SharePoint Interview Question


1. What is SharePoint? 
 Microsoft SharePoint is an enterprise collaboration and content management platform which enables users to connect each other and share the information across an organization. Indirectly this solves the problems in an organization to share the documents, security, business process, maintaining data etc. SharePoint 2010 has rich UI and plenty of features.

2. What is the Farm in SharePoint?
1. Farm is a collection of SharePoint servers having the same configuration database. 
2. Configuration DB stores all the required information to run the farm. 
3. Each farm is administered through a central administration 
4. There is only one configuration database per farm.

3. What is web Application in SharePoint?
1. In SharePoint Web Application is an IIS website. 
2. From Central Admin we can create the web application. Each web application is associated with one IIS web site. 
3. Once the web application is created, we can extend the web application in different zones. 
4. For each web application, content database is created.

4. What is a site collection in SharePoint?
1. A site collection is a set of web sites. 
2. Every site collection has top-level site, created when the site collection is created. 
3. There might be multiple site collections in web application and each site collection may have a multiple child sites.

5. What is web part?and type
Web Parts are the fundamental building blocks for Share Point user interface, and with them we can build and integrate many different types of applications. In share point also be create custom web part using .ascx control
steps create custom web part
1.create web part project copied .ascx control and build application. place .dll file in GAC .reset IIS.
2.go 12 hive _layout folder create folder past your .ascx control
3.go inetpub ->wwwroot->wss->open Your site ->web con fig->create safe control write assembly information of web part application
4.open sharepoint site ->site action-site editing->Galleries ->web part->new Add your web part.
follow few web part in WSS 3.0
 Content Editor Web Part ,Data View Web Part ,List View Web Part ,Image Web Part ,Members Web Part ,Page Viewer Web Part

6. What is Sandbox solution?
When user writing custom code then it is not trusted its failure causes on entire site. So the sandbox solution concept is used. In that case program is only written for particular site & solution is uploaded in the same site. The solution size limit is decided at the time of site creation & if size increases or code showing bad performance then it is easy to administrator to stop the working of solution.

7. What is the difference between Sandbox solution & farm solution?
We can create sandbox solution for particular site but not for the entire site collection or farm. It is not applicable for farm solution. There are some restrictions while creating the sandbox solution.

8. What is Ghosted and Unghosted Page in SharePoint?
A ghosted page is a page in SharePoint website which is not stored in the database instead it reference to a file which exists in the server’s file system. These reference files are common for all the website/site collection within that SharePoint server, i.e., if you modify a reference file then that change will reflect in all the websites/site collections within that SharePoint server automatically. So we can say these reference files are used as template.

The default master page of SharePoint “default.master” is a well known example of ghosted page. “default.master” page is located in the directory "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\Global". If you do some changes in the “default.master” then this change will automatically reflect in all the websites within that SharePoint server.

To create a new site in SharePoint, a site template is used. Site template contains description of all the pages, webparts within the pages, master page used, custom lists, etc. for the web site to be created. You can define a page ghostable in the “onet.xml” file of the site template.

Unghosted Page in SharePoint

All the pages in a SharePoint website which are stored in the content database are referred as unghosted pages. All the unghosted pages are specific to that SharePoint website only, i.e., changes done in an unghosted pages will not reflect in other websites within that SharePoint server.
If a new website is created with a site template which contains a page defined as “unghostable” in the “onet.xml”, then that page will be stored in the content database of new website created and will not reference to the page available in the site template folder.

If a ghosted page is modified in the SharePoint designer, it will become unghosted. For example if a master page is customized in SharePoint Designer, SharePoint stores a modified version of the master page in the content database and also it breaks the reference to the “default.master” file on the “C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\Global“

 

 

9. What is the difference between Site Definition and Site template?

1. To create or use site definition you need server admin access, but site template can install from web UI by site owners. 
2. Site definition supports feature stapling, but for site template additional features must be activated in gallery.
 
3. Site definitions are stored in hard disk, but site templates are stored in content DB.
 
4. Site definition can provision multiple webs, but site templates for single web only.
 
5. Creating site definition is relatively complex then site template creation.


10.What is BDC and how it is differ from BCS?

