Pass Your Microsoft 70-412 Exam Easy!

Took the exam last week and past with a 8xx. Studied CBT Nuggets and this dump, thanks for uploading. Some new and reworded questions on the exam, same as the ones Pet listed.

Ellie / Revisited: Are you planning on doing an updated version of this dump any time soon with corrections from comments + the new questions?

If so, can you please add a direct download link such as dropbox...

Exam D Q30:
I think the answers belong to another question. To test if a VM replica is functional you should execute a "test failover" on the replica target (Exam C Q9)

CQ49 VM6 - Live Migration

DQ58 why not A? (Configure CAU)
http://technet.microsoft.com/library/dn486790.aspx
Important:
Before you perform a migration, you should install the latest updates for the operating systems on both the old failover cluster and the new failover cluster.

Thanks i passed this exam some new question though but is all good

Dump 85% valid.
Used CBT Nuggets videos & this dump.
Passed today - MCSA.
Determined to see MCSE done next year.
Merry Christmas folks.

Great dump!

I am confused on the question
DC1 hosts an Active Directory-integrated zone for contoso.com.
You add the DNS Server server role to DC2.
You discover that the contoso.com DNS zone fails to replicate to DC2.
You verify that the domain, schema, and configuration naming contexts replicate from DC1 to DC2.

You need to ensure that DC2 replicates the contoso.com zone by using Active Directory replication. Which tool should you use?

Have seen the following answers.
AD sites and Services
Repadmin
Dnslint
Ntdsutil
DNS manager
DNScmd

Any idea on what the correct answer is?

Hi Guys, I am confused on this question.

An Active Directory site exists for each office.
All domain controllers run Windows Server 2012. The domain contains two domain controllers.
The domain controllers are configured as shown in the following table.
You add the DNS Server server role to DC2.
You discover that the contoso.com DNS zone fails to replicate to DC2.
You verify that the domain, schema, and configuration naming contexts replicate from DC1 to DC2.
You need to ensure that DC2 replicates the contoso.com zone by using Active Directory
replication.
Which tool should you use?
A. Ntdsutil
B. DNS Manager
C. Active Directory Users and Computers
D. Active Directory Sites and Services

I have seen some dumps where the answer is A others is B.
Others is Repadmin and some are DNScmd.

Passed today with score 835. This dump is 80% Ok. Some question are wrong or different respons. Thank you very much and good luck for your MCSA.

Wrote and passed the exam using this dump and Joyce. 7 new questions and several reworded. Use the notes and check them with Technet. Passed with a 9XX. Unfortunately some of the answers are still wrong in this dump.
Good luck everyone! Happy Holidays!

FYI, I'm taking this test very soon and I'll update everyone with what questions I see.

Good luck everyone.

@ Pet

Thanks for the info. Anyone have an opinion on these questions? Here's my take.

New question - A looks correct?
B20 - Diskshadow
B36 - I'm not sure. None of those answers looks right.
B42/C19 - FC00 should work fine. I'm not good with IPV6, but addresses starting in FC and FD will work.
D8/16 - Interesting. Does this mean the answer must be Uninstall-ADDSDomainController? I read that a RODC can not replicate from another RODC.

A) Create new site link between NY and Amsterdam, remove Amsterdam from the DEFAULTSITELINK and configure schedule for the new site link
B) Create new site link between NY and Amsterdam, remove Amsterdam from the DEFAULTSITELINK and configure schedule for the DEFAULTSITELINK
C) Create new site link between NY and Montreal, remove Amsterdam from the DEFAULTSITELINK and configure schedule for the DEFAULTSITELINK
D) Create new site link between NY and Montreal, remove Amsterdam from the DEFAULTSITELINK and configure schedule for the new site link


Exam B, Q-20

You need to delete a specific shadow copy.
The solution must minimize server downtime.
Which tool should you use?

Available choices were:

Server1 has the Active Directory Certificate Services server role installed and is configured as a standalone certification authority (CA).
You install a second server named Server2.
You install the Online Responder role service on Server2.
You need to ensure that Server1 can issue an Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) Response Signing certificate to Server2.
What should you do?

D) certreg.exe with ...don't remember the parameter

Exam B, Q42 and Exam C, Q19
Instead of FD00, there was FC00 on the exam

Question about replicating RODC to RODC in perimeter network (Exam D, Q8, Q16 etc) - following choices were available:
A) Run dcpromo and specify the /createdcaccount parameter.
B) Enable the Bridge all site links setting.
c) Create an Active Directory subnet.
D) Run the Uninstall-ADDSDomainController cmdlet.

