Microsoft Administering Windows Server Exam FAQ: What Candidates Ask Most

The AZ-802 exam is the official Microsoft exam behind the Microsoft Certified: Windows Server Hybrid Administrator Associate certification, validating the skills measured by the Microsoft Administering Windows Server credential. It sits at the Associate level of the Microsoft certification program. It also connects to AZ-800, AZ-801, so the knowledge you build here carries over to those tracks as well.

The AZ-802 exam contains 40-60 questions to be completed within 120-150. Before exam day, divide the available time by the question count to work out a comfortable per-question pace, and mark any item that eats into it so you can return later instead of getting stuck. Timed sessions in the PrepAwayETE test engines make that pacing automatic — run at least two full-length mock exams under the clock so time pressure never becomes the reason you drop points.

The passing score for the AZ-802 exam is 700 (on a scale of 1000), and the official registration fee is $165 USD. Retakes are not discounted — every new attempt means paying the full fee again — so it pays to measure yourself before you book. Work through the 530 practice questions on PrepAwayETE, sit a timed practice test, and schedule your exam only when your scores are consistently comfortable. That simple habit is the cheapest exam strategy there is.

No mandatory prerequisites; recommended 2+ years of experience administering Windows Server in hybrid environments Requirements can change when Microsoft revises its certification program, so confirm the current eligibility rules on the official exam page before you register.

The Microsoft Administering Windows Server exam blueprint is organized into 7 domains. The first three are:

  • Deploy and manage Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) in on-premises and cloud environments — 20% of the exam
  • Implement high availability and disaster recovery — 5% of the exam
  • Implement and manage an on-premises and hybrid networking infrastructure — 15% of the exam

For the complete domain-by-domain breakdown, scroll up to the full exam topics outline above and use it to plan how you distribute your study time.

Microsoft Administering Windows Server Sample Questions:

Your network contains an Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) domain. The domain contains servers that run Windows Server as shown in the following table.
Server1 has the connection security rules shown in the following table.
Server2 has the connection security rules shown in the following table.

Correct Answer:


Explanation:
Server1 can communicate with Server2 successfully: Yes. Server2 can communicate with Server3 successfully: Yes. Server3 can communicate with Server2 successfully: Yes.
A connection security rule set to Require authentication blocks the connection outright if authentication cannot be completed, whereas a rule set to Request authentication always lets the connection proceed even when authentication fails, since it only attempts protection and never enforces it. Rule11 on Server1 requires computer authentication using NTLMv2 specifically for traffic between its own /24 subnet and Server2 ' s address, and this communication succeeds because Server2 is configured with a matching, compatible authentication rule for that exact traffic pattern, so Server1 and Server2 can both authenticate successfully.
Traffic between Server2 and Server3 instead falls under Server1 ' s and Server2 ' s broader Rule12, which covers the wider 172.16.0.0/16 range in Request mode rather than the narrow Require-mode Rule11. Because connection security rules never block traffic on their own -- a separate Windows Defender Firewall rule is what actually permits or blocks a connection -- and Request mode tolerates a peer that cannot or does not authenticate at all, communication between Server2 and Server3 succeeds in both directions even though Server3 has no connection security rule of its own configured to match against.

You have an Azure virtual machine named VM1 that runs Windows Server. VM1 has boot diagnostics configured to use a managed storage account.
You are troubleshooting connectivity issue on VM1.
You need to run a PowerShell cmdlet on VM1 by using the Azure Serial Console.
Which four actions should you perform in sequence? To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.

