Configuring Advanced Windows Server 2012 Services — Question 97

Your network contains an Active Directory domain named adatum.com. The domain contains two sites named Site1 and Site2 and two domain controllers named
DC1 and DC2. DC1 is located in Site1 and DC2 is located in Site2.
You install an additional domain controller named DC3 in Site1 and you ship DC3 to Site2.
A technician connects DC3 to Site2.
You discover that users in Site2 are authenticated only by DC2.
You need to ensure that the users in Site2 are authenticated by both DC2 and DC3.
What should you do?

Answer options

• A. In Active Directory Users and Computers, configure the msDS-PrimaryComputer attribute for DC3.
• B. In Active Directory Users and Computers, configure the msDS-Site-Affinity attribute for DC3.
• C. From Active Directory Sites and Services, move DC3.
• D. From Active Directory Sites and Services, modify the site link between Site1 and Site2.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because moving DC3 to the appropriate site in Active Directory Sites and Services allows it to function correctly within Site2, enabling user authentication from both DC2 and DC3. Options A and B are not relevant to the site configuration and would not resolve the authentication issue. Option D does not directly address the problem of DC3's site assignment.
