Question

Your network contains an Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) domain. The domain contains 20 Active Directory sites. All user management is performed from a central site. You add users to a group. You discover that group changes do NOT appear on a domain controller in a remote site. You need to identify whether the group changes appear on other domain controllers. What should you use?

Why each option

To identify whether Active Directory group changes are replicating to other domain controllers, especially when a remote site isn't receiving updates, the Active Directory Replication Status Tool should be used.

AMicrosoft Support and Recovery Assistant

The Microsoft Support and Recovery Assistant is a general-purpose troubleshooting tool for various Microsoft products, but it is not specialized for detailed Active Directory replication status monitoring across an entire domain.

BFile Replication Service (FRS) Status Viewer

File Replication Service (FRS) Status Viewer is for monitoring the older FRS replication, which has been superseded by Distributed File System Replication (DFSR) for SYSVOL replication in modern Active Directory environments, and it is not for general AD object replication.

CActive Directory Replication Status ToolCorrect

The Active Directory Replication Status Tool (ADReplStatus) is specifically designed to monitor the replication health of Active Directory Domain Services across all domain controllers in a forest. It provides a comprehensive view of replication status, identifies replication failures, and helps pinpoint where group changes are or are not appearing.

DActive Directory Sites and Services

Active Directory Sites and Services is used to configure replication topology, sites, and subnets, but it does not provide a real-time monitoring or status view of actual replication synchronization and object changes across domain controllers.