@PET
To use the automatic hosted cache server discovery you need to register corresponding SCPs and the question does not state that you already have done that. So my guess is that autodiscovery wont work.

Thank you guys for all the hard work..passed my exam on 161213 with 855..
PS: some new questions and some of the answers are still wrong..(sorry) good luck to all and a happy New Year..

Exam A, Q50
According to the article below, the correct answers should be
1) turn on branchchache
2) Enable automatic hosted cache discovery by service connection point

http://technet.microsoft.com/library/jj572988.aspx

The more I study, the more confused I get :-)

Passed w a 775
some new questions and reworded answers.....

The questions about adding RODC to perimeter network and replication from RODC DC10 - I think the answers are wrong. How can you run Add-ADDSReadOnlyDomainControllerAccount on DC10, which is read only DC itself? You won't be able to add the account from this DC. Or am I wrong?
This would mean that Revisitor could be right about Bridge all site links answer.
Anyone?

EXAM C - Q3
I agree with RinCE - I think the answers should be "Node and Disk Majority" and "Node and File Share Majority", and no others...

@ Revisitor:
First of all thanks a lot for your work.

So the questions about caching passwords on RODC - the answer about User rights assignment in Local policies is wrong? Should we use repadmin /replsingleobj instead? (C-Q39)

B-Q50
You need first to mask (hide) the storage from cluster 1 and then unmask (present) it to cluster 2
I found it on couple of places, one is here:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/hugofe/archive/2012/12/06/best-practices-for-migration-of-cluster-windows-2008-r2-2012-as-melhores-praticas-para-migrar-um-cluster-de-windows-2008-para-windows-2012.aspx

Passed 749. 8 new questions

hello all i pass with 700+ it yesterday 13/12/2013 bt some Question has wrong Ans so be careful.also consalt other bt Thanx Allah and thnx All that supported Me.

@Elie, Thanks for all you help. Hoping to follow you soon in passing. Goodluck with MCSE!

@ Revisitor do you release a new dump with corrections ?

Congratulations to all MCSA!

Passed with success, about 900points.
48 questions from the dump, 2 others questions.

You should ensure you know the usage for some certutil commands that are not in the dump (certutil getkey, certutil verify, certutil setreg...)
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc732443.aspx

you should ensure you know the usage for wbadmin subcommands.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc754015.aspx

I wish everybody good luck for the exam (and an happy new year!)

One other difference in the exam
This particular question is in the dump a few times.

Exam D, Q 8 (RODC in Perimeter network)
One of the options was Uninstall-ADDSDomainController
I think this was the answer because the perimeter can only communicate with the Branch LAN, but RODC cannot replicate off of another RODC.

Took exam yesterday, used this Dump & CBTNuggets, got over 900.
I noticed one difference on a question
Exam C, Q16
Drive G is actually ReFS formatted.
This explains why the question reads "choose two", but in the dump we have three answers.

HEY GUYS :D , passed 8xx all the questions from mine and revisited dump , but focus on revisited one because its the last update , dump valid 100 % , i got only one new question about the windows recovery Environment(WPE) ITS AN POWER SHELL ANSWERS I CHOOSE WBAADMIN.EXE , SEE IN 70-415 AND 70-416 I WILL DO MY MCSE (DESKTOP INFRASTRUCTURE ) BECAUSE I NEED IT MORE IN MY WORK , GOOD LUCK EVERYONE AND DO NOT HESIATATE YOUR COMMENTS IN ORDER TO HELP YOU SUCCEED , PEACE OUT

Passed yesterday be carefoul many new questions but you can to pass with this exam and some idea of microsoft in my rol i am working in this tecnologic nowaday. Thanks everybody for good and excelent web hepfull

Dear All,
Passed today (Finally MCSA).
Dump valid (but corrections needed - see them in comments), 4-5 new questions.

for the backupdb is the write answer because we already did a manufacture backup so the keys was backed up

Exam B Q50

Umask from cluster 1
MASK for cluster 2

Exam C Q23 , THE WRITE ANSWER IS nltest/sc_query

Reports on the state of the secure channel the last time that you used it. (The secure channel is the one that the NetLogon service established.) This parameter lists the name of the domain controller that you queried on the secure channel, also.


