Explanation

The answer is No (B) - this solution does not meet the goal. Active Directory Sites and Services is used to manage the physical topology of an AD DS deployment: sites, site links, subnets, and replication connections. Right-clicking Default-First-Site-Name shows site properties, not FSMO role holders. To identify the PDC Emulator, the correct methods are: (1) In Active Directory Users and Computers, right-click the domain name and select 'Operations Masters'; (2) Run 'netdom query fsmo' from the command line; (3) Use PowerShell: 'Get-ADDomain | Select-Object PDCEmulator'; (4) In Active Directory Domains and Trusts, right-click the domain root. Sites and Services simply has no interface for viewing FSMO role assignments.
