1. You are the administrator of a Windows Server 2003 computer named Server1. Server1 has a single disk. The

disk is configured so that it has four primary partitions, which are formatted as FAT32. The disk also has unallocated space available.
You need to use the unallocated disk space to store user data. What should you do?
A. Convert all existing partitions to NTFS.

B. Using Diskpart.exe, run the create command.

C. Convert the disk to a dynamic disk, and create a new volume. D. Using Diskpart.exe, run the extend command.
Answer: C

2. You are a network administrator for your company. A Windows Server 2003 computer named Server1 functions

as a file server.

Server1 has two data volumes: volume E and volume F. Volume E contains user data. The E:\UserData folder is shared as Users. The Volume Shadow Copy service is scheduled to create a shadow copy backup twice a day on volume E, using the default storage area.
Users report that only the most recent file versions are available in the Previous Versions property of the Users share. You discover that volume E does not have enough space and is discarding old shadow copies too soon. You decide to move the shadow copy storage area to volume F. However, when you open the settings for the volume E shadow copy, you cannot change the storage area location.
You need to move the shadow copy storage area to volume F so that there is enough space for additional copies. What should you do?
A. Add a shadow copy to volume F by using the VSSAdmin command Create Shadow. Then remove the old shadow copy storage association by using the VSSAdmin command Delete Shadows.
B. Change the folder properties on volume E so that you can view protected operating system files. Copy the System Volume Information folder to volume F. Then change the shadow copy storage area of volume E to volume F.
C. Add a shadow copy storage association to volume F by using the VSSAdmin command Add ShadowStorage. Then remove the old shadow copy storage association by using the VSSAdmin command Delete ShadowStorage.
D. Back up and delete all current shadow copies for volume E. Move the shadow copy storage area of volume E

to volume F. Then restore the backup copy to the new location.

QUESTION 1
You work as an application developer at Certkiller .com. You are in the process of
creating an application that will display confidential employee information.
When your manager informs you that only managers and administrators should be
able to view the information, you utilize windows authentication and .NET
role-based security to guarantee this.
The network administrator in your department informs you that he has noticed that
there are certain users that are not managers or administrators are able to view the
employee information. You immediately analyze your code, and discover an issue
with domain group memberships.
The network administrator asks you to trace the user account and security
identifier (SID) of each user in the application so that he can use this information to
detect users across the enterprise and verify that their group memberships are
correct.
How would you do this?
A. Use the following code:
WindowsIdentity curID = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent ();
NTAccount account = new NTAccount (curID.Name);
SecurityIdentifier sid = (SecurityIdentifier);
account.Translate (typeof (SecurityIdentifier));
Trace.Write (”User’s SID is” + sid.Value, “User” + account.Value);
B. Use the following code:
WindowsIdentity curID = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent ();
NTAccount account = new NTAccount (curID.Name);
Trace.Write (”User’s SID is” + sid.Value, “User” + account.Value);
C. Use the following code:
WindowsIdentity curID = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent ();
Trace.Write (”User’s SID is” + curID.Value, “User” + sid.Name);
D. Use the following code:
WindowsIdentity curID = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent ();
SecurityIdentifier sid = new SecurityIdentifier (curID.Name);
Trace.Write (”User’s SID is” + curID.Value, “User” + sid.Name);
Answer: A
Explanation: This code retrieves the current WindowsIdentity object associated
with the user, instantiates an NTAccount object using the Name property, invokes
the Translate method to retrieve the current SecurityIdentifier object, and invokes
the Write method on the Trace class to record the Value property of both the

Actualtests.org – The Power of Knowing
SecurityIdentifier and NTAccount objects. The GetCurrent method of the
WindowsIdentity object represents the identity of the application user. The
NTAccount class represents a Windows user group account in the local Security
Accounts Manager (SAM) or in the Active Directory domain. The constructor of the
NTAccount class accepts either a single string representing the account name or two
strings, one representing the domain name and the other representing the account
on that domain. To facilitate SID lookups, the Translate method takes a Type
argument and returns an IdentityReference object. You must convert or cast the
IdentityReference object to a SecurityIdentifier object to retrieve the Sid for the
specified account. The Value property of the SecurityIdentifier and NTAccount
class returns a SID and fully-qualified user name string, respectively. The Write
method of the Trace class outputs the specified message into the specified category.
Incorrect Answers:
B: You should not use the code that does not specify the SecurityIdentifier class because
the NTAccount class does not have a SID property.
C: You should not use the code that does not specify the NTAccount and
SecurityIdentifier classes because there is no SID property in the WindowsIdentity class.
D: You should not use the code that does not specify the NTAccount class because a
SecurityIdentifier object cannot be instantiated using an account name as an argument,
and it does not contain a Name property.
QUESTION 2
You work as an application developer at Certkiller .com. You are currently creating
a sales report application that requires Windows authentication on Certkiller .com’s
domain.
To achieve this, you are required to implement role-based security within the sales
report application.
You establish that the method shown below should only be invoked by members of
the Managers group:
public void UpdateEmpSalesBonus (int empID, double amount)
{
//Update employee’s salary
}
You need to ensure that invocation of the UpdateEmpSalesBonus method is
restricted to only managers.
What should you do? (Choose two)
A. Apply the following attribute to the UpdateEmpSalesBonus method:
[WindowsPricipalPermission (SecurityAction.Demand, Role = "Managers")]
B. Apply the following code to the UpdateEmpSalesBonus method:
WindowsIdentity user = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent ();
if (user.IsInRole (”Managers”))
{
//Update employee’s salary
}
C. Apply the following attribute to the UpdateEmpSalesBonus method:

Actualtests.org – The Power of Knowing
[PricipalPermission (SecurityAction.Demand, Role = "Managers")]
D. Apply the following code to the UpdateEmpSalesBonus method:
if (Thread.CurrentPricipal.IsInRole (”Managers”))
{
//Update employee’s salary
}
Answer: C, D
Explanation: Imperative role-based security can use the PricipalPermission class or
the IPrincipal object directly. The PricipalPermission class takes a user name and
role as string arguments representing the required membership. The Demand
method indicates that all callers must belong to the user or group membership
specified in the constructor to access the resource. The IPrincipal object can be
retrieved using the Thread.CurrentPricipal property. The IsInRole method takes a
role argument as a string and returns a Boolean value indicating whether the
current caller belongs to that group or not.
Incorrect Answers:
A: You should not use the attribute that applies the WindowsPricipalPermission attribute
because no such attribute exists in the .NET Framework 2.0 class library.
B: You should not use the code that invokes the IsInRole method on the
WindowsIdentity class because no such method exists.
QUESTION 3
You work as the application developer at Certkiller .com. Certkiller .com uses Visual
Studio.NET 2005 as its application development platform. You use a Windwos XP
Professional client computer named Certkiller -WS536 as your development
computer.
You are developing a .NET Framework 2.0 application on Certkiller -WS536. You
are trying to port an old Certkiller .com management application that was written in
unmanaged Windows code with no COM interfaces. The application you are
developing makes calls to the old Certkiller .com management unmanaged library
namedBillPerformance.dll.
You are required to make a call to the GetPerformaceScore method of the
unmanaged Performance.dll library.
What should you do?
A. The Type Library Exporter tool (tlbexp.exe) should be used
B. The Type Library Importer tool (tlbimp.exe) should be used
C. The Assembly Registration tool (regasm.exe) should be used
D. The Platform Invoke (DllImportAttribute) should be used
Answer: D
Explanation: The feature Platform Invoke is used to allow you to call methods that
are in unmanaged libraries but you need to declare the unmanaged method in the

