Case Study: 2
NorthwindTraders
Overview
Northwind Traders is a retail company.
The company has offices in North America, Europe, and Asia.
The company plans to implement a private cloud solution that uses System Center 2012 R2.
Existing Environment
Network Infrastructure
Northwind Traders has a single data center that contains an internal network and a perimeter
network. The networks are separated by a firewall. The relevant portion of the network is
shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibit button.)

The networks contain the network devices shown in the following table.

The network contains an Active Directory forest named northwindtraders.com. The forest
contains servers that run either Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012, or
Windows Server 2008 R2.
Northwind Traders uses Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) to deploy updates to all
of the servers in the data center. WSUS is installed on a server named NWT-WSUS01.
The network contains as the servers shown in the following table.

Virtualization Infrastructure
Northwind Traders has Hyper-V hosts that run either Windows Server 2012 R2 or Windows
Server 2012. The Hyper-V hosts contain virtual machines that are used on the network.
The current System Center 2012 infrastructure does not use any cloud settings in VMM.
Application Infrastructure
Northwind Traders develops several web applications by using the Microsoft .NET
Framework. The company also hosts a third-party UNIX-based web application on the
perimeter network.
Planned Implementation
Network Infrastructure
Northwind Traders plans to upgrade all physical servers to Windows Server 2012 R2.
Northwind Traders also plans to upgrade all of the System Center 2012 components to
System Center 2012 R2 and to deploy all of the System Center components that are not
deployed already.
The company plans to deploy the new System Center 2012 R2 servers shown in the following
table.

NWT-SCOM2 will be deployed to the perimeter network
Virtualization Infrastructure
After the planned deployment of System Center 2012 R2, Northwind Traders plans to move
all virtual machines to four new private clouds named IT, Sales, Finance, and Corporate.
Northwind Traders also plans to virtualize all of the servers that run SharePoint Server 2013.
Northwind Traders plans to provide a runbook-based solution for application developers to
create virtual machines in a test environment.
Northwind Traders also plans to implement a chargeback solution for the virtual machines
used by the IT, Sales, and Finance departments.
Monitoring Solution
After the planned deployment of System Center 2012 R2, Northwind Traders plans to
implement the following monitoring solutions:
• Generate reports that provide details about the virtual machines, the storage
pools, and the network devices used in the private clouds.
• Monitor the availability, CPU usage, and memory usage of all the network
devices in the data center.
• Monitor the performance of all the SharePoint servers by using a single
dashboard.
Updates Solution
After the planned deployment of System Center 2012 R2, Northwind Traders plans to
manage updates from System Center 2012 R2 and to integrate the existing WSUS server into
the System Center 2012 R2 infrastructure.

DRAG DROP
You need to prepare the infrastructure to meet the software update requirement.
Which three actions should you perform in sequence? To answer, move the appropriate actions
from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.

Answer:

Explanation:
“WSUS is installed on a server named NWT-WSUS01” , so the software update point should be
installed on it:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg712312.aspx – Configuring Software Updates in
Configuration Manager The software update point is required on the central administration site and
on the primary sites in order to enable software updates compliance assessment and to deploy
software updates to clients. The software update point is optional on secondary sites. The software
update point site system role must be created on a server that has WSUS installed. The software
update point interacts with the WSUS services So the vce answer is wrong because the 2nd answer
mentions to install software update point on server NWTSCCM01
The link also confirms it:
See http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh237372.aspx
“You must install a software update point on the WSUS server to be able to deploy software updates
in Configuration Manager.”
