QUESTION 157
Your company has a private cloud that contains a System Center 2012 R2 infrastructure.
You have a management server named Server1 that has Operations Manager installed.
You have a management server named Server2 that has Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) installed.
You need to monitor network devices by using Operations Manager.
The solution must meet the following requirements:
– Only provide the health status of devices located on physical networks.
– Only include devices that are one hop away from a managed host.
– Only include devices that are part of the private cloud.
What should you use?
A. The Fabric Health Dashboard
B. The Microsoft System Center Advisor (SCA)
C. The Network Vicinity Dashboard
D. The Application Summary Dashboard
Answer: A
Explanation:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn249700.aspx
Excerpt from TechNet:
For each cloud, the Fabric Health Dashboard displays these aspects of the fabric:
Host State: monitors the health state of the hosting groups or the computing aspects of the cloud, such as CPU, memory, disks, and network adapters
Storage Pools State File Share and LUN State: monitors the health state of the storage aspect of fabric for issues, such as disk space capacity and allocation
Network Node State: utilizes network monitoring in Operations Manager and displays the health state of network nodes (devices) that are relevant for the cloud you selected. Only physical network devices within one hop from the hosts are shown. To see the physical network devices, you must enable the Network Monitoring feature of Operations Manager and monitor the physical network devices connected to the hosts. Virtual networks are not shown in the dashboard.

D. From the firewall, allow TCP 51909 from Network1 to Network2.
E. Deploy an SMTP smart host.
F. From the firewall, allow TCP 5723 from Network1 to Network2.
Answer: D
Explanation:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh212740.aspx
Because of the limited communication between an ACS forwarder and an ACS collector you only need to open the inbound TCP port 51909 on a firewall to enable an ACS forwarder, separated from your network by a firewall, to reach the ACS collector.
QUESTION 159
Hotspot Question
Your company has a private cloud that contains a System Center 2012 R2 infrastructure.
You plan to use service level objectives (SLOs) to monitor the network resources.
In the table below, identify which type of SLO should be used to achieve each SLO goal.
Make only one selection in each row.
Answer: 
Explanation:
Monitor-Based Objectives
Monitor-based objectives are used to measure the time in state of a specific objects. When defining a monitor-based SLO, you have the ability to determine which of these states constitutes a breach of the SLO. An overall target is then set for the total time that the monitor must not be in the breach state.
Collection Rule Objectives
With collection rule SLOs, you can choose a performance collection rule and then measure it against a specific target. The measure can be based upon the performance counter’s minimum, maximum, or average value, and the target can be greater than, less than, or equal to it.

QUESTION 164
Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com.
The domain contains a domain controller named DC1 and a member server named Server1.
You have a server named Server2 that is a member of a workgroup.
All servers run Windows Server 2012 R2.
Server1 has System Center 2012 R2 Operations Manager installed.
DC1 is configured as an enterprise certification authority (CA).
Server1 and DC1 are located on the internal network. Server2 is located on a perimeter network.
You need to monitor Server2 by using Operations Manager.
Which three actions should you perform? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
A. Request and install a certificate on Server2, and then import the certificate to Server1.
B. Run the Discovery Wizard on Server1.
C. Open port UDP 161 and UDP 162 on the firewall between the internal network and the perimeter network.
D. Open port TCP 5723 on the firewall between the internal network and the perimeter network.
E. Manually install the Microsoft Monitoring Agent on Server2.
F. Request and install a certificate on Server1, and then import the certificate to Server2.
Answer: ADE
Explanation:
SCOM will authenticate by Kerberos or certificate.
In a domain it will be kerberos.
On an untrusted Workgroup Server there is no Kerberos so certificates will be used.
– Create certificate for the untrusted Server
– Import the certificate on the Operation Manager Server
– Open TCP 5723 both directions in Firewall if there is any (like in DMZ)

QUESTION 165
Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com.
The domain contains a domain controller named DC1 and a server named Server1.
You install the management server role on Server1.
You install the Operations Manager agent on DC1.
You run the Operations Manager console and discover the active alerts shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibit button.)
You need to resolve the active alerts.
What should you do?
A. On DC1, install MOMADAdmin.exe.
B. On Server1, install OomADs.msi.
C. On Server1, install MOMADAdmin.exe.
D. On DC1, install OomADs.msi.
Answer: D
Explanation:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh230736.aspx
You can use MOMAgent.msi to deploy System Center 2012 – Operations Manager agents from the command line.
Deploying agents from the command line is also referred to as a manual install
When installing the AD Management pack, please remember to open up the properties for the Agent which the DC is installed and check “Allow this agent to act as a proxy and discover managed objects on other computers.” ALSO, please install the “OOMADs.msi” locally on the DC.
What is this?
This is the Active Directory Management Helper Object.
It’s not well mentioned in documentation I have read up on.
Apparently the “AD Database and Log:
The script ‘AD Database and Log’ failed to create object ‘McActiveDir.ActiveDirectory’.
The error returned was: ‘ActiveX component can’t create object’ (0x1AD)” error is a result of not having this component installed “The file which is installed automatically on a push install via a Management Server can be copied and manually installed from the OpsMgr software — there is a HelpObjects folder where ooMADS.msi can be run from.”