Actualtests.org – The Power of Knowing
managed code using the extern and static keywords with the DllImport attribute
which is used to specify the unmanaged library.
Incorrect Answers:
A, B, C: The tool should not be considered for usage in the scenario because th

Ordinary measures to obtain CompTIA CompTIA Network+

2010-02-25T18:17:00.001-08:00

To be authentificated by CompTIA, you have to spend enough time in working hard on the preparation.Although there are some differences between every certifications, the folowing steps are generally the same. We will take CompTIA Network+ for example.In the event that you are interested in the CompTIA Network+ or CompTIA certificate and in the process to get one then you should be alert.

Firstly, select and decide on a certificate. Some people think that this step does not matter; in fact, they are wrong, because only by making your direction clear can you send off.

Measure you capacity and experience. Find out the gap between your ability with that requested by CompTIA Network+.

We cannot ignore the study and preparation at the same time. You can do as the follows, first of all, book is the best teacher. It's the first thing to get a good understanding of books. Textbooks are always cheap and practical.
2)Visit the CompTIA Network+ message board frequently, where people along with textual research can share the exam experience, in IT Forum.
3, If you have enough time and money, attending a training course is a good choice.
4, Tring to do some online tests. On the internet, you can find similar JK0-016 exmation question easily. The more you practice, the more familiar with the examination process.
(5) You may also have to visit the official website of CompTIA regularly, because the latest information about the test are always released there.

Go on to prepare for more certificates. It quite unwise to think that it over as soon as you get CompTIA CompTIA Network+. You better continue to find something else authentical which can be favourable to enhance your ability.

Finally, we should emphasize that taking examinations and getting the certification are only with the purpose of learning more knowledge, so don try to take the examination easily unless you have got ready for it.

QUESTION 1
You are creating a Web site for Certkiller . You receive product lists in the form of XML documents. You
are creating a procedure to extract information from these XML documents according to criteria that
your users will select.
When a user makes a request, you want the results of these requests to be returned as quickly as possible.
What should you do?
A. Create an XmlDataDocument object and load it with the XML data.
Use the DataSet property of the object to create a DataSet object.
Use a SQL SELECT statement to extract the requested data.
B. Create an XmlDataDocument object and load it with the XML data.
Use the SelectNodes method of the object to extract the requested data.
C. Create an XPathDocument object and load it with the XML data.
Call the CreateNavigator method to create an XPathNavigator object.
Call the Select method of the XPathNavigator object to run an XPath query that extracts the requested
data.
D. Create an XmlReader object.
Use the Read method of the object to stream through the XML data and to apply an XPath expression to
extract the requested data.

Actualtests.org – The Power of Knowing
Answer: C
Explanation: The XPathDocument class provides a fast read-only cache for XML document processing using
XSLT. XPath (XML Path Language) is a graph navigation language. XPath is used to select a set of nodes from
an XML document.
Reference: .NET Framework Class Library, XPathDocument Class
QUESTION 2
You are creating an ASP.NET application for Certkiller . The application will be used to identify potential
customers.
Your application will call an XML Web service run by Wide World Importers. The XML Web service
will return an ADO.NET DataSet object containing a list of companies that purchase wine. You want to
merge this DataSet object into a DataSet object containing a list of companies that are potential
customers.
You specify wideWorld as the name of the DataSet object form Wide World Importers, and you specify
customerProspects as the name of the DataSet object containing potential customers. After the merge,
customerProspects will include the company names in wideWorld.
The two DataSet objects contain tables that have the same names and primary keys. The tables in the two
DataSet objects contain columns that have the same names and data types. A table in wideWorld also
contains additional columns that you do not want to add to customerProspects. If customerProspects
included any tables containing rows with pending changes, you want to preserve the current values in
those rows when the merge occurs.
Which lime of code should you use to merge the wideWorld DataSet object into customerProspects
DataSet object?
A. customerProspects.Merge (wideWorld, true,
MissingSchemaAction.Ignore);
B. customerProspects.Merge (wideWorld, true,
MissingSchemaAction.AddWithKey);
C. wideWorld.Merge (customerProspects, true,
MissingSchemaAction.Ignore);
D. wideWorld.Merge (customerProspects, true,
MissingSchemaAction.Add);
Answer: A
Explanation: The DataSet.Merge (DataTable, Boolean, MissingSchemaAction) method merges this DataTable
with a specified DataTable preserving changes according to the specified argument, and handling an
incompatible schema according to the specified argument.
As we want to merge the DataSets into the wideWorld DataSet we should apply the merge method on
wideWorld.
The Ignore MissingSchemaAction ignores the extra columns. This meets the requirement not to add the extra
columns from the table in wideWorld that contains additional columns.
Reference: .NET Framework Class Library, DataSet.Merge Method (DataTable, Boolean,
MissingSchemaAction) [C#]

Actualtests.org – The Power of Knowing
.NET Framework Class Library, MissingSchemaAction Enumeration [C#]
Incorrect Answers
B: The AddWithKey MissingSchemaAction adds the necessary columns and primary key information to
complete the schema. However, we do not want to add any extra columns.
C, D: As we want to merge the DataSets into the customerProspects DataSet we should apply the merge
method on customerProspects, not on wideWorld .
QUESTION 3
You are creating an ASP.NET page that contains a Label control named specialsLabel. A text file named
Specials.txt contains a list of products. Specials.txt is located in the application directory. Each product
name listed in Specials.txt is followed by a carriage return.
You need to display a list of featured products in specialsLabel. You need to retrieve the lost of products
from Specials.txt.
Which code segment should you use?
A. System.IO.StreamReader reader =
System.IO.File.OpenText(
Server.MapPath(”Specials.txt”));
string inout = “”;
while (input !=null)
{
specialsLabel.Text =
string.Format(”{0}
{1} “,
specialsLabel.Text, input);
input = reader.BaseStream.ToString();
}
reader.Close();
B. System.IO.StreamReader reader =
System.IO.File.OpenText(
Server.MapPath(”Specials.txt”));
string inout = “”;
input = reader.ReadLine();
while (input != null)
{
specialsLabel.Text =
string.Format(”{0}
{1} “,
specialsLabel.Text, input);
input = reader.ReadLine();
}
reader.Close()
C. System.IO.Stream strm = System.IO.File.OpenRead(
Server.MapPath(”Specials.txt”));
byte[] b 0 new byte[1024];
string input;
input = strm.Read(b, 0, b.Length).ToString();

Actualtests.org – The Power of Knowing
specialsLabel.Text = input
strm.Close();
D. System.IO.Stream strm = System.IO.File.OpenRead(
Server.MapPath(”Specials.txt”));
string input;
input = strm.ToString();
specialsLabel.Text = input;
strm.Close();
Answer: B
Explanation: We create a StreamReader. We then read one line at a time and display each line appropriately,
until the stream is empty.
Reference: .NET Framework Developer’s Guide, Reading Text from a File [C#]
Incorrect Answers
A: The StreamReader.BaseStream property Returns the underlying stream. We cannot use the ToString
method on a stream. The following command is incorrect:
input = reader.BaseStream.ToString()
C: We should read a line a time, not a byte.
D: We cannot use the ToString method on a FileStream.

