Chapter 7 Domain Controller and Active Directory Management

Which of the following is not a function of the global catalog?

• Facilitates forest-wide searches

• Keeps universal group memberships

• facilitates intersite replication

• Facilitates forest-wide logons

You want to decrease users logon time at SiteA but not increase replication traffic drastically. You have 50 users at this site with one domain controller Overall your network contains 3000 user and computer accounts. What solution can decrease logon times with the least impact on replication traffic.

• Configure the domain controller as a domain naming master

• Configure the domain controller as a global catalog server

• Configure multiple connection objects between the domain controller in SiteA and a remote global catalog server.

• Enable universal group membership catching

You have an Active Directory forest of two two trees and eight domains. You haven't changed any of the operations master domain controllers. On which domain controller is the schema master?

• All domain controllers

• The last domain controller installed.

• The first domain controller in the forest root domain

• The first domain controller in each tree

Which of the following is a reason for establishing multiple sites? (Choose all that applies)

• Improving authentication efficiency

• Enabling more frequent replication

• Reducing traffic on the WAN

• Having only one IP subnet

Users of a new network subnet have been complaining that logons and other services are taking much longer than they did before being moved to the new subnet. You discover that many logons and requests for DFS resources from clients in the new subnet are being handled by domain controllers in a remote site instead of local domain controllers. What should youu do to solve this problem?

• Create a new site and add the clients and new GC server to the new site.

• Changing the IP addresses of the clients to corresponds to the network of the DCs that are handling the logons.

• Compact the Active Directory database because fragmentation must be causing latency.

• Create a new subnet and add the subnet to the site that maps to the physical location of the clients

Which of the following configurations should you avoid?

• Domain naming master and schema master on the same domain controller

• PDC emulator and RID master on the same computer

• Infrastructure master configured as a global catalog server

• Schema master configured as a global catalog server

Use authentications are taking a long time. The domain controller performing which FSMO role will most likely decrease authentication times if it's upgraded?

• RID master

• PDC emulator

• Infrastructure master

• Domain naming master

You're taking an older server performing the RID master role out of service and will be replacing it with a new server configured as a domain controller. What should you do to ensure the smoothest transition?

• Transfer the RID master role to the new domain controller, and then shut down the old server.

• Shut down the current RID master and seize the RID master role from the new domain controller

• Back up the domain controller that's currently the RID master, restore it to the new domain controller and then shut down the old RID master.

• Shut down the current RID master, and then transfer the RID master role to the new domain controller.

Which of the following is true about an RODC installation?

• A windows server running at least Windows Server 2012 is required

• The forest functional level must be at least Windows Server 2003

• Adprep /rodcprep must be run in Windows server 2008 forests

• Another RODC must be available as a replication partner.

You need to install an RODC in a new branch office and want to use an existing workgroup server running Windows Server 2012 R2 . The office is a plane flight away and is connected via a WAN. You want an employee at the branch office, Michael to do the RODC installation because he's good at working with computer and following directions. What should you do?

• Add Michael to the Domain admins group and give hmm directions on how to install the RODC

• Add Michaels domain account to the Administrators group on the server, and give him directions on how to install the RODC

• Create the computer account for the RODC in the domain controllers OU, and specify Michaels account as one that can join the computer to the domain

• Create a group policy that specifies that Michaels account can join RODCs to the domain Then use the Delegation of Control Wizard on the Domain Controllers OU
