70-741 Sample Questions

  1. Question 1

    You are employed at a company that has two offices linked via a WAN connection. Every server in the company’s environment has Windows Server 2016 installed.
    The headquarters, located in Liverpool, hosts a Distributed File System (DFS) server named DFS- L. The other office, located in San Francisco, hosts a Distributed File System (DFS) server named DFS-SF.
    You have previously configured a folder located on DFS-L to replicate to DFS-SF. As a result of users constantly adding files to the replicated folder, replication via the WAN connection has become too much during the course of the work day.
    You are required to make sure that the bandwidth, used for replication during office hours, are minimized.
    Solution: You change the properties of DFS-L.
    Has the requirement been satisfied?

    Answer and explanation

    Correct answer: B

    No, this requirement has not been satisfied. Having a single DFS server in the Liverpool headquarters without proper replication configuration does not provide optimal file availability for users in remote offices connected via WAN. For effective DFS implementation, you should configure DFS Replication between the headquarters and remote office locations, establish multiple DFS targets for redundancy, configure DFS namespace for centralized file access, and implement proper site topology to ensure users access the closest available file server replica.

  2. Question 2

    You are employed at a company that has two offices linked via a WAN connection. Every server in the company’s environment has Windows Server 2016 installed.
    The headquarters, located in Liverpool, hosts a Distributed File System (DFS) server named DFS- L. The other office, located in San Francisco, hosts a Distributed File System (DFS) server named DFS-SF.
    You have previously configured a folder located on DFS-L to replicate to DFS-SF. As a result of users constantly adding files to the replicated folder, replication via the WAN connection has become too much during the course of the workday.
    You are required to make sure that the bandwidth, used for replication during office hours, is minimized.
    Solution: You change the properties of DFS-SF.
    Has the requirement been satisfied?

    Answer and explanation

    Correct answer: B

    No, this requirement has not been satisfied. A standalone DFS server at headquarters without branch office integration fails to provide efficient file access for remote users. The solution requires implementing DFS Namespaces to create a unified folder structure, configuring DFS Replication to synchronize files between headquarters and remote offices, establishing site-aware DFS targets, and optimizing replication topology to reduce WAN bandwidth usage while ensuring data consistency across all locations.

  3. Question 3

    You are employed at a company that has two offices linked via a WAN connection. Every server in the company’s environment has Windows Server 2016 installed.
    The headquarters, located in Liverpool, hosts a Distributed File System (DFS) server named DFS- L. The other office, located in San Francisco, hosts a Distributed File System (DFS) server named DFS-SF.
    You have previously configured a folder located on DFS-L to replicate to DFS-SF. As a result of users constantly adding files to the replicated folder, replication via the WAN connection has become too much during the course of the workday.
    You are required to make sure that the bandwidth, used for replication during office hours, is minimized.
    Solution: You change the properties of the replication group.
    Has the requirement been satisfied?

    Answer and explanation

    Correct answer: A

    Yes, this requirement can be satisfied. DFS implementation between headquarters and remote offices provides centralized file access and replication capabilities. By configuring DFS Namespaces for unified folder structure and DFS Replication for automated file synchronization across WAN connections, users can access files from local replicas, reducing WAN traffic and improving performance. The Windows Server 2016 DFS infrastructure supports site-aware file access and bandwidth-efficient replication scheduling.

  4. Question 4

    You are employed at a company, whose hosted BranchCache server is missing a Service Connection Point (SCP).
    You required to register the SCP for the BranchCache server.
    Solution: You run ntdsutil.exe.
    Has the requirement been satisfied?

    Answer and explanation

    Correct answer: B

    No, this requirement has not been satisfied. ntdsutil.exe is a directory services utility for managing Active Directory, not BranchCache. To register a Service Connection Point (SCP) for BranchCache, you need to use the Enable-BCHostedServer PowerShell cmdlet with the -RegisterSCP parameter, or netsh branchcache commands. The SCP registration allows BranchCache clients to discover the hosted cache server through Active Directory rather than manual configuration.
