Which of the following options would you choose to plan a recovery strategy for Active Directory objects

You are an Enterprise administrator for contoso.com. The corporate network of the company consists of a single Active Directory domain. All the servers in the domain run Windows Server 2008 and all client computers run Windows Vista.

The domain contains three domain controllers for which a full backup is performed each day. Which of the following options would you choose to plan a recovery strategy for Active Directory objects that allow objects in a backup to be compared to objects in the live Active Directory database in the minimum administrative effort? (Select two. Each correct answer will present a part of the solution.)

A.
Restore the backup to a domain controller in a test forest.

B.
Restore the backup to an alternate location.

C.
Restore the backup to the original location.

D.
Mount the database using the Active Directory Database Mounting Tool (Dsamain.exe).

E.
Use the Activate Directory Installation wizard to create a new domain controller.

F.
Create a snapshot using the Active Directory Service Utilities (Ntdsutil.exe).

Explanation:

To plan a recovery strategy for Active Directory objects, you need to restore the backup to an alternate location. Mount the database using the Active Directory Database Mounting Tool (Dsamain.exe).

The Active Directory database mounting tool (Dsamain.exe) can improve recovery processes for your organizations by providing a means to compare data as it exists in snapshots that are taken at different times so that you can better decide which data to restore after data loss. This eliminates the need to restore multiple backups to compare the ActiveDirectory data that they contain. You need to restore the backup to an alternate location so that you can compare the data.
