DRAG DROP
An organization plans to deploy an Office 365 tenant. The company has two servers named SERVER1
and SERVER2. SERVER1 is a member server of the Active Directory forest that you are synchronizing.
SERVER2 is a standalone server. Both servers run Windows Server 2012.
You need to use the Windows Azure Active Directory Sync tool to provision users.
Which three actions should you perform in sequence? To answer, move the appropriate actions
from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.
Answer: 
Explanation:
That does not look correct to me…..someone please tell me why you would run directory sync on a stand alone server?
You may need some crib notes 🙂
Activate dirsync in o365
Install and run windows azure active directory sync tool on Server1
Activate all synchronised users
Should be
Activate Directory Syn
Install AD DS on the member server
Install Azure AD sync tool
We dont need another domain controller.
Activate
Install Dirsync
Synchronize
Should be
Activate
Install o server 1(It’s a member server of ad forest, and not ad itself)
Install Sync tool.
1- In O365 activate dirsync
2- On Server 1 install and run AADSync
3- Activate all synchronized users (you can’t activate an synchronized object before the synch mechanism is actually there…)
I agree with Bas, http://office365support.ca/setting-up-directory-synchronization-with-the-new-office-365/
I believe BAS is correct and great find on the article Adriano!
Can’t argue with the Link from Adriano
The provided answer is incorrect. MOC curriculum material for this course clearly states that O365 directory sync activation must happen BEFORE installing AADSync on-premises. It goes on to state that previous versions of AADSync were not permitted to run on Domain Controllers, but in the current version (circa 2014) AADSync can be installed on a DC. So we don’t need to even look at the standalone server – it’s there to trip you up because FS Proxies should be stand-alone boxes. Not required at all for AADSync.
Correct answer is:
1. activate synchronisation from O365 portal
2. Install AADSync on the DC
3. Activate users to be synced.
If you have have 2 servers in you network, one is domain joined the other one isn’t and you want to deploy DirSync:
• Activate user synchronization in Office 365
• Install Windows Azure Active Directory Sync on the domain joined computer
• Activate synchronized users
Before we can setup and use the Directory Sync software, we need to activate it in the Office 365 Admin Center
We need to download and install the Directory Sync software from the Office 365 Admin Center. This is a 64bit installer.
Directory Sync
1.From O365 admin center, activate directory sync.
2.Install AD sync tool on server1.
3.Activate all synchronized users.
