Exam 70-412 topic 3 question 94 discussion

Actual exam question from Microsoft's 70-412

Question #: 94
Topic #: 3

A user named User1 is a member of the local Administrators group on Node1 and Node2.
User1 creates a new clustered File Server role named File1 by using the File Server for general use option.
A report is generated during the creation of File1 as shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibit button.)

File1 fails to start.
You need to ensure that you can start File1.
What should you do?

A. Log on to the domain by using the built-in Administrator for the domain, and then recreate the clustered File Server role by using the File Server for general use option.
B. Assign the user account permissions of User1 to the Servers OU.
C. Assign the computer account permissions of Cluster2 to the Servers OU.
D. Increase the value of the ms-DS-MachineAccountQuota attribute of the domain.
E. Recreate the clustered File Server role by using the File Server for scale-out application data option.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B 🗳️
Scenario: You have created a Windows Server 2012 Scale-Out File Server. The cluster, including the network and storage, pass the cluster validation test.
Everything looks and is good. You create a File Server role for application data (SOFS) but it fails to start.
Problem: Basically, the cluster needs permissions to create a computer object (for the SOFS) in the same Active Directory OU that the cluster object (Demo-
FSC1) is stored in.
Resolution: Reconfigure the permissions on the Servers OU.
In this case we assign the user account permissions of User1 to the Servers OU.

Other discussions also vote C, and one of them had this great response: "" Correct answer is C. Assign the computer account permissions of Cluster2 to the Servers OU. Please read *carefully* https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn466519.aspx The issue here is that computer object “File1” cannot be created in Servers OU, hence service cannot start. The CNO (the Cluster object, in our case Cluster2) needs full access permissions on the Servers OU to be able to create VCOs (the cluster role, in our case File1). This has got nothing to do with user1. -User1 needs full permissions on CNO (Cluster2) -CNO needs full permissions on Servers OU Tried it in lab: giving permissions to User1 will not allow the service to start. Giving permissions to Cluster2 on Servers OU (actually, only “create computer objects” permission is needed) will start File1 successfully.

Even worse, the question states that the account is LOCAL on two different machines, which makes no sense at all.

Not to mention the answers are all talking about scale-out file server while the question said file server for general use...
