Unit 1: Assignment 1: Installing Server Roles with a Batch File
Questions:
1. What does the /w switch do? Why is it used? o The /W switch is used with all products installing with SCCM/SMS so it doesn't do anything product specific. The W switch tells the machine to wait and let the first install finish before it tries to start the second install, that it.
2. What switch is used to remove a role?
Remove-ManagementRole cmdlet to remove custom management roles that you don't need anymore.
3. What is the command to start the DHCP Server service?
o Start, stop, and restart commands affect the daemon only at the current session. For example, if you stop the DHCP service, the daemon terminates but restarts when you reboot the system. DHCP data tables are not affected when you stop the service.
o Enable and disable commands affect the daemon for current and future sessions. If you disable the DHCP service, the currently running daemon terminates and does not start when you reboot the server. You must enable the DHCP daemon for the automatic start at system boot to occur. DHCP data tables are not affected. You can disable and enable the DHCP service only from DHCP Manager.
o Unconfigure command shuts down the daemon, prevents the daemon from starting on system reboot, and enables you to remove the DHCP data tables. Unconfiguration is described in Chapter 3, Configuring DHCP Service.
4. What command is used to configure a DNS zone?
You can use these procedures to configure a new Domain Name System (DNS) server with either the Windows graphical user interface (GUI) or the dnscmd command-line tool.
Lab 1.2: Preparing an Application Server
1. Which computer is hosting the administrator account that you specified in this authentication? o the VMlocal comp – NT2670srv99A
2. Why is the system prompting you to initialize Disk 1 at this time? o because its offline
3. What happens to disk 1 type and status when initialization is
