Recertification for MCSE: SharePoint v6.0

Answer : A,D

Explanation: A:
* Will the maximum file size limit change in SharePoint Server 2013?
No, the maximum file size that can be uploaded to SharePoint will remain at 2GB. of whether or not you are using RBS.
D: In SharePoint 2013, a binary large object (BLOB) is a file, such as a Office 2013 document or a video file. By default, these BLOBs, also named unstructured data, are stored online in the SharePoint content database together with the metadata, or structured data. Because BLOBs can be very large, it can be helpful to move BLOB data out of the
SQL Server database, and onto commodity or content addressable storage. To do this, you can use RBS (Remote BLOB Storage).
Note:
* From Scenario (not C): Individual training videos must be in single files
* RBS stands for Remote Blob Storage. The premise of RBS is that it is much faster to render large BLOBs( Binary Large Objects) from a file system rather than from a database
(such as the SharePoint Content Database). Therefore, by moving this content out of the
SharePoint Content Database, you not only shrink the overall size of your content database, you are able to also move that content on external file stores such as SAN, NAS or DAS.

* How to create and configure a SharePoint Search service application
When you deploy and configure a Search service application, you perform the following main tasks:
-> Create accounts — Certain domain user accounts are required specifically for a
Search service application.
-> Create a Search service application — A Search service application provides enterprise search features and functionality.
-> Configure the Search service application — Basic configuration of a Search service application includes configuring a default content access account, an email contact, and content sources.
-> You configure a Search service application on the Search Administration page for that service application.
-> Configure the Search service application topology — You can deploy search components on different servers in the farm. You can also specify which instance of SQL Server is used to host the search-related databases.
* Enabling continuous crawl has the following advantages:
The search results are very fresh, because the SharePoint content is crawled frequently to keep the search index up to date.
The search administrator does not have to monitor changing or seasonal demands for content freshness. Continuous crawls automatically adapt as necessary to the change rate of the SharePoint content.

The domain contains an Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS) server.
The A. Datum SharePoint environment includes the sites described in the following table.

The A. Datum SharePoint environment contains two servers that run all SharePoint services. The servers run Windows Server 2012 and are members of the domain. A third- party file-level antivirus application runs on all servers in the domain. The adatum.com farm uses Microsoft SQL Server 2012 for the SharePoint databases.
A. Datum is planning a three-tier SharePoint farm to replace the existing farm. A firewall will be placed between each tier. All servers must be virtualized unless otherwise specified.
The following servers are available for the new SharePoint environment:

All user accounts are stored in and maintained by using Active Directory. The My Site portal and document portal SharePoint sites receive user and group membership information by using Active Directory synchronization. New users often have to wait more than 24 hours before they can view their user profile information.
Fabrikam has an AD DS domain named fabrikam.com and a single-server SharePoint environment.

Web Applications -
A new remote web application named App1 will be hosted in the adatum.com domain.
App1 will require access to SharePoint resources in the fabrikam.com domain. SharePoint administrators in the fabrikam.com domain must be able to administer App1 by using
Windows PowerShell.

Answer :

Explanation:
Box 1: Install Windows Server 2012 and SQL Server 2012 on physical machines.
Box 2: Configure Server01 as a principal server and Server02 as a mirror server.
Box 3: Configure Server03 as a log shipping destination.
Note:
* From scenario:
/ All servers must be virtualized unless otherwise specified.
/ The database servers must be physical machines running Windows Server 2012 with direct access to storage.
/ All database transaction logs must be sent off-site.
(so we configure log shipping destination on Server3 which is located in New York while server1 and server2 are both in Chicago).
/ The database servers must be configured for redundancy.
* SQL Server Log shipping allows you to automatically send transaction log backups from a primary database on a primary server instance to one or more secondary databases on separate secondary server instances.

Answer :

Explanation:

Note:
* From scenario:
/ Fabrikam has an AD DS domain named fabrikam.com
/ Fabrikam users must be able to directly access internal SharePoint resources in the adatum.com domain.
/ Datum users must not be able to access resources in the fabrikam.com domain.
* A.Datum need to Trust Fabrikam (as Fabrikam need to access resources in A.Datum) so
A.Datum is the source and Fabrikam the destination.
* A one-way, outgoing, forest trust allows resources in your Windows Server 2008 forest or
Windows Server 2003 forest (the forest that you are logged on to at the time that you run the New Trust Wizard) to be accessed by users in another Windows Server 2008 forest or
Windows Server 2003 forest. For example, if you are the administrator of the wingtiptoys.com forest and resources in that forest need to be accessed by users in the tailspintoys.com forest, you can use this procedure to establish one side of the relationship so that users in the tailspintoys.com forest can access resources in any of the domains that make up the wingtiptoys.com forest.
