Configuring Advanced Windows Server 2012 Services — Question 39

You are employed as a network administrator at contoso.com.
Contoso.com has a single Active Directory domain named contoso.com.
All servers on the Contoso.com network have Windows Server 2012 R2 installed.
Contoso.com has two servers, named server1 and server2 which are configured in a two-node fail over cluster.
You are currently configuration the quorum settings for the cluster.
You want to make use of a quorum mode that allows each node to vote if it is available and in communication.
Which of the following is the mode you should use?

Answer options

• A. Node Majority
• B. Node and Disk Majority
• C. Node and File Share Majority
• D. No Majority: Disk Only

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Node Majority because it allows each node in the cluster to participate in the voting process, which is essential for maintaining availability. Node and Disk Majority and Node and File Share Majority require additional components that are not necessary in a two-node cluster, while No Majority: Disk Only does not support the voting mechanism needed for both nodes.
