QUESTION 1:
You are the SMS administrator for Alecnet .com. Alecnet uses Active Directory
System Discovery when configuring SMS to discover computers. The
Organizational Unit (OU) structure is shown in the following exhibit
You need to configure Active Directory System Discovery to discover the computers
in the IT Department OU, but not the Help Desk OU.
Which two actions should you perform? (Each correct answer presents part of the
solution. Choose two.)
A. Ensure that the Recursive search option is selected.
B. Query the local domain location.
C. Query the local forest location.
D. Ensure that the Recursive search option is not selected.
E. Create a custom LDAP or GC query that points to the IT Department OU.
Answer: D, E
Explanation:
All AD based discovery methods give you a great deal of control over
what they evaluate, and you can use this to your advantage. Utilizing the custom
LDAP or GC query option, you can restrict a site to discovery only on objects
relative to it.
A custom LDAP query in this case would look like this:
LDAP://OU=ALL_COMPUTERS,OU=IT DEPARTMENT,DC= Alecnet ,DC=COM.
After you specify which Active Directory containers to scan, you specify whether to scan
recursively. Recursive scanning finds objects that are stored in the Active Directory
containers that you specify, and it finds any subcontainers. By default, all containers are

scanned recursively. You can toggle the recursive scanning of containers by selecting the
container and then clicking the Recursive button.
QUESTION 2:
You are the SMS administrator for Alecnet .com. The Hardware Inventory Client
Agent is enabled with the default configuration settings.
You need to ensure that the Hardware Inventory Client Agent is run every Tuesday
at 19:00.
What should you do?
A. Configure the Hardware Inventory Client Agent to use a Full schedule.
B. Add an IDMIF file to each client that sets the new schedule.
C. Configure the Hardware Inventory Client Agent to use a Simple schedule.
D. Change the SMS_def.mof to comply with the new schedule.
Answer: A
Explanation:
You can't use a simple schedule because a simple schedule will only allow you to set
it to run every xdays, whilea full schedule will allow you to set a schedule indicating
what day and time. IDMIF files are used to create entire new architectures in the
SMS site database, or to update existing architectures. They can also be used to add
stand-alone computers to the SMS site database. IDMIF files are also frequently
used to inventory non-system items. Systems Management Server (SMS) uses the
Sms_def.mof file to specify which hardware classes and attributes are collected and
reported for hardware inventory.
QUESTION 3:
You are the SMS administrator for Alecnet .com. Your network consists of a single
Active Directory domain. The network contains a Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 SP3
computer. The SMS site server runs Microsoft Windows 2000 Server SP3. The SMS
site server is configured as a management point, client access point, server locator
point, and reporting point.
You want to use a server that runs Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0 SP4 as a
distribution point.
The SMS site currently uses the standard security mode.
You need to migrate from the standard security mode to the advanced security
mode. You want to achieve this goal by using the least amount of administrative
effort.
Which two actions should you perform? (Each correct answer presents part of the
solution. Choose two.)
A. Upgrade the computer you want to configure as a distribution point to Windows NT
Server 4.0 SP6.

B. Upgrade the computer you want to configure as a distribution point to Windows 2000
Server SP3.
C. Upgrade the SQL Server computer to SQL Server 2000 SP3a.
D. Upgrade the SMS site server to Windows Server 2003.
E. Extend the Active Directory schema.
Answer: B, C
Explanation:
For an SMS 2003 site to use advanced security, the SMS site server and all SMS site
systems must be running Windows 2000 SP1 or later, or an operating system in the
Windows Server 2003 family, in an Active Directory domain. It is not possible to use
an advanced security site in a Windows NT 4.0 domain. The SMS site database
servers must be running SQL Server 2000 or later. The SQL Servers must be in
Windows authentication mode only.
QUESTION 4:
You are the SMS administrator for Alecnet .com. All servers run Microsoft
Windows Server 2003. All desktop computers run Windows XP Professional. The
company has a single SMS 2.0 SP3 site. You plan to upgrade the SMS 2.0 site to
SMS 2003 SP1.
You need to test specific upgrade tasks before implementing SMS 2003 SP1 in the
production environment.
Which task should you avoid performing in a production environment?
A. installingInternet Information Services
B. upgrading to SMS 2.0 SP4
C. running the Deployment Readiness Wizard
D. runningSetup.exe /testdbupgrade SMS_
Answer: D
Explanation:
Running Setup with the /testdbupgrade switch is a destructive test.
Ensure that you use this option on a copy of your SMS site database only, not on
your production SMS site database. The /testdbupgrade switch is valid only when
run against a copy of the SMS site database where the SMS provider does not exist.
QUESTION 5:
You are the SMS administrator for Alecnet .com. The SMS 2003 site hierarchy
consists of a single primary site. The SMS site server is configured as a management
point, client access point, server locator point, and distribution point.
The hardware on the management point must be replaced. You need to transfer the
management point role to a different server. The only computer available for this

