Practice 1 in Visual C#.NET

Maker QR-Code in Visual C#.NET Practice 1

Practice 1 Create a custom quota template to send an e-mail notification to the user when the user consumes 80 MB, send an e-mail notification to both the user and administrators when they consume 90 MB, and prevent the user from saving more data when the user consumes 100 MB. Apply the quota template, and then test it to verify that it works as expected and you receive the notifications. Notice the behavior of different applications as you try to save a file to the folder protected by the quota. Practice 2 Apply the template you created in Practice 1 using the DirQuota commandline tool.

The practice tests on this book s companion CD offer many options. For example, you can test yourself on just the content covered in this chapter, or you can test yourself on all the 70-642 certification exam content. You can set up the test so that it closely simulates the experience of taking a certification exam, or you can set it up in study mode so that you can look at the correct answers and explanations after you answer each question.

Printers are one of an organization s most complex management challenges. Because printers must be located physically near users, they re impossible to centralize. Printers require almost constant maintenance because ink must be replaced, paper must be refilled, and hardware must be fixed. Although printers will always be a challenge, Windows Server 2008 provides sophisticated tools to improve manageability and to allow you to quickly detect problems. This chapter describes how to install, share, and manage printers.

To complete the lesson in this chapter, you should be familiar with Microsoft Windows networking and be comfortable with the following tasks:

Adding roles to a Windows Server 2008 computer Configuring Active Directory directory service domain controllers and joining computers to a domain Basic network configuration, including configuring IP settings

You will also need the following nonproduction hardware, connected to test networks: 1. A computer named Dcsrv1 that is a domain controller in the Nwtraders.msft domain. This computer must have at least one network interface.

The computer and domain names you use will not affect these exercises. The practices in this chapter refer to these computer names for simplicity, however.

2. A computer named Boston that is a member of the Nwtraders.msft domain. 3. Optionally, one or more printers.

Tony Northrup Because they are full of moving parts and must be physically distributed, printers are always going to be a management challenge. Use these best practices to minimize print management costs:

Deploy two or more identical printers to each location and configure them as printer pools. Printer pools allow users to continue printing even if one printer fails and hardware problems are extremely common with printers. Try to use only one or two printer models throughout your organization. This will simplify the ink and replacement parts you need to stock, as well as minimize your employees training requirements. Connect printers directly to wired networks instead of connecting them to servers. This will provide more flexibility for choosing the location of your printers and allow you to physically secure your servers. Train users to perform basic printer management tasks, including refilling paper, replacing ink, and fixing jammed paper. This will reduce the number of printerrelated support calls.