for the %logonserver% is not correct because is used for users not for computers

@ Revisited , i am wiritng today in 2 hours , i will let u know as soon as possible , fingers crossed

@ Revisitor Great job When you have a new DUMP WITH CORRECTIONS can you post it on dropbox it takes some days to post it on examcollection

@ elie good plan you and Revisitor help each other to make a good dump

To everyone lets help elie and Revisitor to make a good 70-412 dump

So that we can succeed the 70-412

@Lunatic : i think you're on the wrong topic, this dump was posted yesterday, i think you used a previous dump ;)

@Elie: I'm writing the test....this week so feel free to merge ou dumps and release a new one with all corrections needed.

---------------------------------------
Answers i 'm not really comfortable with:

-The Bootrec/Bcdedit....i think i ll answer Bootrec if they say WinRe,WinPe or don't start, and BCDedit if they say "we started 2012".

-The Initial replication for the second RODC in the perimeter(D-Q23 and D-Q27): Questions is trickky: a RODC will never replicate from another RODC, whatever you do...I'm starting to think the questions relays on site bridge link creating....
(note: for the other questions on DNS replication on rodc when you install dns after rodc, the answer is dnscmd/ntdsutil, for sure)

-The password caching on the rodc (ensure you can log if the wan fail)...I think i'll use repadmin options as in the certkit.
Using ntdsutil local role would permit you to define the delegated admin locally on the rodc...user1 is already delegated admin, can't be that.
and it's bad practice anyway:
"Using ntdsutil or dsmgmt to specify the delegated RODC administrator account is not recommended because the information is stored only locally on the RODC. Therefore, when you use ntdsutil local roles to delegate an administrator for the RODC, the account that you specify does not appear on the Managed By tab of the RODC account properties. As a result, using the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in or a similar tool will not reveal that the RODC has a delegated administrator."(technet cc755310).

-For the "backupdb" question, i think "backupkey" and "backup"(wich do backupkey and backupdb) will fail because the HSM presence. Key is backuped using the manufacturer tool, we have database and logs to backup. Not sure cause not technet source: http://poweradmin.se/blog/2010/01/11/backup-and-restore-for-active-directory-certificate-services/
technet use "backup" to backup the both (but no speaking about HSM) : http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc737405

B-Q26: This one , i choosed C ...but i don't find any clear answer, as "fail to start" is a little bit short scenario for me.

b-Q50: sentences with "mask and unmask" are wrong from the start. real order is unmask then mask but the definitions are wrong : first we prevent acces from old cluster, then we give acces to the new cluster. The sentences will be correct in the test, so "unmask to prevent" then "mask to present".

C-Q23: not sure if longonserver would return wich DC authenticated the user or wich DC authenticated the computer. NLTEST seems to return wich DC authenticated the computer, could be a better answer. Someone ?

D-Q30: not clear....
---------------------------------------

Maybe a change! C-Q1 : we have root hints and a forwarder...if we remove one, the server with resolve using the other.
To ensure server 1 resolve names only in contoso, we can also "Disable Recursion on the DNS Server " in dns manager advanced properties. That would be answer D, and the server will not resolve anymore outside of local dns zones (there is a approaching questions in Certification kit that lead me there, i'm pretty sure it' that.)

Exam D Q35

answer is A:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc770842(v=ws.10).aspx

Passed using this dump. Thanks a lot to everyone who helped with this dump. Study and good luck to every one. Happy New Year! Cheers!

Thank you very much Mr Revisitor for your comments

I have discussed the questions with one of Microsoft Expert he agreed with most of correction that has been made but he disagreed with the following questions

Exam A Q14
answer should be backupkey parameter

Exam B Q50
answer should be in this order
1. Migrate Cluster Wizard on Cluster 2 @
2. Shutdown all VMs on the source
3. Unmask the common shared storage (LUNs) so that they are not presented to the Windows Server 2008 R2 source cluster
4. Mask the common shared storage (LUNs) to the Windows Server 2012 target cluster.
5. Start all VMs on the target Windows Server 2012 cluster.

Exam C 43
answer should be on DC10 run ntdsutil and configure the setting in the local Roles context

Exam A Q37

C. On Server2, add Server1 to Server Manager
This is the correct answer I tested it

please someone validate this dump.

