050-696 · Question #62
Novell 050-696 Exam You've just installed a NetWare 6.5 server named WIDGET1 into the WIDGETCORP-TREE . During installation, you created three server volumes: SYS, DATA, and SHARED . What is the…
The correct answer is D. WIDGET1_SYS, WIDGET1_DATA, and WIDGET1_SHARED. NetWare 6.5 automatically names Volume objects in eDirectory using the format SERVERNAME_VOLUMENAME. For server WIDGET1 with volumes SYS, DATA, and SHARED, the resulting object names are WIDGET1_SYS, WIDGET1_DATA, and WIDGET1_SHARED.

Why each option
NetWare 6.5 automatically names Volume objects in eDirectory using the format SERVERNAME_VOLUMENAME. For server WIDGET1 with volumes SYS, DATA, and SHARED, the resulting object names are WIDGET1_SYS, WIDGET1_DATA, and WIDGET1_SHARED.
Using only the volume name (SYS, DATA, SHARED) would cause naming conflicts in an eDirectory tree where multiple servers could have volumes with identical names.
Appending a '_1' numeric suffix is not a NetWare naming convention for Volume objects and does not reflect any standard installation behavior.
The format SYS_WIDGET1 reverses the correct order - NetWare places the server name first, followed by the volume name, not the other way around.
NetWare follows the naming convention SERVERNAME_VOLUMENAME when creating Volume objects in eDirectory during server installation, so the three volumes on WIDGET1 become WIDGET1_SYS, WIDGET1_DATA, and WIDGET1_SHARED - this ensures globally unique object names across the tree even when multiple servers use identical volume names.
Appending the tree name (WIDGETCORP) to volume names is not how NetWare names Volume objects; the server name, not the tree name, is used as the qualifying prefix.
Using the tree name as a prefix (WIDGETCORP_SYS) is not the NetWare convention; the server name is the identifier used to qualify Volume objects in eDirectory.
Concept tested: NetWare eDirectory Volume object default naming convention
