The Madrid office has seven computers that are configured to run Microsoft Windows XP Professional in a peer-to-peer network. Both the London and the Madrid offices make use of a Digital Subscriber Lines (DSL) connection for Internet access. You have been informed by the CIO that management wants to keep both offices up to date on projects and current events that take place in the company.

Microsoft Windows Small Business Server 2003 automatically creates a Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services Web site (http://companyweb) during installation. This Web site offers a central location for users to collaborate as well as data sharing. Consider it a bulletin board, digitized and turbo-boosted.
2. You are employed as the network consultant at Cer-teach .com. The Cer-teach .com network consists of a single Active Directory domain named Cer-teach .com. The majority of the staff at Cer-teach .com works normal business hours from the Monday to Friday, 8:30 A.M. to 5:30 P.M.
You have received instruction from the CIO to set up a backup schedule for a workstation that is configured to run Microsoft Windows Server 2003. This schedule should provide adequate time between 11:00 P.M. and 6:00 A.M. in order to back up the files. There is sufficient storage capacity to hold the backup. You thus need to propose a backup plan that will permit a restore in the least amount of steps.
What should you do?
A. Propose that a normal backup be used to backup tapes on Monday and incremental backups to backup tapes on Tuesday to Friday.
B. Propose that a copy backup to the server hard disk on Monday and normal backups to the server hard disk can be run on Tuesday through to Friday.
C. Propose that an incremental backup to the server hard disk be used on Monday and differential backups to the server hard drive should be used on Tuesday to Friday.
D. Propose that the plan should recommend for a normal backup to backup the tapes on Monday. The differential backups will then be needed to backup tapes on Tuesday through to Friday.
Answer: D
Explanation: A Normal backup does not use the archive feature to identify which files to back up. All selected items are transferred to the destination media. All backup strategies start with a Normal backup that basically creates a baseline, capturing all files in the backup job. Incremental backup only copies selected files that have archive bits and then it resets those archive bits. Differential backup only copies selected files that have archive bits without resetting those archive bits.
The fist example is related to the SharePoint and the next one is refer to back up.
