Testlet 1
Overview
Northwind Traders is a retail company that has three offices. The offices are located in New York, Montreal,
and Miami.
In the data center of the New York office, the company plans to implement a private cloud solution that will use
System Center 2012 R2.
Existing Environment
Network Infrastructure
The network contains two Active Directory forests named northwindtraders.com and contoso.com.
The northwindtraders.com forest contains servers that run either Windows Server 2012 R2 or Windows Server
2012. The northwindtraders.com forest contains all of the computers in the New York office and the Montreal
office.
The contoso.com forest contains all of the computers in the Miami office. A trust relationship does not exist
between the forests.
Server Environment
The data center of the Montreal office contains three servers. The servers are configured as shown in the
following table.

The data center of the New York office contains seven servers. The servers are configured as shown in the
following table.

Service Pack 1 (SP1) for System Center 2012 is deployed to all of the System Center servers. All of the System
Center servers run Windows Server 2012.
Currently, VMM is used to deploy virtual machines to Hyper-V hosts.
Implementation Plans
Planned Upgrades
Northwind Traders plans to upgrade all physical servers to Windows Server 2012 R2 and all System Center
2012 components to System Center 2012 R2. Administrators also plan to add all of the System Center 2012 R2
components that are NOT deployed already.
Planned DevelopmentNorthwind Traders plans to deploy seven new servers to the New York data center. The servers will be
configured as shown in the following table.

All of the SQL Server servers will use the default instances.
Northwind Traders plans to move all of the virtual machines on the Hyper-V hosts to four new private clouds
named IT, Sales, Finance, and Corporate. The Hyper-V hosts in the IT private cloud will have their network
adapters configured by using logical switches.
After the planned implementation of System Center 2012 R2, the administrators plan to deploy the Service
Manager Self-Service Portal.
The administrators also plan to integrate System Center and Windows Azure.
The company’s developers recently developed an order management application that contains a web
application and a Windows service. The Windows service accesses a database. You use Server Application
Virtualization (Server App-V) packages to deploy the web application and the Windows service. You use a SQL
Server dedicated administrator connection (DAC) package to deploy the database.
Requirements
General Requirements
Northwind Traders plans to:
Reuse existing servers whenever possible.
Minimize the development of custom code.
Minimize the numbers of components for any solution.
Minimize the amount of permissions assigned to users.
Minimize the amount of administrative effort whenever possible.
System Center Requirements
Northwind Traders must meet the following requirements:
VMM must be able to use the storage on ST01 and ST02.
Users must be able to access the Service Manager Self-Service Portal.
The servers in the Miami office must be monitored by using Operations Manager.
The order management application must be deployed by using a service template.
Users of the Corporate private cloud must be able to copy their virtual machines to Windows Azure.
The Service Manager Self-Service Portal and the SharePoint Server 2010 infrastructure must be integrated.
The NIC teaming mode for network adapters must be the same on all of the Hyper-V hosts in the IT private
cloud.
The operational database and the data warehouse database used by Operations Manager must be on
separate servers.Each virtual machine created in the Sales private cloud must be limited to four virtual CPUs and eight GB of
memory.
The data collected from all of the monitored servers must reside in the same database in the
northwindtraders.com forest.

###EndCaseStudy###

You need to recommend network fabric configurations for the planned deployment of VMM.
What should you include in the recommendation?

A.
A virtual switch extension manager

B.
A Hyper-V port profile for virtual network adapters

C.
A port classification

D.
A Hyper-V port profile for uplinks

Explanation:
Note:
/The Hyper-V hosts in the IT private cloud will have their network adapters configured by using logical switches.
In Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) in System Center 2012 Service Pack 1 (SP1) or System Center 2012 R2,
you can consistently configure identical capabilities for network adapters across multiple hosts by using port
profiles and logical switches. Port profiles and logical switches act as containers for the properties or
capabilities that you want your network adapters to have. Instead of configuring individual properties or
capabilities for each network adapter, you can specify the capabilities in port profiles and logical switches,
which you can then apply to the appropriate adapters.
