Topic 7, Line-of-business applications
Business RequirementsLine-of-business applications
A line-of-business (LOB) application named App1 is deployed on LA-SVR01 and LA-SVR02.
Backups
All company data is temporarily backed up by using snapshots, and then archived to long-term media. When
possible, metadata and non-critical information must be stored by using AD DS.
Monitoring
System Center is used as the primary monitoring tool for server and application performance.
The company also plans to monitor core services, such as DNS, DHCP, and AD DS. Any additional monitoring
capabilities must be performed by using System Center.
Active Directory
The company plans to use Active Directory to store personal information for employees. Users in the branch
offices must not be able to view the confidential data that is stored for other users.
File shares
The NY-SVR05 server acts as the primary file server in the domain. File shares are replicated to LA-SRV03.
Client computers use NY-SRV05 to access file in the file share, BranchCache distributed mode is enabled in
each branch office. Each client computer has a 250-GB hard drive that is used by the Local Cache.
BranchCache must be able to use up to 10% of the 250-GB hard drive for the local cache.
Consolidation
The company plans to consolidate the amount of servers that are in both data centers. Company
management needs to generate a report that describes how consolidation will affect power and cooling costs
in the data center.
Technical Requirements
Server deployments
The existing Microsoft Azure environment does not have the ability to expand automatically. The Azure
environment must support the ability to deploy additional virtual machines (VMs) automatically. The onpremises deployment environments must deploy only to trusted computers. When possible, System Center
must be used to deploy and manage the on-premises and Azure environments. System Center must also be
used to migrate existing virtual machines from VMM to Azure.
Monitoring
The DHCP service must be monitored and reported if the service stops or restarts. Additionally, DHCP scope
and Network Access Protection (NAP) related events must be monitored.
Azure migrationThe company plans to migrate existing services, including System Center management servers, to Azure. To
reduce costs, the migration must use the minimum number of Azure VM instances to migrate the services.
App1
App1 uses a DNS application directory partition on LA-DC01 and NY-DC01. App1 uses IPv6 for network
connectivity and must resolve single-label names for resources in the woodgrovebank.com DNS zone.
GlobalNames zone has been created, but the zone has not been populated with resource records.
Active Directory Domain Services
The company plans to use the Employee-Number user property to store personal identification numbers.
File shares
Each branch office connects to the New York data center to retrieve file shares. BranchCache distributed
mode is enabled in each branch office. The cache on each client computer must be a single file.
Consolidation reports
The company requires a report that describes the impact of consolidation. The report must provide the
following information:
An inventory of the existing physical server environment
Visual charts that show the reduction of physical servers

You have an IP Address Management (IPAM) server that runs Windows Server 2012 SP1. You need to
integrate the IPAM server with System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM).
Solution: You create a dedicated user account named IPAM_svc, and add it to the Local Administrators local
group on the SO/MM server.
Does this meet the goal?
A.
Yes
B.
No
