B. Pass-through Authentication

C. Password Writeback

D. Azure AD Connect Health

E. Seamless Single Sign-On

F. Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS)

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

A (Incorrect): This syncs the password from on-premises to the cloud, not the other way around.

B (Incorrect): This validates passwords against the local AD but does not handle the "change/update" logic for cloud-initiated resets.

D (Incorrect): This is a monitoring tool for sync health, not a functional synchronization feature.

E (Incorrect): This allows users to sign in without typing passwords on corporate devices but doesn't manage password updates.

F (Incorrect): While it handles authentication, it is a complex infrastructure requirement that is not the direct solution for simple password writeback functionality.

Question 2: You are managing a Windows Server 2022 Hyper-V cluster. You need to implement a storage solution that uses locally attached drives to create highly available and scalable storage. Which technology should you deploy?

B. Storage Spaces Direct (S2D)

C. Azure File Sync

D. Multipath I/O (MPIO)

E. Internet SCSI (iSCSI) Target Server

F. Storage Replica

Correct Answer: B

Explanation:

A (Incorrect): DFS is used for folder grouping and replication across different servers, not for creating a shared block storage pool from local drives.

C (Incorrect): This caches Azure file shares on-premises; it isn't a local high-availability storage technology for clusters.

D (Incorrect): MPIO provides fault tolerance for the data path between a server and a storage array, but it doesn't create the storage itself.

E (Incorrect): This allows a server to share block storage over a network, but it doesn't inherently provide the "local-drive-to-cluster-storage" logic of S2D.

F (Incorrect): This is used for replicating volumes between servers for disaster recovery, not for building a primary storage pool.

Question 3: Which tool should I use to manage a Windows Server 2022 Core installation remotely through a web-based graphical interface without installing a full desktop experience on the server?

B. Server Manager

C. Windows Admin Center

D. Azure Portal

E. PowerShell ISE

F. Active Directory Users and Computers (ADUC)

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

A (Incorrect): Server Core does not support a full RDP desktop experience; it only provides a command-line interface via RDP.

B (Incorrect): While it can manage remote servers, it is a legacy MMC-based application, not a modern web-based interface.

D (Incorrect): The Azure Portal manages cloud resources; while it can integrate with servers via Arc, the primary web-management tool for the OS itself is Windows Admin Center.

E (Incorrect): This is a scripting environment, not a management interface for server configuration.

F (Incorrect): This is an MMC snap-in specifically for directory objects, not general server administration.
