Identity with Windows Server 2016 — Question 48
Your network contains an Active Directory domain.
Users do not have administrative privileges to their client computer.
You modify a computer setting in a Group Policy object (GPO).
You need to ensure that the setting is applied to five client computers as soon as possible.
What should you do?
Answer options
- A. From each client computer, run the gpresult.exe command and specify the /r parameter.
- B. From a domain controller, run the gpupdate.exe command and specify the Force parameter.
- C. From a domain controller, run the Invoke-GPUpdate cmdlet.
- D. From each client computer, run the Get-Gpo cmdlet and specify the ג€"all parameter.
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is C, as the Invoke-GPUpdate cmdlet allows you to remotely refresh Group Policy settings on specified computers immediately from a domain controller. Option A is incorrect because gpresult.exe only reports on Group Policy settings and does not apply them. Option B will update the policy but does not target specific computers immediately as effectively as option C. Option D is not valid for applying settings; it is used for retrieving GPO information.
