Overview
Proseware, Inc. is an international publishing company.
Proseware has four data centers and 80 offices. The data centers are located in Dallas, Dublin, Bangalore, and
Sydney. The offices are located worldwide.
Existing Environment
Network Infrastructure
The network contains a single-domain Active Directory forest named proseware.com.
Each server has a Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) installed.
Database administrators in the Bangalore data center manage all of the SQL Server servers in the data
centers.
Dublin Data Center
The Dublin data center contains two servers. The servers are configured as shown in the following table.

Operations Manager 2007 R2 agents are installed on all of the servers in the Dublin data center by using the
push installation method.
App1
Proseware uses a critical business application named Appl. Multiple instances of App1 are deployed to each
data center.
Each instance of App1 consists of the following physical servers that run Windows Server 2012:
A database server that runs SQL Server 2008 R2.
Two web servers that are load balanced by using the Network Load Balancing (NLB) feature. Each web
server has a single network adapter.
New versions of App1 are released at least four times a year.
When a new version of App1 is released, all of the servers in App1 must be redeployed.
Requirements
Planned Changes
Proseware plans to deploy all System Center 2012 components.
Proseware plans to implement the following changes in each data center:
Deploy a SQL Server 2008 R2 Enterprise failover cluster.Store all virtual machine data in a Fibre Channel SAN infrastructure.
Deploy a highly available Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) environment.
Deploy one physical server that has Data Protection Manager (DPM) deployed.
Technical Requirements
Proseware identifies the following technical requirements for the implementation of a private cloud:
All Hyper-V hosts must be added to a failover cluster automatically.
The deployment of Hyper-V hosts to each data center must be automated.
The implementation of the DPM infrastructure must meet the following requirements:
– Backups will be stored on an iSCSI SAN.
– Virtual machines in a running state must be backed up from their respective host. Administrators must be
able to restore individual files from host backups on virtual machines configured as file servers.
The implementation of the Operations Manager 2012 infrastructure must meet the following requirements:
– Operations Manager monitoring must not be affected if a single server fails.
– Existing data must be retained in the Operations Manager 2012 infrastructure.
– Existing agents must continue to report to Operations Manager during the upgrade process.
– All Operations Manager agents must report to a local management server in their respective data center.
– The service desk in the Dublin data center must be able to view the status of the servers in all of the data
centers.
Administrative Requirements
Proseware identifies the following administrative requirements:
An administrator must be notified when an error occurs on a server.
An administrator must be able to assign errors to specific administrators for resolution.
Errors that remain unresolved for more than 10 hours must be escalated automatically to another
administrator.
Planned Virtual Machines
The servers in each instance of App1 will be replaced with a set of virtual machines. The planned changes
must meet the following requirements:
Each instance must be redeployed when a new version of App1 is released.
Each instance of App1 must be installed by using the minimum amount of administrative effort.
App2
An application named App2 is hosted on the virtual machines in a Windows Azure public cloud infrastructure.
The performance and availability of the components of App2 must be monitored centrally. Administrators must
be able to modify the configurations of the App2 components.
App3
A service template will be used to deploy multiple instances of a multi-tier application named App3. The vendor
of App3 will provide updates to App3 every two months.
SQL Server Deployment Requirements
VMM administrators plan to deploy many virtual machines that have SQL Server deployed. The administrators
identify the following deployment options for the virtual machines:
The virtual machines will host databases that will be created by using data-tier application (DAC) packages.
The virtual machines will have SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard deployed by using one of six different
configurations.
The operating system for the virtual machines will be either Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise or
Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard.

DRAG DROP
You need to recommend a method to upgrade DublinMG to Operations Manager 2012.
Which three actions should you perform in sequence? (To answer, move the appropriate three actions from the
list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.)
Select and Place:

Answer:

Explanation:
Note:
DublinOM1 is an x86 server so we can’t upgrade it to SCOM 2012. So we need to deploy a secondary server
(x64)
You upgrade your System Center Operations Manager 2007 R2 management group to System Center 2012 –
Operations Manager from a secondary management server when the computer hosting the Operations
Manager 2007 R2 root management server (RMS) does not meet the minimum supported configurations for
System Center 2012 – Operations Manager. You must first move the agents over to the secondary
management server and gateway servers.