QUESTION 1
You work as a software developer at Certkiller .com. You develop an application that
includes a Contact Class, which is defined by the following code:
Public Class Contact
Private name As String
Public Event ContactSaved()
Public Property Name()
Get
Return name
End Get
Set(ByVal Value)
name = Value
End Set
End Property
Public Sub Save()
‘Insert Save Code.
RaiseEvent ContactSaved()
End Sub
End Class
You create a form named MainForm. This form must include code to handle the
ContactSaved event raised by the Contact object. The Contact object will be
initialized by a procedure named CreateContact.
Which code segment should you use?
A. Public Class MainForm
Private oContact As New Contact()
Private Sub HandleContactSave()
‘Insert event handling code.
End Sub
Private Sub CreateContact()
oContact.Name = “Certkiller”
oContact.Save()
End Sub
End Class
B. Public Class MainForm
Private WithEvents oContact As New Contact()
Private Sub HandleContactSave()
‘Insert event handling code.
End Sub
Private Sub CreateContact ()
oContact.Name = “Certkiller”
oContact.Save()

Actualtests.org – The Power of Knowing
End Sub
End Class
C. Public Class MainForm
Private WithEvents oContact AsNew Contact()
Private Sub HandleContactSave()
Handles oContact.ContactSaved
‘Insert Event handling code.
End Sub
Private Sub CreateContact ()
oContact.Name = “Certkiller”
oContact.Save()
End Sub
End Class
D. Public Class MainForm
Private WithEvents oContact As New Contact()
Private Sub HandleContactSave() _
Handles oContact.ContactSaved
‘Insert event handling code.
End Sub
Private Sub CreateContact ()
Dim oContact As New Contact()
oContact.Name = “Certkiller”
oContact.Save()
End Sub
End Class
Answer: C
Explanation:
Not D: Public Class Main Form
Private WithEvents oContact As New Contant()
Private Sub HandleContactSave() Handles oContact.ContactSaved
‘Insert event handling code.
End Sub
Private Sub CreateContact()
Dim oContact as New Contact()
oContact.Name = “Certkiller”
oContact.Save()
End Sub
End Class
The problem with this code is that the Class Level oContact that is specified WithEvents,
is hidden by the Method Level variable of the same name inside the CreateContact
procedure. Therefore the save method call will not have any effect as there is no event
handler for the method level variable.
There fore the correct answer is C

The PMP Certification

2010-01-06T19:20:00.001-08:00

One of the most intensive certifications available is the PMP (Project Management Professional) certification. Offered by PMI (Project Management Institute), the PMP demonstrates advanced knowledge of and experience with Project Management concepts. When it comes to finding internet resources and practice exams, it is also one of the most difficult and obscure certifications. As a result of several emails asking for this information, and quite a bit of research, here are the best places to find information on the PMP cert.
PMP Training

Most training for the PMP certification is both intensive and costly, but the PMP is generally considered a good investment. According to my 2002 certification salary survey, individuals with a PMI cert averaged $90,000 per year. Fortunately, good practice questions are just beginning to appear on popular training sites so you can get an idea of where your strengths and weaknesses lay before taking the exam

The Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) is a set of concepts and techniques for managing information technology (IT) infrastructure, development, and operations.

ITIL is published in a series of books, each of which cover an IT management topic. The names ITIL and IT Infrastructure Library are registered trademarks of the United Kingdom’s Office of Government Commerce (OGC). ITIL gives a detailed description of a number of important IT practices with comprehensive checklists, tasks and procedures that can be tailored to any IT organization.

[edit] Certification

An ITIL Foundation certificate pin.ITIL certifications are managed by the ITIL Certification Management Board (ICMB) which is composed of the OGC, IT Service Management Forum (itSMF) International and two examinations institutes: EXIN (based in the Netherlands) and ISEB (based in the UK).

The EXIN and ISEB administer exams and award qualifications at Foundation, Practitioner and Manager/Masters level currently in ‘ITIL Service Management’, ‘ITIL Application Management’ and ‘ICT Infrastructure Management’ respectively.

A voluntary registry of ITIL-certified practitioners is operated by the ITIL Certification Register.

Organizations or a management system may not be certified as “ITIL-compliant”. However an organization that has implemented ITIL guidance in ITSM may be able to achieve compliance with and seek certification under ISO/IEC 20000.

On July 20, 2006, the OGC signed a contract with the APM Group to be its commercial partner for ITIL accreditation from January 1, 2007.[1] The OGC’s failure to further formalize institutional relationships with the itSMF as part of these activities has been controversial.[citation needed]
[edit] ITIL History

[edit] Precursors
Many of the concepts did not originate within the original UK Government’s Central Computer and Telecommunications Agency (CCTA) project to develop ITIL. According to IBM:

In the early 1980s, IBM documented the original Systems Management concepts in a four-volume series called A Management System for Information Systems. These widely accepted yellow books, … were key inputs to the original set of ITIL books.”[2][3]

The primary author of the IBM yellow books was Edward A. Van Schaik, who compiled them into the 1985 book A Management System for the Information Business[4] (since updated with a 2006 re-issue by Red Swan Publishing[5]). In the 1985 work, Van Schaik in turn references a 1974 Richard L. Nolan work, Managing the Data Resource Function[6] which may be the earliest known systematic English-language treatment of the topic of large scale IT management (as opposed to technological implementation).
[edit] Development
What is now called ITIL version 1, developed under the auspices of the CCTA, was titled “Government Information Technology Infrastructure Management Methodology” (GITMM) and over several years eventually expanded to 31 volumes in a project initially directed by Peter Skinner and John Stewart at the CCTA. The publications were retitled primarily as a result of the desire (by Roy Dibble of CCTA) that the publications be seen as guidance and not as a formal method and as a result of growing interest from outside of the UK Government.

During the late 1980s the CCTA was under sustained attack, both from IT companies who wanted to take over the central Government consultancy service it provided, and from other Government departments who wanted to break free of its oversight. Eventually CCTA succumbed and the concept of a central driving IT authority for the UK Government was lost. This meant that adoption of CCTA guidance such as ITIL was delayed, as various other departments fought to take over new responsibilities.

In some cases this guidance was lost permanently. For instance, the CCTA IT Security and Privacy group provided the CCTA IT Security Library input to GITMM, but when CCTA was broken up the security service appropriated this work and suppressed it as part of their turf war over security responsibilities.