Reveal Solution  Discussion  0

Correct Answer:


Explanation:
1. From the Azure portal, configure the Boot diagnostics settings for VM1 to use a custom storage account. 2.
From the Azure portal, open the Serial console blade of VM1. 3. From the Serial console, run cmd. 4. From the Serial console, run ch -si 1 and sign in by using a local account.
Accessing the Serial Console requires the boot diagnostics storage account to be a customer-managed (custom) storage account rather than the opaque, platform-managed option, because the account viewing the console needs assignable role access, including key-based access, to a storage account that actually exists as a visible resource in the customer ' s own subscription; a managed storage account cannot be assigned that access, so VM1 ' s boot diagnostics settings must first be reconfigured to use a custom storage account. Once that is done, the Serial console blade for VM1 can be opened from the Azure portal, dropping into the SAC > prompt. From there, typing cmd creates a new command-prompt channel, and running ch -si 1 switches to and activates that specific channel, at which point the console prompts for sign-in using a local administrator account on VM1. Only after signing in through that channel can an administrator launch powershell.exe and run the desired cmdlet. Run Command and just-in-time VM access are alternative, unrelated management and network-access features that play no part in this particular Serial Console workflow.

You have an Azure subscription. The subscription contains 100 virtual machines that run Windows Server
2025. You plan to implement data collection rules (DCRs) in Azure Monitor to collect Application logs and System logs from the virtual machines. You need to filter the events collected based on custom criteria.
Which query language should you use?

  • A. KQL
  • B. XPath

Correct Answer: B  🗳️

Explanation: Only visible for PrepAwayETE members. You can sign-up / login (it's free).

You have a Hyper-V failover cluster named Cluster1 at a main datacenter. Cluster1 contains two nodes that have the Hyper-V server role installed. Cluster1 hosts 10 highly available virtual machines. You have a cluster named Cluster2 in a disaster recovery site. Cluster2 contains two nodes that have the Hyper-V server role installed. You plan to use Hyper-V Replica to replicate the virtual machines from Cluster1 to Cluster2.
What should you do? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Reveal Solution  Discussion  0

Correct Answer:


Explanation:
Cluster role to create on Cluster2: Hyper-V Replica Broker. Replication target name to specify: The name of the Hyper-V Replica Broker.
When Hyper-V Replica is used with a clustered Hyper-V host as either the primary or the replica site, that cluster requires a Hyper-V Replica Broker role, because the broker abstracts away which specific physical node currently owns a given replicated virtual machine, keeping replication working correctly even as VMs live-migrate or fail over between nodes within the cluster. Before enabling replication, an administrator must create this Hyper-V Replica Broker role on Cluster2 and configure its replication settings, including the authentication method, the storage location for replica virtual machine files, and which primary servers are allowed to replicate to it. When subsequently configuring replication for the virtual machines on Cluster1, the destination (replica server) must be specified using the Hyper-V Replica Broker ' s own client access point name -- not the name of an individual physical node in Cluster2 -- because the broker, not any single node, is what tracks current VM ownership as virtual machines move between Cluster2 ' s nodes. Specifying an individual node name instead would break replication and failover as soon as a VM ' s ownership moved to a different node in Cluster2.

You have an Azure subscription. The subscription contains two virtual machines named VM1 and VM2 that run Windows Server. You need to use Azure Network Watcher to meet the following requirements;
* Identify security rules that prevent network traffic from reaching VM1.
* Identify the source region of packets sent to VM2.
What should you use for each requirement? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Reveal Solution  Discussion  0

Correct Answer:


Explanation:
Identify security rules that prevent network traffic from reaching VM1: IP flow verify. Identify the source region of packets sent to VM2: Traffic Analytics.
IP flow verify, a diagnostic capability within Azure Network Watcher, tests a specific traffic flow described by its source, destination, port, and protocol against the effective network security group rules applied to a virtual machine ' s network interface, and it reports back exactly which security rule allows or denies that packet. This makes it the correct tool for pinpointing why network traffic is being prevented from reaching VM1, since it identifies the specific rule responsible for the block rather than just confirming that a block exists. Traffic Analytics, a Network Watcher capability built on top of NSG flow logs, aggregates and visualizes network traffic patterns over time, including geographic and topology information about where traffic is coming from, which makes it the appropriate tool for identifying the source region of packets sent to VM2. Neither capability can substitute for the other: IP flow verify does not report traffic geography, and Traffic Analytics does not perform a rule-by-rule evaluation of a specific flow, so each requirement maps to exactly one of these two Network Watcher tools.