purpose runs Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0 SP4.
You need to prepare this computer to be a management point.
What should you do?
A. Install Windows 2000 Server SP3 and IIS.
B. Install Windows Server 2003 with the default settings.
C. Install SP6 for Windows NT Server 4.0 and IIS
D. Install Windows 2000 Server SP2.
Answer: A
Explanation:
System Management Server 2003 system requirements: Microsoft
Windows Server 2003 (Standard, Enterprise or Datacenter Edition) or Windows
2000 Server SP2 (Standard, Advanced or Datacenter Edition). Distribution points,
Management points and Reporting points also require that Internet Information
Services (IIS) is installed as part of the Windows Server installation.
QUESTION 6:
You are the SMS administrator for Alecnet .com. All servers run Microsoft
Windows Server 2003. All desktop computers run Microsoft Windows XP
Professional. The company has a single SMS site. The SMS Advanced Client is
installed on all computers on the network.
You need to inventory the network to discover only the following.
1. The version of Microsoft Word that is being used by each computer
2. A list of applications that is installed on each computer
3. The version of the definition file named Av.dat that is used by the antivirus
software
You need to modify the default settings for the SMS Software Inventory Client
Agent to collect this information. You need to achieve this goal by using the least
amount of administrative effort.
Which entry or entries should you add? (Choose all that apply.)
A. *.exe
B. Av.dat
C. Winword.exe
D. *.*
Answer: B
Explanation:
By default, *.exe is collected, which would by default collect version
for Winword.exe.A list of installed applications is created by the Hardware
Inventory Client Agent and presented in the Resource Explorer under Add/Remove

Programs. Any files with *.dat extension would need to be manually added to the
list of collected files for the Software Inventory Client Agent.
QUESTION 7:
You are the SMS administrator for Alecnet .com. All servers run Microsoft
Windows Server 2003. All desktop computers run Windows XP Professional.
You install SMS 2003 SP1. You configure the SMS site with advanced security. You
install the SMS Advanced Client on all computers.
You need to discover all SMS clients by using Network Discovery.
Which Network Discovery method will be unavailable?
A. DHCP
B. Domains
C. SNMP
D. SNMP Devices
E. Subnets
Answer: A
Explanation:
DHCP network discovery is disabled by default when the SMS site is
running advanced security. This is by design. Advanced security relies on using the
LocalSystem Account context to access server resources such as DHCP data.
However, DHCP data cannot be accessed by using the LocalSystem Account
security context. Therefore, DHCP network discovery is disabled in advanced
security mode.
QUESTION 8:
You are the SMS administrator for Alecnet .com. All domain controllers run
Microsoft Windows Server 2003. All desktop computers run Windows XP
Professional. You plan to install SMS 2003 SP1.
You need to instruct the Active Directory administrator how to prepare Active
Directory for SMS integration.
What instruction or instructions should you convey to the Active Directory
administrator? (Choose all that apply.)
A. Create the System Management container.
B. Create the SMS 2003 container.
C. Give appropriate rights to the System Management container.
D. Give appropriate rights to the SMS 2003 container.
E. Log on by using a user account that is a member of the Schema Admins group.
F. Run ExtADSchem.exe
Answer: A, C, E

Explanation:
System Management is the correct name for the AD container
containing SMS information, there is no need for a SMS 2003 container
ExtADSchem.exe does not exist, therefore extadsch.exe would be the correct
executable. However, it is not a choice, so the container needs to be created
manually (A) and to do this you have to be logged on with the correct credentials
and also assign the appropriate rights to the container after it has been created.
QUESTION 9:
You are the SMS administrator for Alecnet .com. All servers run Microsoft
Windows Server 2003. All desktop computers run Windows XP Professional.
You want to install the SMS Advanced Client on all computers on the network. You
use the Client Push Installation Wizard to install the SMS client software on the
computers.
You discover that some of the computers failed to install the SMS client.
You need to identify the cause of the problem.
Which three log files could you examine on both the SMS client and the SMS site
server? (Each correct answer presents a complete solution. Choose three.)
A. Ccm.log
B. Ccmsetup.log
C. Cidm.log
D. Client.msi.log
E. Ddm.log
F. Smsexec.log
Answer: A, B, D
Explanation:
Ccm.log (Server side): Search for computer name and make sure no errors are in this log
associated with the computer the client is being installed on. Seeing 'Unable to retrieve'
or 'could not retrieve' here is normal. This is when the server verified that the client is not
already installed.
Ccmsetup.log (client side): Logs when Management Point is identified, client.msi is
downloaded, when the installation starts and completes.
Client.msi.log (client side): Logs any errors during install. Search for "return value 3" to
find the actual error.
QUESTION 10:
You are the SMS administrator for Alecnet .com. All servers run Microsoft
Windows Server 2003. All desktop computers run Windows 98.
You plan to deploy the SMS client software to all desktop computers on the
network. You want to install the SMS client software based on the logon credentials.

