Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain contains a domain
controller named DC1.
You need to create an Active Directory snapshot on DC1.
Which four commands should you run?
To answer, move the four appropriate commands from the list of commands to the answer area and arrange
them in the correct order.
Answer: See the explanation
Explanation:
Box 1: ntdsutil
Box 2: snapshot
Box 3: activate instance ntds
Box 4: createNote:
Create a snapshot of AD DS in Windows Server 2012 R2 by using NTDSUTIL
1 – On the domain server, open command prompt and type ntdsutil and press enter…
2- Next, type snapshot and press enter…
3 – Next, type activate instance ntds and press Enter…
4 – Next, type create (this create command is to generate a snapshot of my AD) and press Enter…
it’s equal commands snapshot\act inst ntds or act inst ntds\snapshot
MS says first activate, then snapshot:

see the Remarks:
“Before you can run the snapshot subcommand, you must run the activate instance subcommand in Ntdsutil to set an active instance”
Test in my Lab Windows Server 2012 R2
ntdsutil
snapshot
activate instance ntds
create
OK
ntdsutil
activate instance ntds
snapshot
create
OK
Both is OK
