You are an Enterprise administrator for contoso.com. The corporate network of the company consists of a single Active Directory domain. All the domain controllers in the domain run Windows Server 2008 and all client computers run Windows Vista.
You have been assigned the task to implement a backup and recovery plan that restores the domain controllers and the client computers in the event of a catastrophic server failure.
Besides recovering the domain controller, you also want a provision to restore items from client computers by choosing a backup and then selecting specific items from that backup to restore. You want to restore an item by choosing the date of the backup version for the item you want to restore. You want make sure that the backup is not taken on an optical drive.
Which of the following options would you choose to accomplish the desired goal? (Select two. Each correct answer will present a part of the solution.)
A.
Use Windows Server Backup to back up each domain controller and the client computers to a local disk.
B.
Use Ntbackup.exe tool to back up each domain controller and the client computers to a local disk.
C.
Use Windows Server Backup to back up each domain controller to a remote network share.
D.
Create a Windows Recovery Environment (Windows RE) partition on each domain controller.
E.
Use Windows Deployment Services (WDS) to deploy the Windows Recovery Environment (Windows RE).
Explanation:
To implement a backup and recovery plan that restores the domain controllers and the client computers in the event of a catastrophic server failure, you need to use Windows Server Backup to back up each domain controller to a remote network share. You can use Windows Server Backup to back up a full server (all volumes), selected volumes, or the system state.
You can restore items by choosing a backup and then selecting specific items from that backup to restore. You can recover specific files from a folder or all the contents of a folder. In addition, previously, you needed to manually restore from multiple backups if
choose the date of the backup version for the item you want to restore
In case of disasters like hard disk failures or catastrophic server failure you can perform a system recovery, which will restore your complete system onto the new hard disk, by using a full server backup and the Windows Recovery Environment.
You need to use Windows Deployment Services (WDS) to deploy the Windows Recovery Environment (Windows RE). Windows Deployment Services enables you to deploy Windows operating systems by using a network-based installation. This means that you do not have to install each operating system directly from a CD or DVD. Therefore, you can avoid the use of optical drive for backup.
