Administering Windows Server 2012 — Question 15

Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. All domain controllers run Windows Server 2012.
You pre-create a read-only domain controller (P.QDC) account named RODC1.
You export the settings of RODC1 to a file named Filel.txt.
You need to promote RODC1 by using File1.txt.
Which tool should you use?

Answer options

• A. The Install-WindowsFeature cmdlet
• B. The Add-WindowsFeature cmdlet
• C. The Dism command
• D. The Install-ADDSDomainController cmdlet
• E. the Dcpromo command

Correct answer: E

Explanation

The correct answer is E, the Dcpromo command, as it is specifically designed for promoting domain controllers, including read-only domain controllers. The other options, such as the Install-WindowsFeature and Add-WindowsFeature cmdlets, are used for installing server roles and features but do not promote domain controllers. The Dism command is utilized for managing Windows images and is not applicable in this scenario.