BDC (Business Data Catalogue) is use to connect an external database and view it in share point. 
BCS (Business connectivity Services) is new in SharePoint2010. Using BDC one can only read from external Database, but using BCS one can read and write into the external Database.


11.What is Web Part life Cycle?
Web Part Life Cycle starts with, OnInit- to configure the webpart, 
OnLoad- to load add controls, CreateChildControls- It is use to create controls and set its property. 
LoadViewState- The view state of the web part is populated over here. 
OnPreRender- it is use to change the web part properties. 
RenterContents- it generate the output in html. 
OnUnLoad- to unload the web part, Dispose- to free the memory.

12.Explain the Share Point Architecture.?
Having 3 layers, like 3 tire architecture 
1. WFE <Front End Web Server>  2. Application Layer  3. Data base Layer 
<!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]-->
<!--[endif]-->
1. WFE :- 
Here we have share point Installed. 
We have 12-hive structure & virtual drives. 
Here IIS web sites are hosted. 
Here servers are clustered on & are in synch. 

2. Application Lay er:- 
Share Point provides different services. 
This layer provides those services, like my site hosting, user profile & searching etc. 
One server can be dedicated to particular service depend upon the scalability. 

3. Data Base Layer :- 
Here we have SQL server installed. 
Here content DB is hosted. 
For moss 2007, it is SQL server 2005. For Share Point 2010, it is SQL server 2008. 
Here servers are clustered on & are in synch. 

* Every layer has load balancer for control the traffic

<!--[if !supportLists]-->13.How to deploy wsp ?
In Command prompt, navigate to the 12-hive bin folder, then write the command to add the solution i.e.
Stsadm -o addsolution -filename filelocation 

Then go to “central administration -> operations” under “global configuration” there is “solution management” click on that.

Then click on “wsp file name”, and then click on “deploy solution” for deploy it, for retrieve click on “retrieve solution”, for remove it click on “remove solution” after retrieve it.


<!--[if !supportLists]-->14.Client Object Model vs Server Object Model in SharePoint 2010 ?
Using Client Object Model we can access the data from the system where SharePoint server is not installed on the machine via Web Services, API , JavaScript etc.

Whereas In Server Object Model is like a Production Server Environment to access the data where share point server installed on the machine

15.Discuss the differences between Library vs List ?
The major differences between both are:
Library is used to store the document whereas Lists are the container of similar items in the form of rows and columns.
In Library you can create core document like Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. But in List You cannot create document, instead of that you can attach document in a particular List.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->16.Mention the types of authentications available for SharePoint 2010 ?
The types of authentications that are available for SharePoint 2010 are of 3 types.
They are:
1) Claims Authentication,  2) Windows Authentication,  3) Forms-based Authentication

<!--[if !supportLists]-->17.Explain the difference between Classic mode authentication and Claims-based authentication ?
Classic authentication will supports NT authentication types like Kerberos, NTLM, Basic, Digest, and anonymous.
Claims based authentication uses claims identities against a trusted identity provider.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->18.What is meant by User Profile service?
The User Profile Service will allows you for configuring and managing User profile properties, Audiences, Profile synchronization settings, organization browsing and management settings, and My Site settings.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->20.What is meant by Secure Store Service (SSS) ?
Secure Store Service is nothing but a secure database for storing credentials that are associated with application IDs.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->21.Mention some of the OOB features of SharePoint that aid with governance of an environment?
Some of the OOB features of SharePoint that aid with governance of an environment are discussed as folows:

1) Site templates – This feature is used for consistent branding, site structure, and layout which can enforce a set of customizations that are applied to a site definition.
2) Quotas – This will limits the amount of storage a site collection can use.
3) Locks - This feature will prevent users from either adding content to a site collection or using the site collection.
4) Web application permissions and policies – This feature is used for comprehensive security settings that apply to all users and groups for all site collections within a Web application.
5) Self-service site creation - This feature will enables the users to create their own site collections, thus must be incorporated into a governance scheme.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->22.What are event receivers or event Handlers in SharePoint ?
Event Receivers or Event handlers are created to handle the basic actions or events against an item,list\library, a web or a site.
There are two kinds of events in sharepoint. They are:
1) Synchronous Events: Like Itemadding (not added yet), Uploading (document not uploaded yet) etc.
2) Asynchronous Events: ItemAdded (after item is added), Uploaded(after a document is uploaded)

