You have a domain controller named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2008 R2. You need to determine the size of the Active Directory database on Server1. What should you do?
The correct answer is C. From Windows Explorer, view the properties of the %systemroot%\ntds\ntds.ditfile. The AD database is stored in the file %systemroot%\ntds\ntds.dit We just need to see how large this file is in Windows Explorer to get an idea of how much disk space it is using.

The %systemroot%\sysvol\domain folder contains lots of things that are replicated for the domain, but this is also a public, distributed share and would not hold something as dear as the AD The Active Directory service Sizer tool lets you estimate the hardware required for deploying Active Directory in an organization based on the organization's profile, domain information and The AD Diagnostics DCS will give us performance information for AD, and if it did poorly that might hint to us that our database is getting large, but it would not necessarily report the size of
