    D. Run dism.exe and specify the /get-imageinfo parameter.

    Option: /Get-MountedImageInfo
    Lists the images that are currently mounted and information about the mounted image such as whether the image is valid, read/write permissions, mount location, mounted file path, and mounted image index.
    Example: Dism /Get-MountedImageInfo

    Option: /Get-ImageInfo
    Displays information about the images that are contained in the .wim, .vhd or .vhdx file. When used with the /Index or /Name argument, information about the specified image is displayed. The /Name argument does not apply to VHD files. You must specify /Index:1 for VHD files.
    Example:
    Dism /Get-ImageInfo /ImageFile:C:\test\offline\install.wim
    Dism /Get-ImageInfo /ImageFile:C:\test\images\myimage.vhd /Index:1

    This one’s tricky. Notice the question refers to the file being on installation media? The WIM file is on a DVD; that means it can’t be mounted. So the answer is actually D.

      The answer is still A.
      They ask the “You need to identify the PERMISSIONS of the MOUNTED images in Install.wim.”
      This is exactly what A. does. If no disk is mounted (which according to you is impossible) you don’t need to know the permissions either…

        I’m guessing this is because the images that are mounted inside the wim. The .WIM file itself can’t be mounted, and I think that’s what this refers to. It doesn’t help that they seem to use “mount” somewhat vaguely – for instance, you can mount an image inside a .vhdx, and then unmount the .vhdx.

        All I know is that the two practice exams and one other website I have all show D as the correct answer.

        This link also seems to indicate that the /get-imageinfo command is to be used to give you information to mount the images, while the other one is to be used after you’ve already mounted one.

    Answer is: A

    Installation media can refer to a DVD or USB flash drive.
    I don’t think this is a trick question.
    If you download the “media creation tool” from Microsoft you can choose USB,DVD or ISO.

    Even if this is a DVD then it’s still possible to mount the install.wim but only with the /ReadOnly option.
    Ofcourse if you already know that the it’s mounted this way you don’t have to check it to be certain. However as long as you don’t dismount and you want to check on a later date or someone else doesn’t know what you did then you could use the /Get-MountedWimInfo to check the permissions but you can also use the /Get-MountedImageInfo with Windows 2012 R2.

    I just think this question contains mixed answers from the “Server 2012” and “Server 2012 R2” exams.

    /Get-MountedImageInfo
    Applies To: Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh825079.aspx

    Get-MountedWimInfo
    Applies To: Windows 7
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd744382%28v=ws.10%29.aspx

    According to the documentation I would go for “Get-MountedImageInfo” just because they specifically mention that it applies to Server 2012 (R2) although both commands work. In the real exam they probably just have 1 option to choose from.

    Test lab:
    Mounted the Install.wim from a DVD so it’s possible but it has to be read-only:
    PS C:\Windows\system32> dism /Get-MountedWimInfo

    Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
    Version: 6.3.9600.17031

    Mounted images:
    Mount Dir : c:\mount
    Image File : D:\sources\install.wim
    Image Index : 1
    Mounted Read/Write : No
    Status : Ok

    Mount Dir : c:\Mount2
    Image File : D:\sources\install.wim
    Image Index : 3
    Mounted Read/Write : No
    Status : Ok
    The operation completed successfully.
