What’s New in Microsoft SharePoint 2010
4. You are a SharePoint administrator of a Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 environ-
ment, and you have been tasked by your CIO to investigate the feasibility of upgrading to
64-bit SharePoint Server 2010. As part of your investigation, you look into the security
advantages of upgrading to a 64-bit hardware and software platform. Which of the follow-
ing do you report as advantages? (Choose all that apply.)
A. Windows Server 2008 offers greater buffer overflow protection because the first
parameters of a procedure call are passed in buffers.
B. Windows Server 2008 offers greater buffer overflow protection because the first
parameters of a procedure call are passed in registers.
C. 64-bit processors include hardware support for data execution prevention (DEP) to
prevent any malicious executables from running.
D. Microsoft Patch Guard prevents any kernel mode drivers in Microsoft-only applica-
tions from extending or replacing kernel services in Windows Server 2008.
5. You are a SharePoint administrator of a Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 environ-
ment, and you have been tasked by your CIO to investigate the feasibility of upgrading to
SharePoint 2010. You discover that 64-bit Windows Server 2008 includes Windows and
Windows 64-bit (WOW64) translation layer, which emulates a 32-bit operating system,
allowing a mixed 32-bit/64-bit environment to coexist. One of your interns asks about the
possibility of mixing 32-bit Windows Server 2008 machines with their 64-bit counterparts
in a SharePoint Server 2010 upgrade. What is true about this suggestion?
A. Although you cannot install SharePoint Server 2010 on a 32-bit Windows Server 2008
machine, you can use 32-bit SQL Server 2005 and 2008 for database services.
B. Although you cannot install SharePoint Server 2010 on a 32-bit Windows Server 2008
machine, you can use 32-bit SQL Server 2008 for database services, but not 32-bit SQL
Server 2005.
C. You cannot install SharePoint Server 2010 on a 32-bit Windows Server 2008 machine,
and you must use 64-bit SQL Server 2005 or 2008 for database services.
D. You cannot install SharePoint Server 2010 on a 32-bit Windows Server 2008 machine,
and you must use only 64-bit SQL Server 2008 for database services.
6. You are the CIO for an enterprise-level company. You have been asked to prepare a report
on the feasibility of upgrading your SharePoint system to 64-bit hardware and software
by the CEO. As part of the task of preparing a report, you run across information stating
that not all 64-bit processors are compatible with SharePoint Server 2010. Of the following
options, which processor type is to be avoided?
A. 64-bit Intel Xeon processor w/2M
B. AMD Athlon 64 3500 processor
C. 64-bit Intel Itanium processor
D. AMD Sempron 3000 64-bit processor