Exam B Q50
I believe the answer is in this order
1. Migrate Cluster Wizard on Cluster 2
2. Shutdown all VMs on the source
3. Unmask the common shared storage (LUNs) so that they are not presented to the Windows Server 2008 R2 source cluster
4. Mask the common shared storage (LUNs) to the Windows Server 2012 target cluster.
5. Start all VMs on the target Windows Server 2012 cluster.

Exam D Q5 :

You can use the Bootrec.exe tool in the Windows Recovery Environment (Windows RE) to troubleshoot and repair the following items in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
A master boot record (MBR)
A boot sector
A Boot Configuration Data (BCD) store

@ Revisited and please if you can note the questions that you have doubt on them so we can focus in correction thanks

@ Revisited let help each other in order to have a correct dump , so now we will work on your dump and any comments i will post it for you , i am writing next week so hope we can finish it before the weekends . thanks for your help

Seems to have loads of corrections.
Anyway, no one has commented this one in all other dumps!
EXAM C - Q3
I think the answers should be "Node and Disk Majority" and "Node and File Share Majority", and no others...

guys you keep posting exams without any comments we don't know what's going on, is there any corrections or is there new questions, please justify.

other corrections i added:

D-Q1; D-Q13: "Debug logging from DNS Manager" for all questions on "Logging packets or contents of queries".... monitoring is not logging

B-Q9 and file server questions: if DFS replication, Scale-Out is not possible. Only File Server for General Use support DFS Replication.

B-Q53: knowing that "Using Windows Azure Backup does not require that you install Windows Server Backup" (technet hh831761), you just have to order the other asnwers: sign up, dl agent, install agent, register server.

D-Q65: To use an SQL database in ADFS, you must not use Standalone mode. Use install-ADFSFARM ( check on d-Q25)



About the Boot menu questions (Bootrec everywhere in the dump...), in MS certKits, they use BCDEDit to add a element to boot menu from windows 2012. MS use Bootrec if 2012 doesn't start or from WinRe. Can someone give us a final answer, i'm sure it can't be bootrec each time, too easy to remember ;)

There are still some answer i'm not really clear with, do not hesitate to help if you can dig things out...

@Elie, about A-Q50:

The link you provide is about windows 7.
The question is about Windows 8.

Check Exam question 54: this is the similar case with Windows 7 and 8 computers, and we add the "Set branchcache hosted cache mode" for the 7 computers to "get it". Windows 8 computers use the "configure hosted cache" setting.

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj127252.aspx

This is KSP, with the corrections from comments added.

Some answers were changed and a lot of technet links added as proof to old and changed answers.

But first, there is an error i found after uploading:
Exam A Q37 : answer is "C.On Server2, add Server1 to Server Manager".
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831453.aspx

Important Corrections in the dump that were not in comments:
1)The questionS were you ADD dns to an RODC after the install, it's a trick: "If you install a DNS server after the installation of AD DS,[you must] enlist the RODC in the DNS application directory partitions".
This is done using "dnscmd /EnlistDirectoryPartition "
or
You might encounter the following error when you run this command:

Command failed: ERROR_DS_COULDNT_CONTACT_FSMO 8367 0x20AF

If this error appears, use NTDSUTIL to add the RODC for the partition to be replicated:

ntdsutil
partition management
connections
connect to server .Child.contoso.com
quit
add NC Replica DC=DomainDNSZones,DC=Child, DC=Contoso,DC=Com .Child.contoso.com

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc742490(WS.10).aspx
so answer is "dnscmd" or "ntdsutil" for the DNS replication questions on RODC

2)The other RODC questions with password caching that you must to ensure.
In MS certification kits, the (microsoft) given answer is "repadmin /prp" to pre-cache passwords on RODC.
The "ntdsutil local roles" is wrong answer in MS CertKit, i would choose another one with repadmin if /prp is not there.

Search for "Managing passwords and the PRP", "Administering the Password Replication Policy", "Credential caching" on technet leads to the prp and repadmin usage.

So.... Elie OR Revisited ????

@ Revisited , can you please tell us what is ur correction . thanks for your help

Exam A Q50 :

Only "Turn on BranchCache" and "Configure Hosted Cache Servers" selected in answer.
BUT its "Set BranchCache Hosted Cache mode" must be selected insteat of "Configure Hosted Cache Servers"
