2. Specify the correct order of steps necessary to creating and mounting a VHD. ____ Log on with administrative privileges and open Server Manager. ____ Click Tools > Computer Management. ____ Click Disk Management and then click Create VHD from the Action menu. ____ Specify the Location path and name for the new VHD file and then specify the maximum size of the disk. ____ Select the virtual hard disk format option (VHD or VHDX). ____ Select one of the following VHD types (Fixed size or Dynamically expanding). ____ Click OK for the system to create and attach the VHD file. The VHD appears as a disk in the Disk Management snap-in.

You create a new storage pool for the following disks on your Windows 10 computer: • Serial ATA (SATA): 1 TB • Serial Attached SCSI (SAS): 1 TB SATA and SAS are two different types of drives with different connectors/interfaces. What is the maximum size you can allocate for your new storage space?

Unlimited. By using thin provisioning, you can create a storage space that is larger than the available capacity of the storage pool. For example, you can set it to 4 TB; when the storage pool approaches capacity, you will receive a warning and you will need to add more disks to your pool.

You have a new desktop running Windows 10. However, you try to copy your file repository and find out that you do not have enough disk space. You have 400 GB of free disk space on your C drive and you have 3 smaller 500 GB drives. What can you do?

You can use the small drives and create a storage space and storage pool. Storage Spaces is a feature in Windows 10/Windows Server 2016 that allows you to combine multiple disks into a single logical volume that can be mirrored to protect against one or more drive failures. When the drives are combined, Windows places them into a storage pool. These storage pools can then be segmented into multiple storage spaces, which are then formatted with a file system and can be used just like any other regular disk on your computer.

8. Which of the following volume types supported by Windows 10 does not provide fault tolerance? (Choose all that apply) a. Striped b. Spanned c. Mirrored d. None of the above

a

6. Which of the following statements are true of striped volumes? (Choose all that apply.) a. Striped volumes provide enhanced performance over simple volumes. b. Striped volumes provide greater fault tolerance than simple volumes. c. You can extend striped volumes after creation. d. If a single physical disk in the striped volume fails, all of the data in the entire volume is lost.

7. Which of the following are requirements for extending a volume on a dynamic disk? (Choose all that apply.) a. If you want to extend a simple volume, you can use only the available space on the same disk, if the volume is to remain simple. b. The volume must have a file system before you can extend a simple or spanned volume. c. You can extend a simple or spanned volume if you formatted it using the FAT or FAT32 file systems. d. You can extend a simple volume across additional disks if it is not a system volume or a boot volume.

2. When creating a storage space, which of the following resiliency settings requires at least five drives? a. Parity b. Three-way mirror c. Two-way mirror d. Simple

b

3. Which of the following processes reserves space for future use when working with storage spaces/storage pools? a. Partitions b. Thin provisioning c. SMB blocks d. Provisioned storage blocks

b

4. When creating a storage space, how many disks are needed when setting up parity for resiliency settings in a storage pool? a. 2 b. 3 c. 5 d. 4

b

9. Which of the following is the next step after creating a virtual hard disk (VHD)? a. Mounting it either through Server Manager or the Disk Management snap-in b. Initializing the disk and creating volumes on it, just as you would a physical disk c. Using the VHD (creation of the VHD file readies the disk for storage) d. Mounting the VHD file to a Hyper-V virtual machine

b

2. Which of the following approaches is best to reserve at least 500 GB of space for a new storage space when there is only 100 GB of actual physical disk space? a. Wait until there is enough physical disk capacity to create the 500 GB storage space. b. Purchase new drives before creating the space. c. Use thin provisioning and create the larger space. Drives can be purchased later when needed. d. Configure one pool now and another when the drives are available.