You need to create a logon script that will automatically install the SMS client on all
desktop computers.
What are two possible ways to achieve this goal? (Each correct answer presents a
complete solution. Choose two.)
A. Configure the logon script to run Capinst.exe.
B. Configure the logon script to run CCMSetup.exe.
C. Configure the logon script to run Client.msi.
D. Configure the logon script to run Smsman.exe.
Answer: A, D
Explanation:
Capinst.exe is the recommended program to use in manual and logon
script installations. Capinst.exe supports both Legacy and Advanced client
installations. By default the Legacy client is deployed, use /advcli to install the
Advanced client.
Smsman.exe is used to install Legacy Clients by connecting to the CAP using a UNC
path. If you want users to run it from other locations, such as domain controllers, you
must copy it to those locations and specify the CAP using the SMSman.exe
command-line switch SMSman.exe /M <\\<server>\CAP_<site code>>

Microsoft ActiveSync.
B. Create an advertisement to install the Device Client on the mobile devices.
C. Use Client Push Installation to install the Device Client.
D. Use a Web site to make the Device Client installation available.

Answer: D
Explanation:
The Windows Mobile Device Management Client can be manually
installed or automatically deployed and configured using the SMS 2003 desktop
client. As the SMS 2003 desktop client is not an alternative the only correct answer
has to be a manual installation, in this case they are using a Web site for the
distribution of the installation files.
QUESTION 14:

Security Update Inventory Tool for patch management.
A new critical update for IIS is released. You want to quickly identify which Web
servers require the update and then apply the update.
You need to create an advertisement to install the new update.
What should you do?
To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area
and arrange them in the correct order.
Answer:

Explanation:
You have to start by forcing synchronization of the catalog so that
your SMS installation becomes aware of the new critical updates. After the
synchronization you have to target which computers are lacking the update so you
run a mandatory Scan as soon as possible. Next you retrieve the latest list over
applications and updates installed on the computers targeted by the Scan
advertisement and last but not least you actually create the package containing the
critical update and advertise it to your computers.
QUESTION 17:
You are the SMS administrator for Alecnet .com. The SMS 2003 site hierarchy
consists of a single primary site. Servers run Microsoft Windows Server 2003.

cycle has executed successfully on this client computer and hardware inventory has
been collected and rolled up to the site server.
QUESTION 20:
You are the SMS administrator for Alecnet .com. The SMS hierarchy consists of a
single primary site.
You use SMS to deploy a program that examines the latest version of the antivirus
software that is used by the computers on the network. Two advertisements use this
program. One advertisement runs daily on servers and portable computers.
Another advertisement runs weekly on desktop computers. You discover a security
flaw in the program that collects the antivirus software information.
You need to prevent computers from running the program until you fix the security
flaw. You need to ensure that all other advertisements function normally. You want
to achieve this goal by using the least amount of administrative effort.
What should you do?
A. Disable the program.
B. Delete the program.
C. Disable the Advertised Programs Client Agent.
D. Delete each advertisement.
Answer: A

You want to view the status messages for all components that are installed on each
server in a single screen. You want to view this information without using the SMS
Administrator console.
You need to configure SMS to generate the list of status messages.
Which two actions should you perform? (Each correct answer presents part of the
solution. Choose two.)
A. Create a status message query that displays status messages for the specified
components. Configure the status message query to use the server name as a parameter.
B. Create a report for each server. Configure each report to show status messages for the
specified components that are installed on the server.
C. Create a status message query for each server. Configure each query to show status
messages for the specified components that are installed on the server.
D. Create a dashboard and add all reports created to the dashboard.
E. Create a dashboard and add all queries created to the dashboard.
Answer: B, D
Explanation:
To view all the status messages in a single screen without using the
SMS Administrator console you'll have to use a custom dashboard that you access
through Report Viewer. You create a dashboard by determining the number of
reports that it can contain by specifying the number of rows and columns. Because
you cannot configure a dashboard to pass prompt values to a report that it contains,
you can only include reports that do not require prompts.

