I've got a quiz here(non-school related), on some general server topics. I'd like to see what the experts here would consider to be ideal answers. Some of the questions are pretty general/open-ended.


1.After a server reboot, name 3 checks to ensure the server is stable and functioning?

Extremely general... try accessing the normal services provided by the server? Web server, ftp, exchange, etc?

2.Name one advantage of a clustered environment

Redundancy to protect against a single failure? Load balancing?

3.Name 3 of 5 IIS dependent services that may be stopped and restarted during an IIS restart?

I'm not an IIS guy. FTP, SMTP, NNTP?

4.Name two ways to connect to a server.

Extremely general...? SSH? VNC/Remote Desktop?

5. Define ?Managed Services? and ?Colocation?.

Remote data storage/faciliating server equipment, remote server administration?

6. Describe 3 actions you would take to respond to a monitoring alarm condition:

Verify the situation, look up the procedure for such an event, follow it?
