Background
General Background
You are a SharePoint administrator for a media distribution company named Proseware, Inc. Proseware
is in the process of upgrading from SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint 2013. The IT group has deployed a
new SharePoint 2013 farm. The farm is not yet fully configured.
You are supporting the product development group during the planning and configuration of the new
SharePoint farm. The product development group includes the research, development, and marketing
teams. The product development group has multiple team sites and project collaborations sites in the
current SharePoint 2010 farm.
Business Background
Stakeholders have identified the following initiatives:
ProseWeb, a public website that will allow anonymous visitors
to browse the company’s product catalog.
PartnerWeb, a public website that will allow authenticated
users from partner companies to collaborate on product materials.
ProductsKB, a centralized repository where teams can publish
product-related documents, images, videos, and other information
related to the company’s product catalog. Information in this site will be
consumed by the ProseWeb site.
Technical Background
The company has an Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) domain named proseware.com. All
servers and user accounts are members of the domain. The company has purchased the prosewareapps.com domain to support SharePoint apps.
The SharePoint 2013 farm currently has the following configuration: The farm includes seven SharePoint servers named SPWEB1,
SPWEB2, SPWEB3, SPWEB4, SPADM1, SPAPP1, and SPAPP2.
SPWEB1, SPWEB2, SPWEB3, SPWEB4 and SPADM1 are
configured as front-end web servers.
SPADM1 is dedicated for administration purposes.
Windows Network Load Balancing has been configured to load
balance all host names across the front-end web servers.
Central Administration has been provisioned on SPWEB4 and
SPADM1.
The farm includes two database servers named SQL1 and SQL2
that run Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Enterprise.
Wildcard certificates for *.proseware.com and *.prosewareapps.com have been installed on all SharePoint servers.
Five web applications have been created:
o ProseWeb – https://www.proseware.com
o PartnerWeb – https://partners.proseware.com
o ProductsKB – https://kb.proseware.com
o Teams – https://teams.proseware.com
o Apps – https://proseware-apps.com
The SharePoint development team has created a custom web
template solution package named ProseWebTemplate.WSP for
provisioning the ProseWeb site collection. The package includes a
custom template named ProseWeb.
An instance of a managed metadata service application has
been configured with a content type hub. Two enterprise content types
named Product Document and Product Image have been published in
the content type hub and are available across all web applications and
sites.
All team collaboration site collections for the product
development group are contained in a single content database named
sp_content_teams_productdev. The database has been restored on
SQL1, and upgraded by using the database attach method on the Teams
web application. The site collections have not been ungraded.
All team collaboration site collections for the product
development group are referenced under a wildcard managed path at
https://teams.proseware.com/productdev.
The product development marketing team collaboration site is
located at https:// teams.proseware.com/productdev/marketing.
The marketing team has made significant customizations to
their team collaboration site by using Microsoft SharePoint Designer.Business Requirements
The SharePoint 2013 environment must meet the following business requirements:
Due to export and copyright restrictions, SharePoint sites may
be accessed only from within North America.
The ProseWeb site must display a fixed-width page design for
desktop browsers, and a single responsive web design for all mobile
devices. The company’s web designers have prepared two site
templates that meet these requirements.
To support the website design layouts, images on the website
must be rendered in one of three standard sizes, specified in pixels:
Thumbnail (150 x 150), Catalog (300 x 300), and Detail (500 x 500).
Users must be able to easily copy product-related documents,
images, and other files from any team collaboration site to the
ProductsKB site. Metadata on content must be preserved when moving
or copying content between sites.

collections must be upgraded.
Technical Requirements
You have the following technical requirements:
SQL Server connections must use TCP and port 1488.
Site collection upgrades must be throttled for no more than 20
concurrent upgrades within any content database, and throttled at 10
concurrent upgrades for any web application instance.
If a site collection has been customized by using SharePoint
Designer:
o The site collection upgrade must be performed by a farm
administrator.
o All customizations must be evaluated and verified before
performing the upgrade.
All sandboxed solution code must run on the same server as the
original request.
Requests originating from outside the company network must
not be routed to any server running Central Administration.
SPAPP1 and SPAPP2 must not process user requests for site
content and pages.
