Administering Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager and Cloud Services Integration — Question 4

You have a deployment of System Center Configuration Manager (Current Branch).
You need to ensure that the CIO of your company automatically receives the Antimalware overall status and history report by email every week.
What should you do first?

Answer options

• A. Configure the SMTP Settings in Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS).
• B. Create a subscription in Configuration Manager.
• C. Configure the execution account for Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS).
• D. Configure the Subscription Schedule in Configuration Manager.
• E. Configure a client settings policy.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because creating a subscription in Configuration Manager is the necessary first step to set up automated reporting. The other options, while important, either involve configurations that are not the first action needed or pertain to settings that do not directly create the email subscription for the report.
