A Datum
Background
General Background
You are a SharePoint administrator for A. Datum Corporation. A. Datum is a large legal firm with
offices in Chicago, New York, and London. A. Datum is merging with a smaller legal firm named
Fabrikam, Inc.
Technical Background
A Datum has an Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) domain named adatum.com. The domain
contains an Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS) server.
The A. Datum SharePoint environment includes the sites described in the following table.

The A. Datum SharePoint environment contains two servers that run all SharePoint services. The
servers run Windows Server 2012 and are members of the domain. A third-party file-level antivirus
application runs on all servers in the domain. The adatum.com farm uses Microsoft SQL Server 2012
for the SharePoint databases.
A Datum is planning a three-tier SharePoint farm to replace the existing farm. A firewall will be
placed between each tier. All servers must be virtualized unless otherwise specified. The following
servers are available for the new SharePoint environment:

All user accounts are stored in and maintained by using Active Directory. The My Site portal and
document portal SharePoint sites receive user and group membership information by using Active
Directory synchronization. New users often have to wait more than 24 hours before they can view
their user profile information.
Fabrikam has an AD DS domain named fabrikam.com and a single-server SharePoint environment.
Web Applications
A new remote web application named App1 will be hosted in the adatum.com domain. App1 will
require access to SharePoint resources in the fabrikam.com domain. SharePoint administrators in
the fabrikam.com domain must be able to administer App1 by using Windows PowerShell.
Technical Requirements
You must meet the following technical requirements:
• Fabrikam users must be able to directly access internal SharePoint
resources in the adatum.com domain.
• Datum users must not be able to access resources in the
fabrikam.com domain.
• All documents relating to the merger must contain a barcode, and
must be protected from distribution.
• Authenticated users must not be prompted for credentials when
they access App1.
• Users in the adatum.com domain must be able to access all
SharePoint sites the same day they receive their Active Directory account
credentials.
• When a user account is deleted, the user’s personal site collection
must automatically be removed within 12 hours.
• The antivirus application must not scan SharePoint directories.
When migrating the SharePoint environment, you must meet the following requirements:
• The application and database servers must not be accessible from
the Internet.
• The database servers must accept connections only from the
SharePoint servers.
• The database servers must be physical machines running Windows
Server 2012 with direct access to storage.
• The database servers must be configured for redundancy.
• All database transaction logs must be sent off-site.
• All SharePoint installation prerequisites must be installed offline.

On the Service Applications page, which service application should you configure? (To answer, select
the appropriate service application in the answer area.)

Answer:

Explanation:
Note:
The User Profile service application in SharePoint Server 2013 provides a central location where
service administrators configure and administer the following features:
* User profiles – contain detailed information about people in an organization. A user profile
organizes and displays all of the properties related to each user, together with social tags,
documents, and other items related to that user.
* Profile synchronization – provides a reliable way to synchronize groups and user profile
information that is stored in the SharePoint Server 2013 profile database together with information
that is stored in directory services across the enterprise.
* Audiences – enables organizations to target content to users based on their job or task, as defined
by their membership in a SharePoint Server group or distribution list, by the organizational reporting
structure, or by the public properties in their user profiles.
*My Site Host – a dedicated site for hosting My Sites. A My Site Host is needed in order to deploy the
social features of SharePoint Server.
* My Site – a personal site that gives users in your organization a central location to manage and
store documents, links, and information about colleagues.
* Social tags and notes – enables users to add social tags to documents, to other SharePoint Server
items, and to other items, such as external web pages and blog posts. Users can also leave notes on
profile pages of a My Site or any SharePoint Server page. Administrators can delete all tags for
employees when they leave the company or remove a tag they do not want.
