QUESTION 2
Drag and Drop Question
Your company has a private cloud that is managed by using a System Center 2012 Operations Manager infrastructure.
You need to ensure that members of a group named Group1 can resolve printing alerts by using the Operations Manager console.
The solution must minimize the number of Operations Manager permissions assigned to Group1. Which three actions should you perform in sequence? (To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.)
Answer: 
Explanation:
1. Import the Windows Server Print Server Management Pack – Required for monitoring printing
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc181012.aspx
2. Create an Operator User Role – Required to add Group1 to SCOM
3. Scope the User Role – To set this role to access print alerts only
No – Create an event viewer alert, technically feasible to set logging of print queues and then monitor events but Microsoft always asked for the BEST solution, hence the Print MP
No – Create a Subscription, there is no mention of notifications in the question
No – Create a run as account, the question says resolve the print ALERT not the fault itself
QUESTION 3
You need to recommend a solution to implement the planned changes for the research department. What should you include in the recommendation? (More than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST answer.)
A. The existing VMM infrastructure
B. The existing Service Manager infrastructure
C. A solution that includes System Center 2012 App Controller
D. The existing Orchestrator infrastructure
Answer: A
Explanation:
There is no existing SCSM infrastructure, App Controller is overkill,
so use the existing VMM infrastructure.
QUESTION 4
Your company has a private cloud that contains a Microsoft ASP.NET application.
The application is hosted by Internet Information Services (IIS) on a server named Server1.
The application is accessed by using multiple URLs.
You configure a watcher node on a server named Server2.
You need to ensure that an alert is generated each time the watcher node receives an HTTP error of 400 or more.
The solution must ensure that the cause of the alert is captured.
Which type of monitor should you create from the Operations Manager console?

QUESTION 5
Your company has a private cloud that is managed by using a System Center 2012 Operations Manager infrastructure.
The network contains three devices.
The devices are configured as shown in the following table.
You need to ensure that Operations Manager can discover all of the devices.
What should you do?
A. From the Operations Manager console, create one group and set the group to Dynamic Members.
B. From the Operations Manager console, create two Run As Accounts.
C. From the Operations Manager Shell, run the Set-SCOMUserRole cmdlet.
D. From the Operations Manager Shell, run the Enable-SCOMDiscovery cmdlet.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Each SNMPv3 device would need its own run as account.
As there are no SNMPv3 devices in the list only v1/v2 we need just one run as account per different community string.
As there are two diffrent community strings used for the 3 devices we need two run as accounts.

QUESTION 7
Drag and Drop Question
Your company has a private cloud that is managed by using a System Center 2012 Operations Manager infrastructure.
The infrastructure contains a management server named Server1.
The network contains two subnets named Subnet1 and Subnet2.
The two subnets are separated by a firewall that prevents SNMP communications.
Server1 is located on Subnet1.
A switch named Switch1 is located on Subnet2.
Switch1 has the following configurations:
– Network ID: 172.23.1.0/23
– IPv4 address: 172.23.1.55
– IPv6 address: fec0:2308::12
You need to discover Switch1.

QUESTION 8
Your company has a private cloud that is managed by using a System Center 2012 Operations Manager infrastructure.
The private cloud has a connection to a partner company.
The connection uses a router named Router1. Router1 is owned by the partner company.
The partner company’s security policy states that only partner company network administrators can access the configuration information of the partner company’s network devices.
You need to monitor the availability of Router1.
The solution must meet the security policy requirement.
Which access mode should you configure to discover Router1?
A. ICMP
B. SNMPv3
C. SNMPv1 and SNMPv2
D. ICMP, SNMPv1, and SNMPv2
E. ICMP and SNMPv3
Answer: A
Explanation:
It says we must not access the configuration information of the partner company’s network devices. So SNMP is not a choice, because it will give us just that.
To monitor the availability, in other words the online/offline status of the device, we may use ICMP.
Of course the device must answer to our ICMP requests like “ping”, but that is not part of the question.

QUESTION 10
Your company has a private cloud that is managed by using a System Center 2012 infrastructure. The company defines the Service Level Agreement (SLA) for a web application as 99 percent uptime.
You need to create service level objectives (SLOs) that meet the SLA requirement.
Which object or objects should you create from the Service Manager Console? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose all that apply.)
A. a queue
B. a connector
C. a channel
D. a calendar
E. a metric
F. a subscription
Answer: ADE
Explanation:
In SCSM 2012 the Service Level Management offers a great opportunity to implement SLAs for different IT management processes.
With the four components of SLA management you can build your own complex SLAs:
– Queues ->Which work items are covered in the SLA
– Calendar -> The service hours of an SLA
– Metrics ->What is measured in the SLA
– Service Level Objective -> Target of the SLA

QUESTION 15
Which of these answers is FALSE regarding System Center 2012 – Data Protection Manager (DPM)?
A. It must be deployed in a Windows Server 2008 or a Windows Server 2003 Active Directory Domain Services directory services structure to support its protection and recovery operations.
B. It does not support teamed network adapters (NICs)
C. If you are protecting data over a wide area network (WAN), there is a minimum network bandwidth requirement of 512 kilobits per second (Kbps).
D. If there is not a two-way trust across domains, you must have a separate DPM server for each domain.
Answer: B
Explanation:
DPM DOES support teamed network adapters, also called interface cards (NICs).
Teamed NICs are multiple physical NICs that are configured to be treated as a single NIC by the operating system. Teamed NICs provide increased bandwidth by combining the bandwidth available using each NIC and failover to the remaining NIC or NICs when a NIC fails.
DPM can use the increased bandwidth achieved by using teamed NICs on the DPM server.
