Foreword from the Publisher
Wiley’s publishing vision for the Microsoft Official Academic Course series is to provide
students and instructors with the skills and knowledge they need to use Microsoft technol-
ogy effectively in all aspects of their personal and professional lives. Quality instruction is
required to help both educators and students get the most from Microsoft’s software tools and
to become more productive. Thus our mission is to make our instructional programs trusted
educational companions for life.
To accomplish this mission, Wiley and Microsoft have partnered to develop the highest quality
educational programs for Information Workers, IT Professionals, and Developers. Materials
created by this partnership carry the brand name “Microsoft Official Academic Course,”
assuring instructors and students alike that the content of these textbooks is fully endorsed by
Microsoft, and that they provide the highest quality information and instruction on Microsoft
products. The Microsoft Official Academic Course textbooks are “Official” in still one more
way—they are the officially sanctioned courseware for Microsoft IT Academy members.
The Microsoft Official Academic Course series focuses on workforce development. These pro-
grams are aimed at those students seeking to enter the workforce, change jobs, or embark
on new careers as information workers, IT professionals, and developers. Microsoft Official
Academic Course programs address their needs by emphasizing authentic workplace scenarios
with an abundance of projects, exercises, cases, and assessments.
The Microsoft Official Academic Courses are mapped to Microsoft’s extensive research
and job-task analysis, the same research and analysis used to create the Microsoft Certified
Technology Specialist (MCTS) exam. The textbooks focus on real skills for real jobs. As stu-
dents work through the projects and exercises in the textbooks they enhance their level of
knowledge and their ability to apply the latest Microsoft technology to everyday tasks. These
students also gain resume-building credentials that can assist them in finding a job, keeping
their current job, or in furthering their education.
The concept of life-long learning is today an utmost necessity. Job roles, and even whole
job categories, are changing so quickly that none of us can stay competitive and productive
without continuously updating our skills and capabilities. The Microsoft Official Academic
Course offerings, and their focus on Microsoft certification exam preparation, provide a
means for people to acquire and effectively update their skills and knowledge. Wiley sup-
ports students in this endeavor through the development and distribution of these courses as
Microsoft’s official academic publisher.
Today educational publishing requires attention to providing quality print and robust elec-
tronic content. By integrating Microsoft Official Academic Course products, WileyPLUS,
and Microsoft certifications, we are better able to deliver efficient learning solutions for
students and teachers alike.

Illustrated Book Tour
■ Pedagogical Features
The MOAC textbook for Windows Server 2008 Administrator is designed to cover all the
learning objectives for that MCTS exam, which is referred to as its “objective domain.” The
Microsoft Certified Information Technology Professional (MCITP) exam objectives are high-
lighted throughout the textbook. Many pedagogical features have been developed specifically
for Microsoft Official Academic Course programs.
Presenting the extensive procedural information and technical concepts woven throughout
the textbook raises challenges for the student and instructor alike. The Illustrated Book Tour
that follows provides a guide to the rich features contributing to Microsoft Official Academic
Course program’s pedagogical plan. Following is a list of key features in each lesson designed
to prepare students for success on the certification exams and in the workplace:
• Each lesson begins with an Objective Domain Matrix. More than a standard list of
learning objectives, the Domain Matrix correlates each software skill covered in the
lesson to the specific MCITP “objective domain.”
• Concise and frequent Step-by-Step instructions teach students new features and pro-
vide an opportunity for hands-on practice. Numbered steps give detailed, step-by-step
instructions to help students learn software skills. The steps also show results and
screen images to match what students should see on their computer screens.
• Illustrations: Screen images provide visual feedback as students work through the
exercises. The images reinforce key concepts, provide visual clues about the steps, and
allow students to check their progress.
• Key Terms: Important technical vocabulary is listed at the beginning of the lesson.
When these terms are used later in the lesson, they appear in bold italic type and are
defined. The Glossary contains all of the key terms and their definitions.
• Engaging point-of-use Reader aids, located throughout the lessons, tell students why
this topic is relevant (The Bottom Line), provide students with helpful hints (Take
Note), or show alternate ways to accomplish tasks (Another Way). Reader aids also
provide additional relevant or background information that adds value to the lesson.
• Certification Ready? features throughout the text signal students where a specific
certification objective is covered. They provide students with a chance to check their
understanding of that particular MCITP objective and, if necessary, review the section
of the lesson where it is covered. MOAC offers complete preparation for MCITP
certification.
• Knowledge Assessments provide three progressively more challenging lesson-ending
activities.

