You are an Enterprise administrator for contoso.com. The corporate network of the company consists of a single Active Directory domain. The network contains three servers that run Windows Server 2000 and a few custom applications.
The applications on these servers are incompatible with each other, incompatible with Windows Server 2008, and consume less than 10 percent of the system resources. The company has decided to update all the servers to Windows Server 2008.
As an Enterprise administrator of the company, you have been assigned the task to migrate the applications to new Windows Server 2008 servers in minimum hardware costs.
Which of the following two options would you choose to accomplish the assigned task? (Select two. Each selected option will present a part of the answer.)
A.
Deploy one new server that runs Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Edition.
B.
Deploy three new servers that run Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition.
C.
Deploy one new server that runs Windows Server 2008 Datacenter Edition.
D.
Install the Windows System Resource Manager (WSRM) feature on the new server.
E.
Configure Windows 2000 compatibility mode for each application.
F.
Install the Hyper-V feature on the new server. Create three child virtual machines.
G.
Install the Desktop Experience feature.
Explanation:
To migrate the applications to new Windows Server 2008 servers in minimum hardware costs, you need to deploy one new server that runs Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Edition, install the Hyper-V feature on the new server, and then create three child virtual machines for each application.
Application virtualization of Hyper-V feature helps isolate the application running environment from the operating system install requirements by creating application-specific copies of all shared resources and helps reduce application to application incompatibility and testing needs.
With Microsoft SoftGrid, desktop and network users can also reduce application installation time and eliminate potential conflicts between applications by giving each application a virtual environment that’s not quite as extensive as an entire virtual machine. By providing an abstracted view of key parts of the system, application virtualization reduces the time and expense required to deploy and update applications.

Hyper-V runs on 2008 R2 Standard, so shouldn’t the answer be B and F instead of A and F?

No, Standard edition only runs one physical and one hyper-v child.
With enterprise you can run up to 4 Hyper-V virtual machines