Events receivers can be written to override an event.
For e.g. ItemAdded event to change the name of an Item once it is added.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->23.What is meant by stsadm ?
It is a Command-line tool used for administration of Office SharePoint 2007 (or MOSS 2007) servers and sites. Basic operations like adding a solution or installing activating and feature is usually done by stsadm

<!--[if !supportLists]-->24.Where is stsadm located ?
The stsadm is located in the below given path.
C:\Program Files\Common Files\ shared\web server extensions\12\bin

<!--[if !supportLists]-->25.What are Site Columns ?
Site columns are pre-defined data columns which are re-used in various content types. A Content type is usually a collection of site columns.
For e.g. you can create a site column "Category" with a choice datatype along with the pre-defined values "It","Hr". This column then can be added to any content type in your list or library

<!--[if !supportLists]-->26.What is meant by a Site definition ?
A Site definition is a collection of Files. The files are such as ONET.XML which defines the Site template.
For e.g. Team Sites used to create a Site in SharePoit. All the out-of-box site Templates like Blog,Wiki,Team Site etc can be found in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\

<!--[if !supportLists]-->27.Why we use the properties.current.web instead of SPContext.Current.web in event receiver?
When we deploy project from Visual studio then we can use the SPContext.Current.web but when we use the powershell to activate or deactive the feature then we have to use properties.current.web beacuse there is no access of browser here.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->28.What is SharePoint Delegate Control?
a. With the help of delegate control, we can take any OOB control of SharePoint and replace with our custom control without any modification in the SharePoint page. So that new custom control overrides the existing one. 

b. So the delegate control provide one of the option to add control (either server control or user control) on a SharePoint page. 
c. This is one of the important features of SharePoint, introduced in WSS v3 and so in MOSS 2007.
d. For example : In master page SearchBox control is included as 
<SharePoint:DelegateControl runat="server" ControlId="SmallSearchInputBox" /> 
e. The above lines instantiate the delegate control object. 
f. This delegate control object uses features to locate the control which is specified in ControlId. So there must be the features (it includes feature at any scope) which creates and deploys the Small Search Input Box control.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->29.What are the Methods of Backup and Recovery in SharePoint 2010?
Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 provides a broad range of levels for performing backups, including the entire farm, farm configuration information, site collections, sub sites or lists.

SharePoint Server 2010 uses two different tools to configure backup and recovery.
1. Central Administration: Central Administration provides a user interface where SharePoint Administrators will be prompted via menu structures to select the information that needs to be backed up.
2. Windows PowerShell: Windows PowerShell is a command line tool that provides SharePoint administrators a way to perform backup and recovery with additional options such as file compression or working with SQL snapshots.

Listed below are a few of the benefits available when working with Windows PowerShell

Windows PowerShell scripts can be developed and scheduled (with Windows Task Scheduler), whereas Central Administration is used for single-use backups and restores.

Windows PowerShell has the advantage of running against SQL snapshots instead of the production database. One of the parameters of the Windows PowerShell command will cause a SQL snapshot to be generated, and then Windows PowerShell will run the action against the snapshot instead of the production database. This will reduce the resource impact of the backup operation on the production environment.