■ Deploying Application Servers spanned dynamic disk volumes, the system must meet the following requirements:
• The existing volume must not be full and must contain the specified amount of available
Organizations supply their employees with computers so that they can get work done, and free space for shrinking.
THE BOTTOM LINE
to accomplish this goal, the users need computer programs designed to aid them in the
performance of specific tasks. These programs are also known as applications. • The volume must not be a raw partition (one without a file system). Shrinking a raw
partition that contains data might destroy the data.
• You can shrink a volume only if you formatted it using the NTFS file system.
Architecturally, applications in the enterprise can take several forms, but all of these forms (You cannot shrink volumes using the FAT or FAT32 file systems.)
typically involve a server in some fashion, as follows:
• You cannot shrink striped, mirrored, or RAID-5 volumes.
• You should always defragment a volume before you attempt to shrink it.
Line Reader RAID is a proven high availability technology that was first defined in 1988, but server-attached
RAID arrays are subject to scalability problems. You can install only so many drives into a single
Aid computer. Also, the terminated SCSI bus that was originally used for connections to external
drive arrays is limited to 16 devices and a maximum length of 25 yards.
At the highest level, a storage area network (SAN) is simply a network dedicated solely to
high-speed connections between servers and storage devices. Instead of installing disk drives
JWCL089_ch04_124-159.indd Page 133 9/10/08 3:23:14 PM epg /Volumes/102/JWCL089/work%0/indd%0/MOAC_Ch04 into servers or connecting them using a SCSI bus, a SAN consists of one or more drive arrays
equipped with network interface adapters, which you connect to your servers using standard
twisted pair or fiber optic network cables. A SAN-connected server, therefore, has a minimum
of two network adapters, one for the standard LAN connection, and one for the SAN, as
shown in Figure 6-15.

Microsoft designed the Web server role services to support a wide variety of application devel-
opment environments and administration requirements. Unless you plan to run a large num-
ber of applications that require different development environments, you will not need all of
the role services that Web Server (IIS) role provides. In fact, Microsoft includes some of the
role services, particularly some of those in the Application Development category, primarily
to support legacy applications. If your organization is creating new applications for the server
deployment, then it makes sense to select a single development environment and install only
the role services needed to support those applications.

USING THE UDDI SERVICES ROLE
Originally designed to be the basis for a worldwide directory of Internet sites and services,
it is now more common for large organizations to use Universal Description, Discovery, and
Integration (UDDI) as an internal catalog of their available Web services. Clients on the com-
pany intranet or a protected extranet can use a Web interface to access the catalog and search
for the services the company’s Web servers provide.
The UDDI Services role in Windows Server 2008 consists of the following role services:
• UDDI Services Database—Provides a central storage location for the UDDI catalog and
the service’s configuration settings
• UDDI Services Web Application—Implements a Web site with which users and applica-
tions can access the UDDI catalog to search for Web services on the network

To take full advantage of that DHCP server, a designer can assign other roles to it as well.

hardware, as shown in Figure 4-5.

You can add as many targets to a folder as you need. Typically, administrators add multiple
targets to namespace folders to balance the server load and give users at different locations
local access to the folders. Adding multiple targets means that you will have identical copies
of the target on different servers. These duplicate targets must remain identical, so you will

• Converts basic disk primary partitions and logical drives in the extended partition to
simple volumes
• Marks any free space in a basic disk extended partition as unallocated
Earlier versions of Windows use the correct terminology in the Disk Management snap-in.
The menus enable you to create partitions on basic disks and volumes on dynamic disks.
Windows Server 2008 uses the term volume for both disk types, and enables you to create
any of the available volume types, whether the disk is basic or dynamic. If the volume type
you select is not supported on a basic disk, the wizard converts it to a dynamic disk (with

your permission) as part of the volume creation process.
Despite the menus that refer to basic partitions as volumes, the traditional rules for basic
disks remain in effect. The New Simple Volume menu option on a basic disk creates up to
three primary partitions. When you create a fourth volume, the wizard actually creates an
extended partition and a logical drive of the size you specify. If there is any remaining space
on the disk, you can create additional logical drives in the extended partition.
WARNING When you use DiskPart.exe, a command line utility included with Windows Server 2008, to manage basic
disks, you can create four primary partitions or three primary partitions and one extended partition. The DiskPart.exe utility
contains a superset of the commands supported by the Disk Management snap-in. In other words, DiskPart can do everything
Disk Management can do, and more. However, while the Disk Management Snap-in prevents you from unintentionally
performing actions that might result in data loss, DiskPart has no safeties, and so does not prohibit you from performing such
actions. For this reason, Microsoft recommends that only advanced users use DiskPart and that they use it with due caution.
To create a new simple volume on a basic or dynamic disk, use the following procedure.

