Your network contains an Active Directory forest named contoso.com. The forest contains a
single domain. All servers runs Windows Server 2012 R2. The domain contains two domain
controllers named DC1 and DC2.Both domain controllers are virtual machines on a Hyper-V
host.
You plan to create a cloned domain controller named DC3 from an image of DC1.
You need to ensure that you can clone DC1.
Which two actions should you perform? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
Choose two.)
A.
Add the computer account of DC1 to the Cloneable Domain Controllers group.
B.
Create a DCCIoneConfig.xml file on DC1.
C.
Add the computer account of DC3 to the Cloneable Domain Controllers group.
D.
Run the Enable-AdOptionalFeaturecmdlet.
E.
Modify the contents of the DefaultDCCIoneAllowList.xml file on DC1.
Explanation:
A: Cloneable Domain Controllers Group (located in the Users container). Membership in this
group dictates whether a DC can or cannot be cloned. This group has some permissions set
on the domain head that should not be removed. Removing these permissions will cause
cloning to fail. Also, as a best practice, DCs shouldn’t be added to the group until you plan to
clone and DCs should be removed from the group once cloning is complete. Cloned DCs will
also end up in the Cloneable Domain Controllers group.
B: DCCloneConfig.xml is an XML configuration file that contains all of the settings the cloned
DC will take when it boots. This includes network settings, DNS, WINS, AD site name, new
DC name and more.
A,B
I really hate you, Saad. Stop putting your answers on EVERY question.

Only a problem if he’s putting the incorrect answers, but I see correct answer above so quit yer complaining and good luck
That is right. Just to replay the answer above is nonsense.
actually no those are the answers, here’s how the cloning is done… http://blogs.technet.com/b/keithmayer/archive/2012/08/06/safely-cloning-an-active-directory-domain-controller-with-windows-server-2012-step-by-step-ws2012-hyperv-itpro-vmware.aspx
haters gonna hate… A and B are correct thought 🙂 hate it or love it … haha
Correct and verified answers: A,B