Although developed during the 1980s, for the reasons mentioned above ITIL was not widely adopted until the mid 1990s. This wider adoption and awareness has led to a number of standards, including ISO/IEC 20000 which is an international standard covering the IT Service Management elements of ITIL. ITIL is often considered alongside other best practice frameworks such as the Information Services Procurement Library (ISPL), the Application Services Library (ASL), Dynamic Systems Development Method (DSDM), the Capability Maturity Model (CMM/CMMI), and is often linked with IT governance through Control Objectives for Information and related Technology (COBIT).

In December 2005, the OGC issued notice of an ITIL refresh,[7] commonly known as ITIL v3, which became available in May 2007. ITIL v3 initially includes five core texts:

Service Strategy
Service Design
Service Transition
Service Operation
Continual Service Improvement
These publications update much of the current v2 and extend the scope of ITIL in the domain of service management.
[edit] ITIL alternatives
IT Service Management as a concept is related but not equivalent to ITIL which, in Version 2, contained a subsection specifically entitled IT Service Management (ITSM). (The five volumes of version 3 have no such demarcated subsection). The combination of the Service Support and Service Delivery volumes are generally equivalent to the scope of the ISO/IEC 20000 standard (previously BS 15000).

Outside of ITIL, other IT Service Management approaches and frameworks exist, including the Enterprise Computing Institute’s library covering general issues of large scale IT management, including various Service Management subjects.

The British Educational Communications and Technology Agency (BECTA) has developed the Framework for ICT Technical Support (FITS) and is based on ITIL, but it is slimmed down for UK primary and secondary schools (which often have very small IT departments). Similarly, The Visible OPS Handbook: Implementing ITIL in 4 Practical and Auditable Steps claims to be based on ITIL but to focus specifically on the biggest “bang for the buck” elements of ITIL.

Organizations that need to understand how ITIL processes link to a broader range of IT processes or need task level detail to guide their service management implementation can use the IBM Tivoli Unified Process (ITUP). Like MOF, ITUP is aligned with ITIL, but is presented as a complete, integrated process model.

Smaller organizations that cannot justify a full ITIL program and materials can gain insight into ITIL from a review of the Microsoft Operations Framework which is based on ITIL but defines a more limited implementation.

The enhanced Telecom Operations Map eTOM published by the TeleManagement Forum offers an alternative framework aimed at telecommunications service providers.
[edit] Overview of the ITIL 2 library
The IT Infrastructure Library originated as a collection of books each covering a specific practice within IT Service Management. After the initial publication, the number of books quickly grew within ITIL v1 to over 30 volumes. In order to make ITIL more accessible (and affordable) to those wishing to explore it, one of the aims of ITIL v2 was to consolidate the publications into logical ’sets’ that grouped related process guidelines into the different aspects of IT management, applications and services.

While the Service Management sets (Service Support and Service Delivery) are by far the most widely used, circulated and understood of ITIL publications, ITIL provides a more comprehensive set of practices as a whole. Proponents believe that using the broader library provides a comprehensive set of guidance to link the technical implementation, operations guidelines and requirements with the strategic management, operations management and financial management of a modern business.

The eight ITIL version 2 books and their disciplines are:

The IT Service Management sets

1. Service Delivery
2. Service Support
Other operational guidance

3. ICT Infrastructure Management
4. Security Management
5. The Business Perspective
6. Application Management
7. Software Asset Management
To assist with the implementation of ITIL practices a further book was published providing guidance on implementation (mainly of Service Management):

8. Planning to Implement Service Management
And this has more recently been supplemented with guidelines for smaller IT units, not included in the original eight publications:

9. ITIL Small-Scale Implementation
ITIL is built around a process-model based view of controlling and managing operations often credited to W. Edwards Deming[citation needed]. The ITIL recommendations were developed in the 1980s by the UK Government’s CCTA in response to the growing dependence on IT and a recognition that without standard practices, government agencies and private sector contracts were independently creating their own IT management practices and duplicating effort within their Information and Communications Technology (ICT) projects resulting in common mistakes and increased costs.[citation needed] In April 2001 the CCTA was merged into the Office of Government Commerce (OGC), an office of the UK Treasury.[8]

One of the primary benefits claimed by proponents of ITIL within the IT community is its provision of common vocabulary, consisting of a glossary of tightly defined and widely agreed terms. A new and enhanced glossary has been developed as a key deliverable of the ITIL v3 (also known as the ITIL Refresh Project).
[edit] Overview of the ITIL v3 library
ITIL v3, published in May 2007, comprises 5 key volumes:

1. Service Strategy
a) Value Creation
-Service Utility
-Service Warrenty
b)Service Assets
-Capabilities
-Resources
c) Service Provider Types
-Type 1-Internal Service Provider
-Type 2-Shared Service Group
-Type 3-External Service Provider
d) Service Structures
e) Service Strategy Funditmentals
2. Service Design
3. Service Transition
4. Service Operation
5. Continual Service Improvement

[edit] Details of the ITIL v2 framework

[edit] Service Support
The Service Support[9] ITIL discipline is focused on the User of the ICT services and is primarily concerned with ensuring that they have access to the appropriate services to support the business functions.

To a business, customers and users are the entry point to the process model. They get involved in service support by:

Asking for changes
Needing communication, updates
Having difficulties, queries.
The service desk is the single contact point for the customers to record their problems. It will try to resolve it, if there is a direct solution or will create an incident. Incidents initiate a chain of processes: Incident Management, Problem Management, Change Management, Release Management and Configuration Management (see following sections for details). This chain of processes is tracked using the Configuration Management Database (CMDB), which records each process, and creates output documents for traceability (Quality Management).
[edit] Service Desk / Service Request Management
The Service Desk function is the single point of contact between users and IT Service Management.

Main article: Service Desk (ITSM)
Tasks include handling incidents and requests, and providing an interface for other ITSM processes.

Single Point of Contact (SPOC) and not necessarily the First Point of Contact (FPOC)
There is a single point of entry and exit
Easier for Customers
Data Integrity
Communication channel is streamlined
The primary functions of the Service Desk are:

Incident Control: life cycle management of all Service Requests
Communication: keeping the customer informed of progress and advising on workarounds
The Service Desk function is known under various names .

Call Centre: main emphasis on professionally handling large call volumes of telephone-based transactions
Help Desk: manage, co-ordinate and resolve incidents as quickly as possible
Service Desk: not only handles incidents, problems and questions but also provides an interface for other activities such as change requests, maintenance contracts, software licenses, Service Level Management, Configuration Management, Availability Management, Financial Management and IT Services Continuity Management
The three types of structure that can be considered are:

Local Service Desk: to meet local business needs – is practical only until multiple locations requiring support services are involved
Central Service Desk: for organizations having multiple locations – reduces operational costs and improves usage of available resources
Virtual Service Desk: for organizations having multi-country locations – can be situated and accessed from anywhere in the world due to advances in network performance and telecommunications, reducing operational costs and improving usage of available resources

[edit] Incident Management
The goal of Incident Management is to restore normal service operation as quickly as possible and minimize the adverse effect on business operations, thus ensuring that the best possible levels of service quality and availability are maintained. ‘Normal service operation’ is defined here as service operation within Service Level Agreement (SLA) limits.
Main article: Incident Management (ITSM)

[edit] Software Asset Management
Software asset management (SAM) is the practice of integrating people, processes and technology to allow software licenses and usage to be systematically tracked, evaluated and managed. The goal of SAM is to reduce IT expenditures, human resource overhead and risks inherent in owning and managing software assets.

