Chap-7 Flashcards
how much HDD space is required for a 32 bit version of windows 7 to be installed?
how about a 64 bit version?
16GB’s and 20gb’s.
what is a clean install and what is it called?
called custom install: all data is removed 1st.
if you start a compter from a windows cd and there is no drive to select to download the OS then what should you do (using RAID here)
load and install the RAID drivers.
if you have a dual boot OS system and want to make your computer boot from the other system then what do you need to do?
run the bcdedit.exe
command line tool used to mnage boot OS order.
when 4 or more hardware components (not the NIC) are changed in a system, will this impact the windows activation/ re-activation?
yes, the hardware hash ID will change and cause issues with authentication with the Microsoft servers. then you must re-authenticate the operating system.
how many other components must be changed out in a computer for the hardware hash id to change when the NIC network interface card has been changed out? (causes issues with the windows activation)
2 or more
then the user must re-authenticate the OS/
if i have a computer that i have not changes out or removed any of the hardware but instead added a bunch, will it effect the Microsoft authentication process?
no, as long as the original hardware is in a system then the hardware id will be the same and a user can add s many hardware parts as they want.
diff between powershell and command prompt?
powershell has built in cmdlets (commands) that work well with windows.
what is the command /lac do?
/lac: creates a user account if it does not exist on the destination computer
/
what does the /lae command do?
/lae: enables user account that was created with the /lac option (/lac is used to create a user account when it is not on the local system but was on the system that is being copied over.)

what 2 steps must one do to migrate specific app settings?
1.) run scanstate with /genconfig
(this makes a user configuration file that then can be edited)
2.) go into the config.xml file and edit it so that certain application settings are edited.
what are the 2 methods that are used to create a VHD file?
VHD= Virtual Hard Drive
1- Diskpart in the command prompt
2- disk management (allows management of each hdd and partitions)
what are the steps to create a VHD and what is a VHD?
VHD= Virtual Hard Drive.
- ) open disk management
- ) go to action
- ) create VHD - put in parameters
- ) select the VHD and enable it
- ) create volumes on the VHD
what are the steps to install windows on a VHD (Virtual hard drive)
1.) command prompt
2.) diskpart:
create vdisk file = (file name with drive letter) type=fixed maximum = (size in mbs)
diskpart > select vdisk file = file name
attach > vdisk
3.) put in windows cd then press shift F-10 to open command prompt
4.) diskpart> select vdisk file = win10.vhd
>attach vdisk
what is Bridged Networking?
when 2 or more virtual machines communicate over the physical network while being hosted on the same computer.
what is Host Only mode?
when a host computer is running hyper -visor virtualization and has several virtual operating systems that are then communicating with one another over a virtual network using virtual routers and switches that are also on the host machine.
(runs in RAM)
Sandbox environment?
virtual machines in an isolated area so that damage to current system will not ocure.
what are the system requirements to enable hyper V in a windows system?
1- 64 bit CPU
2- SLATT= second level address translation technology (cpu support)
3-virtualization enabled in BIOS / EUFI
4-lots of RAM installed (4 GB minimum)
how does one enable hyper v on a windows system (windows 8 or newer)
1-control panel
2- programs and features
3-hyper v
4-turn on
5-create the virtual machine at this point
6-link to ISO file or hardware optical drive
7- install and load the operating system
8- installation integration services (loads specialized network, display and mouse drivers within the VM). *works better than what windows would load on its own.
when selecting the virtual machine type (type 1 or two) what should one consider?
is the virtual machine going to be staying on one location or does it need to be portable and compatible with older versions of hyper v?
version 1 is compatible with older hyper v and is portable while version 2 is not.
what is dynamic memory in hyper v?
ram is added or removed to each virtual machine based on how it is used or needed.
what is a virtual machine checkpoint?
a snapshot or back up of a vertual machine. allows the machine to be reverted back to this ‘check point’ if ever needed.
how do you create a virtual machine checkpoint?
right click the VM, select create checkpoint,
