| Hlang has just completed creating a document and wants to save it to his home directory which is located on a file server on the network. Disk Quotas have been implemented where his home directory resides. Hlang is unable to save to new document to his home directory because this would cause him to exceed his disk quota.
What can Hlang do to save his newly created document to his home directory located on the file server? (Select the best choice)
A. Encrypt the new file.
B. Assign the ownership of some of his existing files to other users.
C. Compress the newly created file.
D. Compress his home directory.
E. Delete unnecessary files from his home directory.
F. Compress the new file and his home directory.
Good luck and see you tomorrow for the answer!! | |

| The answer is most certainly E.
That is if Hlang HAS unnecessary files. Hypothetically speaking of course. | |

| B,E. | |
|
| I say (E) even though it seems a little too obvious. | |
| OmnipotentOne 2002-11-25, 12:12 pm |
| I'd have to say B n E.
However the compression would have to be using some third party compression utility cause disk quotas, as I understand it, look at the actual file size and not the compressed file size. So I'd go with E, unless being asked for multiple answers. | |

| Duh! E.  | |
| Forsaken 2002-11-25, 2:33 pm |
| E is for Erase! I would also educate the user to take out the unecessary mp3s that he has secretly tried to save in his directory.
(just kidding) | |

| Answers (B) and (E) should take care of the nasty disk quota problem. You must remove your pRon hlang! j/k
Question on clarity. When hlang assigns ownership of some of his existing files to other user(s), do they have to actually take ownership of the files before the file sizes is removed from hlang's quota count?
Er...did that make sense? | |

| E.
Transferring ownership to circumvent Disk Qoutas is not an acceptable practice. Microsoft is not going to test your ability to hack your way around administrative policies. | |

| Going with E on this one.
came up in the Test.... | |

Comment noted Tech Ranger. Upon re-reading Spid's question, it mentions "Select the best choice" implying one, best answer so I'll revise my answer to just (E). | |

| I'm a little late for this question....anyway, I'm going with "E" as well. | |

Ummm...I don't think so.
Also, I don't see how Deja could have had this question on his 70-210 exam seeing that this question was taken from a 70-215 practice exam set. | |

And the answer is.....E
Disk quotas are based on the uncompressed size of the files you own. Disk quotas ignore the compression state of files, so it does not matter if you compress your files or not. Because of this, you will only be able to store up to your quota limit on that volume.
For this question, Hlang could either save the files to another location on a different volume or delete some of his older files to free up some disk space in his home directory.
Encrypting a file does not conceal ownership of the file, so it would still be charged against your disk quota.
The wording on "B" is tricky. You cannot directly assign ownership of your files to another user. However, you can assign the "Take Ownership" permission for your files to another user. Then that user can go in and Take Ownership of the files you've allowed him to take ownership of. (how's that for a tongue twister  ). When that user takes ownership of the files, Hlang would recover the amount of disk space those files occupied. | |

Sorry about any confusion.