156 | Lesson 4
When a Terminal Services client accesses a RemoteApp application, the terminal server pro-
vides a separate operating environment for the application, just as when the client accesses
an entire desktop. If the client computer experiences a problem, the application continues to
run, because it has its own memory and other hardware resources. The same is true if one of
the other Terminal Services sessions on the server experiences a problem. Because the sessions
use separate environments, one can fail without affecting the others.
When two different client computers launch RemoteApp applications using the same
terminal server, the server creates two separate sessions, each with its own virtualized envi-
TAKE NOTE
* ronment. However, when a single client computer launches two RemoteApp applications
on the same terminal server, the server uses one session for both applications. Therefore, it
is possible for a fault in one application to affect the performance of the other.
With RemoteApp, as with any Terminal Services session, the application runs using the termi-
nal server’s hardware resources, so the virtualization is actually occurring on the server, not the
client. However, it is possible to virtualize applications in such a way that they run on the cli-
ent, not the server. To do this, you can use a product called Microsoft SoftGrid Application
Virtualization.
Microsoft SoftGrid Application Virtualization creates a customized virtualized environment
for an application that you can deploy to clients from a server, much as you do RemoteApp
applications, using terminal servers. The main difference between the two is that the server
actually transfers the virtual environment to the client, enabling the client to run the applica-
tion using its own hardware, without the need to perform an application installation.

• Applications in the enterprise can take several forms, including client-run applications, cli-
ent/server applications, and distributed applications.
• The number of roles a server can perform depends on the computer’s hardware configura-
tion, the hardware requirements of the role, and the size and scope of the enterprise.
• Distributing server roles among several computers has several distinct advantages, includ-
ing fault tolerance, ease of resource allocation, high availability, server scalability, security
configuration, dispersed network traffic, and simpler update management.
• Terminal Services works by running applications on a Windows Server 2008 server and
enabling desktop computers to operate those applications from a remote location. JWCL089_ch04_124-159.indd Page 159 9/10/08 3:23:22 PM epg

■ Case Scenarios
Summary Skills Matrix Several months ago, Kathleen installed the Terminal Services role on one of her Windows
Server 2008 servers and has been using it to provide clients with access to a custom-designed
credit reporting application. This morning, she began receiving calls from users complaining
that they could no longer access their Terminal Services desktops. What is the most likely
cause of the problem, and what must Kathleen do to resolve it?
■ Knowledge Assessment You suggest using Terminal Services to host the applications. Ralph, however, knows nothing
about Terminal Services. Explain how using Terminal Services can resolve all of the network
design problems Ralph is experiencing.

After you decide which exam to take, review the list of objectives for the exam. You can easily
identify tasks that are included in the objective list by locating the Objective Domain Matrix
at the start of each lesson and the Certification Ready sidebars in the margin of the lessons in
this book.
To take the MCITP test, visit www.microsoft.com/learning/mcp/mcitp to locate your nearest
testing center. Then call the testing center directly to schedule your test. The amount of advance
notice you should provide will vary for different testing centers, and it typically depends on
the number of computers available at the testing center, the number of other testers who have
already been scheduled for the day on which you want to take the test, and the number of times
per week that the testing center offers MCITP testing. In general, you should call to schedule
your test at least two weeks prior to the date on which you want to take the test.
When you arrive at the testing center, you might be asked for proof of identity. A driver’s
license or passport is an acceptable form of identification. If you do not have either of these
items of documentation, call your testing center and ask what alternative forms of identifica-
tion will be accepted. If you are retaking a test, bring your MCITP identification number,
which will have been given to you when you previously took the test. If you have not prepaid
or if your organization has not already arranged to make payment for you, you will need to
pay the test-taking fee when you arrive.

