  1. B-Art says:

    I Disagree. Backup Operators is a local (built-in) group on EACH server.
    This means NO AD groups involved. The user will only be able to backup Server 1.
    The answer must be B.

        For the 70-417 exam, remember that Backup Operators have more rights than just backing up a system. They can back up, restore, shutdown the system, log on locally, and access the computer from the network. If you want to assign a user just a few of those privileges, you should assign that user those rights through Local Computer Policy or Group Policy instead of adding her to the Backup Operators group.

    The question explicity asks “You need to ensure that User1 can use Windows Server Backup to back up Server1”, if you aren’t member of Administrators or Backup Operator, you’re not able to use it.

    The answer must be A.

    B is definitely the right answer.
