Partition Recovery Course - LDM Recovery Test

Location of LDM database can be found in PRIVHEAD

true
false

When recovering LDM manually, you need VBLK blocks to

determine filesystem type
determine the location of MBR
determine Logical Disk Start
link various LDM objects

All sector addresses throughout LDM metadata are measured from the beginning of the disk

true
false

Check what you need to get from VBLK blocks describing a partition when recovering LDM

partition start LBA
disk object ID
this object ID
parent component ID

Check what you need to get from VBLK blocks describing a component when recovering LDM

partition start LBA
parent volume ID
this object ID
disk object ID

What you need to get from VBLK blocks describing a volume when recovering LDM?

partition start LBA
this object ID
disk object ID
parent volume ID

Based on what a partition is linked with a disk?

disk GUID stored in disk object matches parent component ID stored in partition object
disk object ID stored in partition object matches disk GUID stored in PRIVHEAD
disk object ID stored in partition object matches this object ID stored in disk object

Where is LDM database located on a disk with MBR?

at the end of the disk
anywhere but after PRIVHEAD
at the beginning of the disk

Based on what a component is linked with a volume?

this object ID stored in component object matches this object ID stored in volume object
parent volume ID stored in component object matches this object ID stored in volume object
component is not linked with volume

In what units offsets in PIVHEAD are measured?

in 512-byte sectors
in bytes
in clusters
in physical sectors

We have a mailing list in which we talk about interesting cases we encounter and share some tips and tricks.