SAM includes maintaining software license compliance; tracking the inventory and usage of software assets; and maintaining standard policies and procedures surrounding the definition, deployment, configuration, use and retirement of software assets. SAM represents the software component of IT asset management, which also includes hardware asset management (to which SAM is intrinsicly linked by the concept that without effective inventory hardware controls, efforts to control the software thereon will be significantly inhibited).
Main article: Software Asset Management

[edit] Problem Management
The goal of ‘Problem Management’ is to resolve the root cause of incidents and thus to minimize the adverse impact of incidents and problems on business that are caused by errors within the IT infrastructure, and to prevent recurrence of incidents related to these errors. A `problem’ is an unknown underlying cause of one or more incidents, and a `known error’ is a problem that is successfully diagnosed and for which either a work-around or a permanent resolution has been identified. The CCTA defines problems and known errors as follows:

A problem is a condition often identified as a result of multiple Incidents that exhibit common symptoms. Problems can also be identified from a single significant Incident, indicative of a single error, for which the cause is unknown, but for which the impact is significant.
A known error is a condition identified by successful diagnosis of the root cause of a problem, and the subsequent development of a Work-around.
Problem management is different from incident management. The principal purpose of problem management is to find and resolve the root cause of a problem and prevention of incidents; the purpose of incident management is to return the service to normal level as soon as possible, with smallest possible business impact.
The problem management process is intended to reduce the number and severity of incidents and problems on the business, and report it in documentation to be available for the first-line and second line of the help desk. The proactive process identifies and resolves problems before incidents occur. These activities are:

Trend analysis;
Targeting support action;
Providing information to the organization.
The Error Control Process is an iterative process to diagnose known errors until they are eliminated by the successful implementation of a change under the control of the Change Management process.

The Problem Control Process aims to handle problems in an efficient way. Problem control identifies the root cause of incidents and reports it to the service desk. Other activities are:

Problem identification and recording;
Problem classification;
Problem investigation and diagnosis.
The standard technique for identifying the root cause of a problem is to use an Ishikawa diagram, also referred to as a cause-and-effect diagram, tree diagram, or fishbone diagram. An Ishikawa diagram is typically the result of a brainstorming session in which members of a group offer ideas to improve a product. For problem-solving, the goal will be to find the cause and effect of the problem.

Ishikawa diagrams can be defined in a meta-model.

First there is the main subject, which is the backbone of the diagram that we are trying to solve or improve. The main subject is derived from a cause. The relationship between a cause and an effect is a double relation: an effect is a result of a cause, and the cause is the root of an effect. But there is just one effect for several causes and one cause for several effects.

[edit] Configuration Management
Configuration Management is a process that tracks all of the individual Configuration Items (CI) in a system.

Main article: Configuration Management (ITSM)

[edit] Change Management
The goal of Change Management is to ensure that standardized methods and procedures are used for efficient handling of all changes, in order to minimize the impact of change-related incidents and to improve day-to-day operations.

Main article: Change Management (ITSM)
A change is �an event that results in a new status of one or more configuration items (CI’s)� approved by management, cost effective, enhances business process changes (fixes) – with a minimum risk to IT infrastructure.

The main aims of Change Management are:

Minimal disruption of services
Reduction in back-out activities
Economic utilization of resources involved in the change

[edit] Change Management Terminology
Change: the addition, modification or removal of CIs
Request for Change (RFC): form used to record details of a request for a change and is sent as an input to Change Management by the Change Requestor
Forward Schedule of Changes (FSC): schedule that contains details of all the forthcoming Changes

[edit] Release Management
Release Management is used for platform-independent and automated distribution of software and hardware, including license controls across the entire IT infrastructure. Proper software and hardware control ensures the availability of licensed, tested, and version-certified software and hardware, which will function as intended when introduced into the existing infrastructure. Quality control during the development and implementation of new hardware and software is also the responsibility of Release Management. This guarantees that all software meets the demands of the business processes. The goals of release management are:

Plan the rollout of software
Design and implement procedures for the distribution and installation of changes to IT systems
Effectively communicate and manage expectations of the customer during the planning and rollout of new releases
Control the distribution and installation of changes to IT systems
The focus of release management is the protection of the live environment and its services through the use of formal procedures and checks.

Release Categories
A Release consists of the new or changed software and/or hardware required to implement approved changes
Releases are categorized as:

Major software releases and hardware upgrades, normally containing large amounts of new functionality, some of which may make intervening fixes to problems redundant. A major upgrade or release usually supersedes all preceding minor upgrades, releases and emergency fixes.
Minor software releases and hardware upgrades, normally containing small enhancements and fixes, some of which may have already been issued as emergency fixes. A minor upgrade or release usually supersedes all preceding emergency fixes.
Emergency software and hardware fixes, normally containing the corrections to a small number of known problems.

Releases can be divided based on the release unit into:
Delta Release: is a release of only that part of the software which has been changed. For example, security patches.
Full Release: means that the entire software program will be deployed. For example, a new version of an existing application.
Packaged Release: is a combination of many changes. For example, an operating system image which also contains specific applications.

[edit] Service Delivery
The Service Delivery [10] discipline is primarily concerned with the proactive and forward-looking services that the business requires of its ICT provider in order to provide adequate support to the business users. It is focused on the business as the customer of the ICT services (compare with: Service Support). The discipline consists of the following processes, explained in subsections below:

Service Level Management
Capacity Management
IT Service Continuity Management
Availability Management
Financial Management
[edit] Service Level Management
Service Level Management provides for continual identification, monitoring and review of the levels of IT services specified in the service level agreements (SLAs). Service Level Management ensures that arrangements are in place with internal IT Support Providers and external suppliers in the form of Operational Level Agreements (OLAs) and Underpinning Contracts (UCs). The process involves assessing the impact of change upon service quality and SLAs. The service level management process is in close relation with the operational processes to control their activities. The central role of Service Level Management makes it the natural place for metrics to be established and monitored against a benchmark.

