Testlet 1
Overview
A:
Datum Corporation is a consulting company that has two offices. The offices are located in Seattle and Los
Angeles.
Existing Environment
Active directory
The network contains a single-domain Active Directory forest named adatum.com.
All of the users in the research department are members of a group named Research.
Server Infrastructure
Each office has one data center. All of the servers in both of the data centers run Windows Server 2012 R2.
Each office contains a private network and a perimeter network. The private network and the perimeter network
are separated by a firewall.
A:
Datum has a pilot implementation of a private cloud in the Seattle office. The relevant servers in the Seattle
office are configured as shown in the following table.
Server7 is a member of a workgroup. Server7 is located in the perimeter network of the Seattle office.
Key management for VMM uses a local store.
VMM and Operations Manager use Server3 as a database server.
Administrative Configuration
The network has the users described in the following table.
VMM contains two host groups named Seattle and Los Angeles. Server6 is in the Seattle host group. Currently,
Server7 is not managed by VMM. The Los Angeles host group is empty.
Four user roles are created in VMM as described in the following table.
Requirements
Planned Changes
A:
Datum plans to implement the following changes:
Connect the Seattle data center to Microsoft Azure.
Extend the on-premises data center and create a hybrid cloud.
Use Server8 to provide 10 TB of iSCSI storage for storing virtual machines.
Cloud Infrastructure Requirements
A:
Datum identifies the following cloud infrastructure requirements:
Add Server8 to a storage fabric.
Add file shares from Server5 to a storage fabric.
Ensure that all of the private cloud components are highly available.
Ensure that the servers in the perimeter network of the Seattle office can be monitored by using Operations
Manager.
Cloud Manageability Requirements
A:
Datum identifies the following cloud manageability requirements:The principle of least privilege must be used.
The virtual machines in the hybrid cloud must be managed.
User11 must be able to add virtualization hosts to the Seattle host group.
Server7 must be managed by using VMM. VMM must use default ports for connectivity with Server7.
User9 must integrate Server4 into the fabric. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) will not be used with Server4.
The IPAM server must be used to configure and monitor the logical networks and IP address pools created
in VMM.
User10 must be able to create virtual machines in the Seattle office and overrides for monitoring the virtual
machines.
If VMM puts a Hyper-V host into maintenance mode, Operations Manager must put the Hyper-V host into
maintenance mode automatically.
The users in the Research group must be able to create up to only 20 virtual machines on the virtualization
hosts in the Seattle host group.
###EndCaseStudy###
You need to configure Server1 to meet the cloud infrastructure requirements.
What should you do?
A.
Reinstall VMM.
B.
Create a mirrored volume.
C.
Install the Storage Replica feature.
D.
Create a storage space and use the mirror resiliency type.
Explanation:
Storage Replica (SR) is a new feature that enables storage-agnostic, block-level, synchronous replication
between servers for disaster recovery, as well as stretching of a failover cluster for high availability.
Synchronous replication enables mirroring of data in physical sites with crash-consistent volumes ensuring zero
data loss at the file system level. Asynchronous replication allows site extension beyond metropolitan ranges
with the possibility of data loss.
Scenario:
* Server1 is in a private cloud in the Seattle Office
* Infrastructrure requirements include:
Ensure that all of the private cloud components are highly available.
