      D is wrong because that command is not able to update anytching. It ony invokes a check and only returns list of possible updates. There is not an option to download or/and install tchem.
      A – Add-CauClusterRole is able to connect to source of updates (WSUS or MS) and download and install updates, cand to it on schedule or once for example immediately. Special parameter “-StartDate Specifies the earliest date on which the Updating Run can be triggered.” can do that. https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh847235(v=wps.630).aspx

    Correct Answer: D
    If you adds the Cluster-Aware Updating (CAU) clustered role you provide self-updating functionality to a specified cluster.
    After that, using the Invoke-CauScan will performs a scan of cluster nodes for applicable updates and returns a list of the initial set of updates that would
    be applied to each node in a specified cluster.
    You can tell the cluster then to update. But this is NOT asked here. They just want to “Contact WSUS for updates”…