Service Level Management is the primary interface with the customer (as opposed to the user, who is serviced by the Service Desk). Service Level Management is responsible for

ensuring that the agreed IT services are delivered when and where they are supposed to be
liaising with Availability Management, Capacity Management, Incident Management and Problem Management to ensure that the required levels and quality of service are achieved within the resources agreed with Financial Management
producing and maintaining a Service Catalog (a list of standard IT service options and agreements made available to customers)
ensuring that appropriate IT Service Continuity plans have been made to support the business and its continuity requirements.
The Service Level Manager relies on all the other areas of the Service Delivery process to provide the necessary support which ensures the agreed services are provided in a cost effective, secure and efficient manner.
[edit] Capacity Management
Capacity Management supports the optimum and cost effective provision of IT services by helping organizations match their IT resources to the business demands. The high-level activities are Application Sizing, Workload Management, Demand Management, Modeling, Capacity Planning, Resource Management, and Performance Management.
[edit] IT Service Continuity Management
IT Service Continuity Management helps to ensure the availability and rapid restoration of IT services in the event of a disaster. The high level activities are Risk Analysis, Contingency Plan Management, Contingency Plan Testing, and Risk Management.
[edit] Availability Management
Availability Management allows organizations to sustain the IT service availability in order to support the business at a justifiable cost. The high-level activities are Realize Availability Requirements, Compile Availability Plan, Monitor Availability, and Monitor Maintenance Obligations.

Availability Management is the ability of an IT component to perform at an agreed level over a period of time.

Reliability: how reliable is the service? Ability of an IT component to perform at an agreed level at described conditions.
Maintainability: The ability of an IT Component to remain in, or be restored to an operational state.
Serviceability: The ability for an external supplier to maintain the availability of component or function under a third party contract.
Resilience: A measure of freedom from operational failure and a method of keeping services reliable. One popular method of resilience is redundancy.
Security: A service may have associated data. Security refers to the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of that data. Availability gives us the clear overview of the end to -end availability of the system

[edit] Financial Management for IT Services
Main article: Financial Management

[edit] Planning to implement service management
Main article: ITIL Planning to implement service management
The ITIL discipline – Planning To Implement Service Management [11] attempts to provide practitioners with a framework for the alignment of business needs and IT provision requirements. The processes and approaches incorporated within the guidelines suggest the development of a Continuous Service Improvement Programme (CSIP) as the basis for implementing other ITIL disciplines as projects within a controlled programme of work. Planning To Implement Service Management is mainly focused on the Service Management processes, but is also generically applicable to other ITIL disciplines.

create vision
analyze organization
set goals
implement IT service management

[edit] Security Management
Main article: ITIL Security Management
The ITIL-process Security Management [12] describes the structured fitting of information security in the management organization. ITIL Security Management is based on the code of practice for information security management also known as ISO/IEC 17799.

A basic concept of the Security Management is the information security. The primary goal of information security is to guarantee safety of the information. Safety is to be protected against risks. Security is the means to be safe against risks. When protecting information it is the value of the information that has to be protected. These values are stipulated by the confidentiality, integrity and availability. Inferred aspects are privacy, anonymity and verifiability.

The current move towards ISO/IEC 27001 may require some revision to the ITIL Security Management best practices which are often claimed to be rich in content for physical security but weak in areas such as software/application security and logical security in the ICT infrastructure.
[edit] ICT Infrastructure Management
ICT Infrastructure Management [13] processes recommend best practice for requirements analysis, planning, design, deployment and ongoing operations management and technical support of an ICT Infrastructure. (”ICT” is an acronym for “Information and Communication Technology”.)

The Infrastructure Management processes describe those processes within ITIL that directly relate to the ICT equipment and software that is involved in providing ICT services to customers.

ICT Design and Planning
ICT Deployment
ICT Operations
ICT Technical Support
These disciplines are less well understood than those of Service Management and therefore often some of their content is believed to be covered ‘by implication’ in Service Management disciplines.
[edit] ICT Design and Planning
ICT Design and Planning provides a framework and approach for the Strategic and Technical Design and Planning of ICT infrastructures. It includes the necessary combination of Business (and overall IS) strategy, with technical design and architecture. ICT Design and Planning drives both the Procurement of new ICT solutions through the production of Statements of Requirement (”SOR”) and Invitations to Tender (”ITT”) and is responsible for the initiation and management of ICT Programmes for strategic business change. Key Outputs from Design and Planning are:

ICT Strategies, Policies and Plans
The ICT Overall Architecture & Management Architecture
Business Cases, Feasibility Studies, ITTs and SORs

[edit] ICT Deployment Management
ICT Deployment provides a framework for the successful management of design, build, test and roll-out (deploy) projects within an overall ICT programme. It includes many project management disciplines in common with PRINCE2, but has a broader focus to include the necessary integration of Release Management and both functional and non functional testing.
[edit] ICT Operations Management
ICT Operations Management provides the day-to-day technical supervision of the ICT infrastructure. Often confused with the role of Incident Management from Service Support, Operations is more technical and is concerned not solely with Incidents reported by users, but with Events generated by or recorded by the Infrastructure. ICT Operations may often work closely alongside Incident Management and the Service Desk, which are not-necessarily technical in order to provide an ‘Operations Bridge’. Operations, however should primarily work from documented processes and procedures and should be concerned with a number of specific sub-processes, such as: Output Management, Job Scheduling, Backup and Restore, Network Monitoring/Management, System Monitoring/Management, Database Monitoring/Management Storage Monitoring/Management. Operations are responsible for:

A stable, secure ICT infrastructure
A current, up to date Operational Documentation Library (”ODL”)
A log of all operational Events
Maintenance of operational monitoring and management tools.
Operational Scripts
Operational Procedures

[edit] ICT Technical Support
ICT Technical Support is the specialist technical function for infrastructure within ICT. Primarily as a support to other processes, both in Infrastructure Management and Service Management, Technical Support provides a number of specialist functions: Research and Evaluation, Market Intelligence (particularly for Design and Planning and Capacity Management), Proof of Concept and Pilot engineering, specialist technical expertise (particularly to Operations and Problem Management), creation of documentation (perhaps for the Operational Documentation Library or Known Error Database).
[edit] The Business Perspective
The Business Perspective is the name given to the collection of best practices[14] that is suggested to address some of the issues often encountered in understanding and improving IT service provision, as a part of the entire business requirement for high IS quality management. These issues are:

Business Continuity Management describes the responsibilities and opportunities available to the business manager to improve what is, in most organizations one of the key contributing services to business efficiency and effectiveness.
Surviving Change. IT infrastructure changes can impact the manner in which business is conducted or the continuity of business operations. It is important that business managers take notice of these changes and ensure that steps are taken to safeguard the business from adverse side effects.
Transformation of business practice through radical change helps to control IT and to integrate it with the business.
Partnerships and outsourcing
This volume is related to the topics of IT Governance and IT Portfolio Management.
[edit] Application Management
ITIL Application Management[15] set encompasses a set of best practices proposed to improve the overall quality of IT software development and support through the life-cycle of software development projects, with particular attention to gathering and defining requirements that meet business objectives.

