70-413 Exam Server Deployment and Virtualization 1 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: Which Windows Server role enables network-based operating system deployment to bare-metal computers using PXE boot?
- WSUS
- Windows Deployment Services (WDS) (Correct answer)
- Microsoft Deployment Toolkit
- System Center VMM
Correct answer: Windows Deployment Services (WDS)
Windows Deployment Services (WDS) enables PXE-based network boot and remote OS deployment to bare-metal and diskless computers.
Question 2: Which lightweight file transfer protocol do WDS clients use to download boot files from the WDS server during a PXE network boot?
- TFTP (Correct answer)
- HTTP
- SMB
- FTP
Correct answer: TFTP
WDS clients use TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) to download the boot image because it works before a full network stack is available on the client.
Question 3: Which free Microsoft toolkit extends WDS by adding task sequences, application deployment, and driver management for zero-touch deployments?
- System Center Configuration Manager
- Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) (Correct answer)
- Windows System Image Manager (WSIM)
- DISM
Correct answer: Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT)
MDT (Microsoft Deployment Toolkit) provides task sequences, driver repositories, and application deployment capabilities on top of WDS for automated OS deployments.
Question 4: What WSUS feature allows update approvals to be targeted to specific subsets of computers independently?
- Update Categories
- Computer Groups (Correct answer)
- Synchronization Schedule
- Automatic Approval Rules
Correct answer: Computer Groups
WSUS Computer Groups let administrators control which updates are approved for different sets of computers, enabling staged rollouts and testing.
Question 5: Which Hyper-V feature transfers a running virtual machine to another physical host with zero downtime or service interruption?
- Quick Migration
- Live Migration (Correct answer)
- Storage Migration
- VM Export/Import
Correct answer: Live Migration
Hyper-V Live Migration moves a running VM's memory, storage, and network connections to another host seamlessly without interrupting guest workloads.
Question 6: Which WSUS downstream server mode causes the server to automatically mirror all update approvals and computer groups from its upstream WSUS server?
- Autonomous mode
- Replica mode (Correct answer)
- Mirror mode
- Cascaded mode
Correct answer: Replica mode
WSUS Replica mode synchronizes all approvals, settings, and computer groups from the upstream server, with no independent local management.
