you want
to deploy in the Available configuration baselines list. Click Add to add these to the selected
configuration baselines list.
5. Specify the following additional information:
* Remediate noncompliant rules when supported – Enable this option to automatically remediate
any rules that are noncompliant for Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI), the registry,
scripts, and all settings for mobile devices that are enrolled by Configuration Manager.
* Allow remediation outside the maintenance window – If a maintenance window has been
configured for the collection to which you are deploying the configuration baseline, enable this
option to let compliance settings remediate the value outside of the maintenance window.
6. Generate an alert – Enable this option to configure an alert that is generated if the configuration
baseline compliance is less than a specified percentage by a specified date and time. You can also
specify whether you want an alert to be sent to System Center Operations Manager.
7. Collection: Click Browse to select the collection where you want to deploy the configuration
baseline.
8. Specify the compliance evaluation schedule for this configuration baseline: Specifies the schedule
by which the deployed configuration baseline is evaluated on client computers. This can be either a
simple or a custom schedule.
9. Click OK to close the Deploy Configuration Baselines dialog box and to create the deployment.
