The Certidea.com network consists of a single Active Directory domain named Certidea.com.
All servers on the Certidea.com network run Windows Server 2003 and all client computers run Windows
XP Professional.
The Certidea.com network contains a member server named PAS54SURE-SV8.
You run differential backups of Certidea-SV8 every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday nights.
You also run a normal backup every Friday night.
Prior to installing a new application on Wednesday, you first perform a copy backup of Certidea-SV8.
After restarting Certidea-SV8 you immediately realize that the new application has corrupted files located on
the server, so you uninstall the application.
You now want to restore the corrupted files on Certidea-SV8 to their original state as quickly as possible.
Place the action or actions that you should perform to accomplish this in the correct order by dragging the
appropriate action to its corresponding box.
Correct Answer:
A 'copy' backup is a full backup. It backs up all the files.
The difference between a copy backup and a full backup is that the full backup clears the archive bits.
The Backup utility supports five methods of backing up data on your computer or network.
Copy backup, Daily backup, Differential backup, Incremental backup as well as normal backup.
The Differential backup only backs up files that have their archive bits set (turned on) to indicate that they
have been modified since the last normal or incremental backup.
Each backed-up file's archive bit is not changed; in this way, you can perform other types of backups on
these files at a later time.
In addition, a Normal backup is where all files that are selected for backup are backed up and each backed-
up file's archive bit is cleared.
You have a server that runs Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2).
The server has one hard disk that contains one volume.
You need to receive a notification when the volume has less than 15 percent free disk space.
What should you do?
- A. Configure a Trace Log by using the File details system provider.
- B. Configure an Alert by using a counter from the Logical Disk performance object.
- C. Configure an Alert by using a counter from the Physical Disk performance object.
- D. Configure a Trace Log by using the Disk input/output system provider.
