Task 9

You plan to create group managed service accounts (gMSAs).

You need to configure the domain to support the creation of gMSAs.

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

To configure the domain to support the creation of gMSAs, you need to perform the following steps:

On a domain controller or a computer that has the Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT) installed, open PowerShell as an administrator and run the following command to install the Active Directory module:

Install-WindowsFeature -Name RSAT-AD-PowerShell

Run the following command to create a Key Distribution Service (KDS) root key, which is required for generating passwords for gMSAs. You only need to do this once per domain:

Add-KdsRootKey -EffectiveImmediately

Wait for at least 10 hours for the KDS root key to replicate to all domain controllers in the domain. Alternatively, you can use the-EffectiveTimeparameter to specify a past date and time for the KDS root key, but this is not recommended for security reasons. For more information, seeAdd-KdsRootKey.

After the KDS root key is replicated, you can create and configure gMSAs using theNew-ADServiceAccountandSet-ADServiceAccountcmdlets. For more information, seeCreate a gMSAandConfigure a gMSA.

I vaguely remember that we might need to use PowerShell to create the gMSA, similar to what we practiced in the lab.

I think we need to ensure that the domain functional level is at least Windows Server 2012, but I can't recall if there are other requirements.

I remember we had a practice question about configuring Active Directory for gMSAs, but I'm not sure if it was about the specific permissions needed.

This looks manageable. I'll take my time, read the question carefully, and methodically work through the configuration steps. Shouldn't be too difficult if I stay focused.

Okay, let me think this through. I'll need to enable the necessary features and permissions in the domain. Hopefully the instructions are clear, but I may need to refer to the documentation just to be safe.

Based on my understanding of security roles, I believe the information system auditor is the one who inspects the security policies and procedures.
