❑ Practice 3: Convert a basic disk to a dynamic disk using the Diskpart.exe command-line
utility.
❑ Practice 4: Using the Disk Management snap-in, experiment with the different
options available when accessing basic and dynamic disks.
❑ Practice 5: Create a striped disk by combining two dynamic disks.
❑ Practice 6: Use mount points to graft a dynamic volume into the file system of
an existing volume.
❑ Practice 7: Move files between compressed and uncompressed folders on an
NTFS volume, and notice whether the compression status is inherited from
the source or destination folder.
❑ Practice 8: Move files between compressed and uncompressed folders on different
NTFS volumes, and notice whether the compression status is inherited
from the source or destination folder.
❑ Practice 9: Compress different types of files, and determine which file types
benefit the most from compression.
❑ Practice 10: Create a share that only members of the Administrators group can
access.
❑ Practice 11: Create a shared folder using the net share command.
❑ Practice 12: Remotely connect to a folder shared from a Windows XP Professional
system. Then, from the system hosting the shared folder, open the
Shared Folders snap-in. Use this tool to send all connected users a message
warning them that their session will be disconnected. Finally, forcibly disconnect
the user’s session.
❑ Practice 13: Grant a user Full Control over a folder by using NTFS file permissions.
Create a share, and grant that same user only Read access at a share
level. Experiment with that user’s ability to write files to the shared folder
when accessing across the network. Do that user’s rights differ when accessing
the same folder when logged on locally?
❑ Practice 14: Stop the Workstation service and attempt to connect to a shared
folder. Next, stop the Server service and attempt to create a shared folder.
Important For the following task, you should complete at least Practices 1 through 4. If
you want hands-on experience with every aspect of the exam and you have the extra lab
resources needed to do Practice 5, then complete Practice 5 as well.
