Question 6

Once deployed, ____ has a hierarchical namespace structure that allows users to locate information using a UNC path location.

Accepted Answer

The hierarchical namespace structure is a feature of Distributed File System (DFS) which allows users to locate information using a UNC path location. Net share is a command used to create, delete, and manage shared resources on a computer. SID (Security Identifier) is a unique ID number assigned to each user, group, and computer on a Windows network. ACL (Access Control List) is a list of permissions attached to an object (e.g. a file, folder, or registry key) that determines who has access to it and what level of access they have. None of these options include a hierarchical namespace structure.

Question 12

Using a multimaster replication engine (such as AD), ____ allows servers connected across WAN or limited bandwidth network connections to stay current.

Accepted Answer

DFS replication uses a multimaster replication engine, allowing servers connected across WAN or limited bandwidth network connections to stay current with changes made to the shared data. DFS namespaces are used for providing a unified view of shared folders from multiple servers, while administrative share and net share are specific types of shares used for administrative purposes and file sharing, respectively.

Question 13

____ can be defined by using built-in templates or custom-created templates or by specific file type.

Accepted Answer

Filters can be defined using built-in templates or custom-created templates or by specific file type. ACLs are access control lists, SIDs are security identifiers, and domains are groups of computers and users that share a common security boundary. These terms do not relate to defining templates or file types.

Question 14

____ use actual file size instead of the logical file size.

Accepted Answer

FSRM (File Server Resource Manager) quotas use the actual file size rather than the logical file size. This means they account for the actual amount of disk space a file occupies, including any file system overhead, rather than just the size of the data contained in the file.

Question 17

____ allows administrators to block specific types of files from being stored in Windows Server 2008 file directories.

Accepted Answer

Filter screening, also known as File Screening, allows administrators to restrict certain file types from being stored in specific directories on a Windows Server 2008 file system. This helps to ensure that sensitive or unwanted files are not stored on the system. DFS replication, public folder sharing, and private folder sharing are all features of Windows Server 2008, but they are not directly related to file screening.