This volume is related to the topics of Software Engineering and IT Portfolio Management.
[edit] Small-Scale Implementation
ITIL Small-Scale Implementation [16] provides an approach to the implementation of the ITIL framework for those with smaller IT units or departments. It is primarily an auxiliary work, covering many of the same best practice guidelines as Planning To Implement Service Management, Service Support and Service Delivery but provides additional guidance on the combination of roles and responsibilities and avoiding conflict between ITIL priorities.
[edit] Criticisms of ITIL
ITIL has been criticized on several fronts, including:

The books are not affordable for non-commercial users
Accusations that many ITIL advocates think ITIL is “a holistic, all-encompassing framework for IT governance”;
Accusations that proponents of ITIL indoctrinate the methodology with ‘religious zeal’ at the expense of pragmatism.
As Jan van Bon (author and editor of many IT Service Management publications) notes,

There is a lot of confusion about ITIL, stemming from all kinds of misunderstandings about its nature. ITIL is, as the OGC states, a set of best practices. The OGC doesn�t claim that ITIL�s best practices describe pure processes. The OGC also doesn�t claim that ITIL is a framework, designed as one coherent model. That is what most of its users make of it, probably because they have such a great need for such a model…[17]
CIO Magazine columnist Dean Meyer has also presented some cautionary views of ITIL,[18] including five pitfalls such as “becoming a slave to outdated definitions” and “Letting ITIL become religion.” As he notes, “…it doesn’t describe the complete range of processes needed to be world class. It’s focused on … managing ongoing services.”

The quality of the library’s volumes is seen to be uneven. For example, van Herwaarden and Grift note, �the consistency that characterized the service support processes � is largely missing in the service delivery books.”[19]

In a 2004 survey designed by Noel Bruton (author of ‘How to Manage the IT Helpdesk’ and ‘Managing the IT Services Process’), ITIL adopting organizations were asked to relate their actual experiences in having implemented ITIL. Seventy-seven percent of survey respondents either agreed or strongly agreed that “ITIL does not have all the answers”. ITIL exponents accept this, citing ITIL’s stated intention to be non-prescriptive, expecting that organizations will have to engage ITIL processes with their existing overall process model. Bruton notes that the claim to non-prescriptiveness must be at best one of scale rather than absolute intention, for the very description of a certain set of processes is in itself a form of prescription. (Survey “The ITIL Experience – Has It Been Worth It”, author Bruton Consultancy 2004, published by Helpdesk Institute Europe, The Helpdesk and IT Support Show and Hornbill Software.)

The BOFH notes that ITIL manuals are like kryptonite to enthusiasm.” [20]

QUESTION 1
You develop a Windows-Based application that accesses a Microsoft SQL Server
database named Certkiller 1. Users must supply a user name and password when
they start the application. This information is then used to dynamically build a
connection string.
When you test the application, you discover that it is not using the SqlClient
connection pooling feature.
You must reduce the time needed to retrieve information.
How should you modify the connection string?
A. to use the Windows user logon when connection to the Certkiller 1 database.
B. to use the SQL Server used login when connection to the Certkiller 1 database.
C. to use the same application logon ID and password for every connection to the
Certkiller 1 database.
D. to use the guest login ID and password for every connection to the Certkiller 1
database.
Answer: C
Explanation: We must use the same connection string to only use one connection
pool.
Note: The performance of the application can be enhanced by having the application
share, or “pool,” connections to the data source. When a connection is opened, a
connection pool is created based on an exact matching algorithm that associates the pool
with the connection string in the connection. Each connection pool is associated with a

Actualtests.org – The Power of Knowing
distinct connection string. When a new connection is opened, if the connection string is
not an exact match to an existing pool, a new pool is created.
Reference:
.NET Framework Developer’s Guide, Connection Pooling for the SQL Server .NET Data
Provider
Visual Basic and Visual C# Concepts, Introduction to ADO.NET Connection Design
Tools
Incorrect Answers
A, C: If we use different connection strings for different users we would not be using the
same connection pool.
D: Using the guest login ID is not good out of security reasons.
QUESTION 2
You use Visual Studio .NET to create an application that interact with a Microsoft
SQL Server database. You create a SQL Server stored procedure named
CertK OrderDetails and save it in the database. Other developers on your team
frequently debug other stored procedures.
You need to verify that your stored procedure is performed correctly. You need to
step through CustOrderDetails inside the Visual Studio .NET debugger.
What should you do?
A. Run CertK OrderDetails by using the Visual Studio .NET Server Explorer.
B. Step into CertK OrderDetails by using the Visual Studio .NET Server Explorer.
C. From the Command window, use Ctrl+E to run CertK OrderDetails.
D. Move CertK OrderDetails from the Visual Studio .NET Server Explorer window to a
Windows Form.
Run the application in Debug mode and step though CertK OrderDetails.
Answer: B
Explanation:
To debug a stored procedure from Server Explorer
1. Establish a connection to a database using Server Explorer.
2. Expand the database name node.
3. Expand the Stored Procedures node.
4. Right-click the stored procedure you want to debug and choose Step Into Stored
Procedure from the shortcut menu.
Reference: Visual Studio, Debugging SQL Stored Procedures
QUESTION 3
You responsible for maintaining an application that was written by a former
colleague at Certkiller . The application reads from and writes to log files located on
the local network. The original author included the following debugging code to
facilitate maintenance:

Actualtests.org – The Power of Knowing
ry {
Debug.WriteLine(”Inside Try”);
throw(new IOException());}
catch (IOException e) {
Debug.WriteLine (”IOException Caught”);}
catch (Exception e) {
Debug.WriteLine(”Exception Caught”);}
finally {
Debug.WriteLine (”Inside Finally”);}
Debug.WriteLine (”After End Try”);
Which output is produced by thus code?
A. Inside Try
Exception Caught
IOException Caught
Inside Finally
After End Try
B. Inside Try
Exception Caught
Inside Finally
After End Try
C. Inside Try
IOException Caught
Inside Finally
After End Try
D. Inside Try
IOException Caught
Inside Finally
Answer: C
Explanation: First the try code runs. Then one single exception, the IOException
occurs, not two exceptions. Then the Finally code segments executes. After Finally
code bas been executed normal application resumes at the next line after the line
that called the error. In this case, the After End Try code runs.
Reference: 70-306/70-316 Training kit, Creating an Exception handler, page 235
Incorrect Answers
A: An exception can only be caught once, not twice. Furthermore, the more specific
exception is caught.
B: The most specific exception, IOException, is caught.
C: The code after finally will run after exception has occurred and the application
resumes after the next line after the line that called the error.

Excellent Resource
This is an excellent resource for preparing for the 222 exam. It is clear, concise, and very well written. I would also recommend supplimenting this resource with plenty of hands-on.

Jan 22, 2002 J Leeds from Atlanta GA
Believe it or not, a great training aid
Not only does this book cover the material on the exam thouroughly, it also does so in a way that really prepares you for the exam. Each chapter is structured as a case study, and each section of the chapter takes you through making decisions based on the case study. I was amazed that Microsoft Press actually had a good MCSE book available, but they do.