With Windows PowerShell, SharePoint administrators will have more granular control of options for the backup or restore.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->30.What is a workflow?
Workflow is the definition, execution and automation of business processes where tasks, information or documents are passed from one participant to another for action, according to a set of procedural rules.
Organizations use workflows to coordinate tasks between people and synchronize data between systems, with the ultimate goal of improving organizational efficiency, responsiveness and profitability.
Workflows automate the flow of employee tasks and activities, reducing the time the process took to complete as well as potential errors caused by human interaction.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->31.What is the difference between a Site Definition and a Site Template?
Site Definitions are stored on the hard drive of the SharePoint front end servers. They are used by the SharePoint application to generate the sites users can create. Site Templates are created by users as a copy of a site they have configured and modified so that they do not have to recreate lists, libraries, views and columns every time they need a new instance of a site.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->32.What are content types? 
A content type is a flexible and reusable WSS type definition (or we can a template) that defines the columns and behavior for an item in a list or a document in a document library. For example, you can create a content type for a leave approval document with a unique set of columns, an event handler, and its own document template and attach it with a document library/libraries.Can a content type have receivers associated with it?
Yes, a content type can have an event receiver associated with it, either inheriting from the SPListEventReciever base class for list level events, or inheriting from the SPItemEventReciever base class. Whenever the content type is instantiated, it will be subject to the event receivers that are associated with it.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->33.What is a document library in SharePoint? 
A document library in SharePoint is where you upload your main or core documents. Document Library is consist of a row and column view with links to the documents, When the document is updated and so is the link is created on your site. You can also track metadata of your documents. Meta data in SharePoint is consisting of document properties.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->34.What is the difference between a document library and a form library in SharePoint?

* Web Designer - Can create lists and document libraries and customize pages in the Web site.
* Administrator - Has full control of the Web site.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->37.How do I make my site non-restricted (Available for anonymous users without Authentication) in SharePoint? 
If you want your site to have anonymous access enabled (i.e., you want to treat it like any site on the Internet that does not ask you to provide a user name and password to see the content of the site),
If you want to make your SharePoint website available on Internet and anybody can use it than you can follow below steps:
1) Log-in as an administrator
2) Click on site settings
3) Click on Go to Site Administration
4) Click on Manage anonymous access
5) Choose one of the three conditions on what Anonymous users can access:** Entire Web site** Lists and libraries** Nothing Default condition is nothing; your site has restricted access.
The default conditions allow you to create a secure site for your Web site.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->38.What is a Field Control?
Field controls are simple ASP.NET 2.0 server controls that provide the basic field functionality of SharePoint. They provide basic general functionality such as displaying or editing list data as it appears on SharePoint list pages.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->39.Which are default master pages in Sharepoint 2010?

<!--[if !supportLists]-->40.What is a SharePoint Feature? What files are used to define a feature? 
A SharePoint Feature is a functional component that can be activated and deactivate at various scopes throughout a SharePoint instances, scope of which are defined as
1. Farm level 2. Web Application level 3. Site level 4. Web level
Features have their own receiver architecture, which allow you to trap events such as when a feature is Installing, Uninstalling, Activated, or Deactivated.

The element types that can be defined by a feature include
Menu commands, link commands, page templates, page instances, list definitions, list instances,
Event handlers and workflows.

The two files that are used to define a feature are the feature.xml and manifest file(elements.xml). The feature XML file defines the actual feature and will make SharePoint aware of the installed feature. The manifest file contains details about the feature such as functionality.

CAML is the collaborative application markup language. This is the XML-based language used to customize and to develop the SharePoint based sites and features.

<!--[if !supportLists]-->71.How do you configure outgoing E-mail?
It is recommended that you set up a Local SMTP Virtual Server on your share point box and configure it to relay to your normal domain. 

This will not only provide a natural queuing mechanism which would be highly preferred, but it will also provide you with what you need to set up incoming email as well as outgoing. 

(DW) 

More details on this ... 

If you are looking to use your corporate email to read outbound email--you'll need to go to the SMTP Virtual server and set up a new domain in it. Click on domains and make a new remote domain. Type in the name of your corporate email (for me it would be Microsoft.com). 

Once it's made, get the properties on it and configure the smart host to be the name of your actual mail server (exchange or whatever). This will cause the SMTP Virtual Server to relay mail addressed to your remote domain to your corporate email server. 

If that server only accepts mail from authenticated sources, you'll have to configure the outbound security on the remote domain as well as the smart host. 

(DW) 

Note to the usual need to make sure that Port 25 is not blocked by an A-V software (McAfee being the typical culprit)
