Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain contains two servers named Server1 and Server2 that have the Windows Deployment Services server role installed.
You use Windows Deployment Services (WDS) to deploy operating systems to client computers.
Server1 contains two boot images and two install images of Windows 8.
You copy the images to the appropriate WDS image folders on Server2.
You need to ensure that you can use the images on Server2 to install the client computers.
What should you do on Server2?
A. Run wdsutil.exe and specify the /bcdrefreshpolicy parameter.
B. Run bcdboot.exe and specify the /addlast parameter.
C. Run wdsutil.exe and specify the /resetbootprogram parameter.
D. Run bcdboot.exe and specify the fm parameter.
Correct Answer: A
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
WDSUTIL /set-server configures the settings for a Windows Deployment Services server.
More specifically, WDSUTIL /set-server /BcdRefreshPolicy /Enabled:yes /RefreshPeriod:<time in minutes>
Causes the server to regenerate BCD stores in the Tmp folder for all boot images.
If you do not configure this policy or if your refresh period is too long, network boots will fail with the following error message:
"The boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible." (0xc000000f).
This is because the server must be regenerate the corresponding BCD before a client can receive a boot image from the server.
Incorrect answers:
Not B, not C: The BCDboot tool of no use here. It is a command-line tool that enables you to manage system partition files. You can use the tool in the following scenarios:
* Setting up a system partition when you deploy new computers.
* Setting up Windows® to boot to a virtual hard disk.
* Repairing the boot environment located on the system partition.
Not D: The {/ResetBootProgram:{Yes | No} parameter just determines whether the boot path will be erased for a client that has just booted without requiring an F12 key press.