Exploring the Variety of Random
Documents with Different Content
inspected the controls of the mighty atomic piles.
Norris knew a good bit about those controls. He had been here many
times, and Petersen and the other technicians had liked to talk. The
trouble was, that right now his thoughts all seemed a little foggy.
"What we got to do," Kincaid said ponderously, "is change 'round the
atomic pile setup so it'll handle bismuth instead of uranium. Right?"
"Right!" Norris approved enthusiastically. "That's going right to the
heart of the problem, old pal!"
Kincaid seemed to blush in deprecation. "Oh, I jus' got an orderly
mind. First thing now, is to shift the uranium lattices out of the piles."
He laid his hands on several of the levers, one after another. There
was a low humming of machinery somewhere.
In the distant, towering structure, lattices loaded with uranium were
being mechanically withdrawn to the pits beneath. But there was
nothing happening here except on the panel of indicators.
Petersen came back to consciousness at that moment. Tied to a wall
stanchion, he stiffened and his eyes bugged at them.
"What are you two doing?" he cried. "You're cutting off the power by
pulling out those lattices!"
"Only temp'rarily," Norris assured him. "We'll shift empty lattices back
in, and then load the bismuth into them."
Petersen uttered a howl of agony. "You maniacs will wreck the whole
pile if you try a stunt like that! For heaven's sake, sober up and think
what you're doing!"
"We're tryin' to think," Kincaid said sternly. "But how can we
co'centrate, with you yelling at us?"
Petersen went from raging orders to agonized pleadings to tearful
entreaty. The two ignored him completely.
"Le's see, now," Kincaid said, blinking. "We'll leave in the Number
One uranium lattice after all. We'll need its neutrons to trigger the
expanding series of graphite and bismuth lattices."
"We'll need two uranium lattices," Doug Norris corrected thickly.
"One to trigger the first action, the other to pr'vide neutrons for the
continuous shuttle that'll run the bismuth's atomic number up from
eighty-three to ninety-four, right up through neptunium to plutonium."
"You're right," Kincaid agreed, hiccuping slightly. "I forgot 'bout that
second lattice for a minute. Mus' be because of all the noise in here."
All the way back to the Proxy Project, Kincaid kept dazedly repeating
the same thing over and over.
"We must have been clear out of our heads to do a thing like that!
But how is it that we were able to do it right?"
"Haven't you suspected the answer to that yet?" cried Doug Norris.
"Don't you see why, as soon as our conscious minds were relaxed
by a few drinks, we automatically went and performed an operation
totally beyond present-day nuclear science? What happened to us
just before we had those drinks? What happened when our Proxies
met those Raddies down in the fissure?"
"The Raddies?" Kincaid repeated stupidly. "What could those brutes
have to do with this?"
"We thought they were only brutes, a low form of queer radioactive
life," Norris said. "But what if their weird minds are intelligent,
supremely intelligent? An intelligence that doesn't operate for
purposes or in ways like ours, but that's as high or higher than
ours?"
He almost dragged the stunned Kincaid into the deserted office, to
the control-boards of the Proxies at Base.
"Take over a Proxy and follow me," Norris ordered. "I've an idea that
if we go down in that fissure again, we can prove it."
"Prove what?" Kincaid asked, but mechanically obeyed and took
over a Proxy control.
Again, Norris and Kincaid guided their Proxies out of Base and
across the seared Mercury plain toward Fissure Four. Norris peered
down into the fissure as he advanced. Then as they glimpsed the
wrecked Proxies they had previously left there, they also glimpsed
glowing little clouds flowing rapidly toward them.
A Raddy lifted its glowing gaseous body to envelop the control-box
of Norris' Proxy. Again, as he stared into the thing's brilliant, pulsing
core, he felt his senses reel queerly. But this time, he knew beyond
any doubt what it was.
"Hypnosis!" he yelled to Kincaid. "Hypnosis operating through our
Proxies' eyes right back along the beam to our own eyes and brains!
I thought so!" His shout died away as his brain reeled under the
powerful hypnotic influence of the Raddy's pulsing, starlike core.
Hypnosis could operate by vision, everyone knew that. Nobody had
dreamed of hypnosis operating across space by means of a linking
television beam, but it was happening. For Doug Norris, resisting
now with new-found knowledge, just dimly sensed the powerful
hypnotic order the Raddy's pulsing brain was hurling into his own
mind.
"You will not send your crude machines down here again to disturb
our philosophical reveries!" the Raddy's hypnotic thought was sternly
ordering him. "There is no further need. When we read from your
minds that it was need for uranium for your primitive power plants
that motivated your intrusions here, we gave your brains the post-
hypnotic knowledge to improve those power plants so you would not
need to come here again. So go, and do not return!"
Under that powerful hypnotic command, both Norris and Kincaid
turned their Proxies and fled back up the fissure.
Not until they had reached Base again, not until they had ripped off
the television helmets, did Doug Norris feel that powerful hypnotic
command relax.
"It's as I suspected!" he cried. "It was the Raddies who put that
knowledge in our minds! Who would know nuclear science better
than they?"
Kincaid stared, his jaw dropping. "Then, to stop our bothering them,
they did that by post-hypnotic command working back along our own
Proxy-beams?"
"Yes!" cried Doug Norris. "Ironic, isn't it? They worked back along our
own beams and made Proxies out of us!"