Dec 9, 2001 Zack B. from Los Angeles, CA
The Best MS press book I ‘ve ever read!!!
This book really worth the whole five stars. It is so different from the other books in that it contains a lot of case studies and questions. Also, I really believe that this book would be a good referance for exams 70-215 and 70-217

Dec 10, 2001 Tomas from Maryland
Content = 5 stars, Test prep = 2 stars
It’s an awesome book for general knowledge. It’s scope is way beyond the actual test (perhaps the test seemed narrow on focus because I did poorly– barely passed), but the book does not cover how to approach the more abstract, visual based questions.

I would use both this and other sources to study, because if you don’t know what Microsoft wants (it’s more than knowing what technologies are best applied in certain situations, but also extending to how to approach a confusing point-and-click question with not nearly half of the explanation you need to understand how two things are related).

For example, there are several questions interrelating abstract objects (laptop, vpn server, isp, etc..) via an even more abstract “relationship” (such as “Lan connection”, PPTP connection, etc..). Since the question is purposely abstract and confusing, I got stuck on the questions and no doubt got all of them wrong…. I didn’t understand it until after the test, but “relationship” means moreso which two objects have a common quality (such as a vpn connection between a laptop and a vpn server) rather than what quality one object uses with a second object ultimately for a third object (i.e., a laptop using a pptp connection THROUGH an ISP connection ULTIMATELY TO a vpn server). In this case, microsoft wants you to answer that the laptop and the vpn server are related via the vpn connection, and that the isp is not related at all to either of those via a “vpn connection” (in MY mind it WAS, since the vpn connection is physically going THROUGH the isp). Confusing. Hope this helps, though.

All in all, a really good book. I would definitely buy it, even if not taking the MS exam. It’s good enough for designing UNIX networks (just replace certain microsoft terms with the equivalent UNIX ones, such as “IIS” with “Apache”, “Active Directory” with “LDAP and Kerberos”, etc…).

I would recommend it for the exam, but PLEASE get a book that also talks about how to beat the exam (i.e., there are questions that are not multiple choice) and not just know the content.

Sep 11, 2001
Great Book
This is an outstanding book from MS. To the point, logical, clear, and regarding preparation for this exam, it is complete. A real pleasure to read.

Sep 8, 2001 Gareth from Toronto
Great…

QUESTION 1
DRAG DROP
You need to design a naming strategy for the new internal and external domains.
You need to identify the appropriate domain name for each domain. You need to
ensure that your solution meets the business and technical requirements of IT
Training Institute.
What should you do? (To answer, drag the appropriate name space to the correct
location or locations in the work area.)

Actualtest.org- The Power of Knowing
Answer:
Explanation: The Chief Information Officer indicates that: “We have to keep the
domain name ittraining.com for our external network. We don’t want to use more
domain names and we want keep our domains separate.”
Therefore, the domain name ittraining.com must be used for the external network as IT
Training Institute will not be registering a new domain name. To keep the domain
separate, a different domain name should be used for the internal network.
Reference:
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/WindowsServ/2003/all/deploy
guide/en-us/dssbc_logi_lcbx.asp
QUESTION 2
DRAG DROP
You need to design a strategy for the migration of the internal network to Windows
Server 2003. Your solution must meet the business and technical requirements of IT
Training Institute.
What should you do? (To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of
actions to the answer area and arrange them in the appropriate order. Use only
actions that apply.)

Actualtest.org- The Power of Knowing
Answer:
Explanation: A migration is accomplished by creating a new pristine Active
Directory on a new server. Then, you use a migration tool to copy the domain
information from your old domain to your new one. Here are some of the
advantages of this method:
1. Migration is gradual. You can migrate one department at a time.
2. Accounts are copied rather than moved, so you can return to the old domain if
necessary.
3. You avoid the complexity of taking existing database bugs and moving them into your
new Active Directory.
4. You can re-evaluate your existing domain structure and consolidate or expand your
domains, as you deem necessary.
Reference:
Michael Cross, Jeffery
A. Martin, and Todd
A. Walls: MCSE: Planning, Implementing,
and Maintaining a Windows Server 2003 Active Directory Infrastructure Study Guide &
DVD Training System, Syngress, Chapter 7, pp. 501.
QUESTION 3
You need to design the site topology for IT Training Institute’s internal domain.
You need to ensure that your solution meets the company’s business and technical
requirements.

Actualtest.org- The Power of Knowing
What should you do?
A. Create a site for each physical location and configure the default IP site link to only
allow replication between 9:00 P.M. and 3:00 A.M.
B. Set the replication interval on the default IP site link to 60 Minutes and configure the
default IP site link to only allow replication between 9:00 P.M. and 3:00 A.M.
C. Create a site for each physical location and configure the default IP site link to only
allow replication between 6:00 A.M. and 12:00 A.M.
D. Set the replication interval on the default IP site link to 30 Minutes and configure the
default IP site link to only allow replication between 6:00 A.M. and 12:00 A.M.
Answer: A
Explanation: The DFS object stores the DFS metadata for a domain-based
namespace. The DFS object is created in Active Directory when you create a
domain -based root, and Active Directory replicates the entire DFS object to all
domain controllers in a domain.
Incorrect Answers:
B: DFS is replicated with Active Directory; therefore you cannot set the replication
interval to every 60 minutes.
C: One of the goals in the case study says: “DFS replication must occur after hours.”
Therefore replication should not be allowed to occur up until 12:00 A.M. as this will be
well into the business day.
D: DFS is replicated with Active Directory; therefore you cannot set the replication
interval to every 30 minutes. Furthermore, replication should not be allowed to occur up
until 12:00 A.M. as this will be well into the business day.

Cisco Updates the CCSP Certification

2009-10-13T02:26:00.000-07:00

Business and industry needs are driving the evolution and development of the security solutions deployed in today’s networks. This in turn, is driving the demand for highly trained and skilled security professional s.
According to industry analysts, security spending remains a top priority in many organizations. IDC currently forecasts this market to reach $67 billion in 2010, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16 percent from 2005 to 2010. A recent Forrester Research survey also found, nearly one-third of IT leaders plan to hire security staff in 2007.
To ensure Cisco certification holders are current on the latest technology trends, Cisco has updated the CCSP certification and also introduced two new specialist certifications.
Changes to the security CCSP professional certification include updates to two of the five recommended training courses as well as, introducing two new exams and courses added as curriculum electives that can be used to satisfy the exam requirements for CCSP. These new elective exams and courses will cover Implementing Cisco NAC Appliances and Implementing Cisco Security Monitoring, Analysis and Response Systems.
The Cisco Network Admission Control Specialist and the Cisco IOS Security Specialist certifications are the newest of the security specialist certifications now available. These certifications are designed for the security technologist and will validate their skills in implementing and supporting these technologies.!
In addition, Cisco is updating the security specialization requirements for channel partners. Specifically the Field Engineer requirements are changing. Exam 642-567 ASFE will be retired, as well as the Cisco Advanced Security Field Specialization. Partner engineers pursuing CCSP, which is a requirement for the Field Engineer role, must now take two additional CCSP elective exams in place of 642-567 ASFE. For those currently studying, the last day to test 642-567 ASFE will be July 30, 2007. The channel requirements for Account Manager and System Engineer remain unchanged.
