Exercise 3.1 Deploying the General Use File Server Role Overview To demonstrate using a failover cluster in this exercise, create a General Use File Server using the cluster that was created in Lab2, along with a shared iSCSI drive. Completion time 25 minutes

Mindset Question: What are the advantages of a General Use File Server over a Scale- Out File Server? MOAC 70-412: Configuring Advanced Windows Server 2012 Services

Exercise 3.3 Configure Fail-over and Preference Settings Overview During this exercise, you will configure how the failover cluster will respond to failover and how it recovers from failover.

What is the maximum failures in the specified period, and what is the period: Question 2

Is the cluster allowed to failback to a preferred owner, if the preferred owner is restored? Question 3

Exercise 3.4 Managing the Cluster Overview During this exercise, you will manage the cluster and cluster nodes.

Which is the current host server? Question 4

Question Which is the current destination node? 5 MOAC 70-412: Configuring Advanced Windows Server 2012 Services

Which is the owner for the FileServer role? Question 7

Which is the owner for the FileServer role after Server02 comes back? Question 8

Lab Challenge Configuring VM Monitoring Overview To complete this challenge, you will describe how to configure monitoring of a failover cluster that is running within Hyper-V.

Completion time 5 minutes You have created a failover using two VMs on a host running Hyper-V. How would you configure monitoring of the failover cluster?
