You deploy a new Active Directory forest.
You need to ensure that you can create a group Managed Service Account (gMSA) for multiple member servers.
Solution: From Windows PowerShell on a domain controller, you run the Set-KdsConfiguration cmdlet.
Does this meet the goal?

Answer options

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because running the Set-KdsConfiguration cmdlet alone does not create a gMSA; it configures the Key Distribution Service (KDS) root key. To create a gMSA, additional steps must be taken, such as using the New-ADServiceAccount cmdlet after the KDS is configured.