QUESTION 22:
You are the SMS administrator for Alecnet .com. The SMS hierarchy consists of
two primary sites. The SMS Advanced Client is installed on all computers.
You create a new advertisement to download and install Microsoft Office
Professional Edition 2003. The advertisement that uses this package is available
from all distribution points in both sites. A network administrator at one site
reports that a large amount of traffic is crossing the link that connects the two sites.
The traffic occurs as a result of the packages being downloaded by roaming clients
from a remote distribution point.
You need to prevent the SMS clients from downloading this package from a remote
distribution point, without affecting other packages.
What should you do?
A. Protect the distribution points.
B. Disable roaming.
C. Configure the advertisement not to run the program remotely.
D. Create an individual advertisement for each site.
Answer: C
Explanation:
You can configure an remote roaming Advanced client to skip
advertisement, download from remote distribution point and execute or run from
remote distribution point (see figure). In this case the right answer is to prohibit
roaming clients from using the remote distribution point.

QUESTION 23:
You are the SMS administrator for Alecnet .com. All servers run Microsoft
Windows Server 2003. Desktop computers run Windows XP Professional or
Windows NT Server 4.0. Your SMS 2003 site hierarchy consists of a single primary
site. Your site server is configured as a management point, client access point,
server locator point, and distribution point.
You want to install an application on all computers. Installing this application
requires administrative rights. You create an advertisement with a mandatory
assignment to install this application. You discover that all of the computers that
run Windows NT Server 4.0 fail to run the advertisement.
You need to ensure that computers running Windows NT Server 4.0 can run the
advertisement. You want to achieve this goal by using the least amount of
administrative effort.
What should you do?

A. Configure the SMS Service Account with administrative privileges on all Windows
NT Server 4.0 computers.
B. Instruct users to log on to their computers using the local Administrator account.
C. Configure an Advanced Client Network Access account.
D. Configure a Legacy Client Software Installation account.
Answer: D
Explanation:
When a user at a Legacy Client runs an advertised program locally,
that program has the potential to run under two user contexts. Unless otherwise
specified, the program runs under the logged-on user's context. If this user account
does not have sufficient privileges to install software on the client, configure the
program to run with administrative credentials by using the Legacy Client Software
Installation account. You can specify the Legacy Client Software Installation
Account by navigating in the SMS Administrator console tree to Site Settings,
pointing to Component Configuration, and then clicking Software Distribution.
Then, for programs that require this account, configure the program by selecting its
Properties dialog box, clicking the Environment tab, and then clicking Use Software
Installation Account.
QUESTION 24:
You are the SMS administrator for Alecnet .com. The SMS 2003 site hierarchy
consists of a single primary site named Site1.
You configure the Hardware Inventory Client Agent to run daily. A few days later,
you discover that no inventory data was available for a computer named Alecnet 1.
You need to find out whether Alecnet successfully gathered inventory data and
sent the data to the management point.
Which two files on Alecnet could you review? (Each correct answer presents a
complete solution. Choose two.)
A. DataTransferService.log
B. ExecMgr.log
C. InventoryAgent.log
D. CcmExec.log
Answer: C, D
Explanation:
CcmExec.log: Log file for the SMS Agent Host. After the advanced client has generated
discovery, inventory, status data, etc. data, this log file shows any communications errors
with the Management Point. (Example: WINHTTP ERROR may appear when a client
can't talk to the Management Point)
InventoryAgent.log: This log is for discovery, hardware and software inventory
processing of the Advanced Client. There is a single agent on the advanced client that is
used for all three of these processes. This log file shows properties being discovered in
HINV as well as paths in SINV being discovered. Look for the mp_xxxxEndpoint to see
what data is being sent to the management point.
Wrong Answers:
DataTransferService.log: Shows the actual download of policies that are retrieved from
the Management Point (including the URL used by the client to retrieve the data). The
Data Transfer Service is what actually completes the download of those policies. Check
this log file for advanced client problems transferring or obtaining polices from the
Management Point.
ExecMgr.log: Running advertised programs, similar to the SMSapm32.log file from the
SMS 2.0. Command lines executed, successful or not, and exit codes will appear in this
log file. Check this log for issues with advertisements.
