Explanation
In order to create an Active Directory snapshot you need to use the NTDSUTIL command. NTDSUTIL is built into Windows Server 2008. It is available if you have the Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) server role or the AD LDS server role installed. Reference: A full backup will give you a backup of the entire server, including the AD DS database file (ntds.dit), but this is much more than is needed. Similarly, wbadmin will not allow us to just get a snapshot of AD DS. Microsoft 70-648 Exam Ldp is used to connect to AD DS databases and snapshots and run code against them, but does not create snapshots.
