SHORT ANSWER
1. Describe the significant enhancements to Windows Deployment Services over the older Windows 2003 Remote Installation Services (RIS).
ANS:
There have been significant enhancements to WDS. The following reflects the major changes from RIS:
· Can deploy newer operating systems, such as Vista and Windows Server 2008
· Uses Windows PE as the boot operating system
· Uses Windows image (.wim) files for image-based installations
· Has multicast functionality
· Includes enhancements to the PXE server component
· Has an enhanced client GUI
· Allows WDS management through the WDS MMC snap-in
PTS: 1 REF: 26
2. Describe three tasks associated with installing and configuring Windows Deployment Services.
ANS:
Installing and configuring Windows Deployment Services involves:
· Installing Windows Deployment Services
· Configuring WDS by adding the Install.wim and Boot.wim (images are available in the \Source folder on the product CD/DVD)
· Installing the operating system
PTS: 1 REF: 27
3. Describe two prerequisites for installing the Transport Server only.
ANS:
The following are the prerequisites for installing the Transport Server only:
· Local Administrators Group Credentials. Must be a member of the Local Administrators group.
· PXE Provider. You must create a custom PXE provider to network boot. Windows Server 2008 R2 has a PXE Provider.
PTS: 1 REF: 28
4. Describe three ways to install Windows Deployment Services.
ANS:
Windows Deployment Services can be installed in three ways:
· From Server Manager. This chapter focuses on performing tasks using the Server Manager.
· Using the Initial Configuration Wizard. From the Initial Configuration Wizard, you can select to Add Roles to your server. The process of selecting the desired role to add is very similar to adding roles to your server using the Server Manager.
· From the command line.
PTS: 1 REF: 29
5. List four guidelines for installing a boot image.
ANS:
Boot image guidelines include:
· The boot menu can have up to 13 boot images
· The .wim file name cannot have spaces
· You can use the Windows Server 2008 Boot.wim file
· Double-byte character sets do not always display properly
PTS: 1 REF: 38
6. Describe the prerequisites for adding an install image.
ANS:
The following are prerequisites for adding an install image:
· The client must be able to do a PXE boot.
· The client must be a member of a Domain Users group.
· The client computer must have at least 512 MB RAM.
· The client computer must meet or exceed the client system requirements required for the install image for that operating system.
PTS: 1 REF: 41
7. Describe how to use Windows Deployment Services to automate the deployment task.
ANS:
You can automate the deployment using an unattend file for the user interface of Windows Deployment Services and another unattend file for the remainder of the setup.
PTS: 1 REF: 46
8. Explain how to configure Volume Activation.
ANS:
The Software License Manager (Slmgr.vbs) is a Visual Basic (VB) script that is used to configure Volume Activation. It can be run locally or remotely. The script should be run from an elevated command prompt to ensure the key operations are not prohibited when the script runs. To open an elevated command prompt, click Start, right-click Command Prompt, and select Run as Administrator.
The general syntax of Slmgr.vbs is as follows:
slmgr.vbs /parameter
PTS: 1 REF: 47
9. Describe how to allow WMI Traffic through the Windows Firewall.
ANS:
In order for VA to work and not be blocked by the Windows Firewall, the Windows Firewall must be configured to allow Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) traffic; likewise, the same concept would apply for other security devices that you have enabled on the network. Allow the Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) exception in Windows Firewall, in a single subnet.
For multiple subnets, allow the following connections:
· Windows Management Instrumentation (ASync-In)
· Windows Management Instrumentation (DCOM-In)
· Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI-In)
· Allow remote access in the scope
PTS: 1 REF: 48
10. How do you deploy KMS clients?
ANS:
Use the system preparation (Sysprep) tool or the Slmgr.vbs script when using the Windows Automated Installation Kit (Windows AIK) for deployment and activation. The Windows AIK enables you to create and deploy customized images for supported Windows operating systems. Windows AIK enables you to do unattended installations, capture images, and create PE images.
