AThe screen saver for the PSM local users is disabled.

BA new group called PSMShadowUsers is created.

CThe PSMAdminConnect user password is reset.

DRemote desktop services are installed.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

After the successful scripted installation of the Privileged Session Manager (PSM), one of the post-installation tasks is to disable the screen saver for the PSM local users. This is done to ensure that the PSMConnect and PSMAdminConnect users, which are created during the installation process, do not have a screen saver activated that could interfere with the operation of the PSM.

I feel like there was something about creating a group called PSMShadowUsers in one of the practice questions, but I can't recall if that's a post-installation task.
