Windows Server Administration Fundamentals — Question 157
David works as a System Administrator for company Inc. The company has a Windows Server 2008 domain-based network. David uses Microsoft Deployment
Toolkit (MDT) 2010 for preparing a deployment. He wants to mount a virtual hard disk (.vhd) file offline and service it just like a Windows image file. Which of the following will David use to accomplish the task?
Answer options
- A. Windows Preinstallation Environment (Windows PE)
- B. ImageX
- C. DiskPart
- D. SYSPREP tool
Correct answer: C
Explanation
DiskPart is the correct tool for mounting and managing virtual hard disks (.vhd) offline. While Windows PE and ImageX are useful for deployment and imaging tasks, they do not provide the functionality to directly mount a .vhd file. SYSPREP is used for preparing Windows installations for imaging but is not meant for mounting virtual hard disks.
