Before creating a CIFS server that will participate in a Windows Domain, what EMC best
practice should you follow?

A.
Populating DNS with the new host entries

B.
Configuring NTP synchronization with a KDC

C.
Performing a health check on the VNX system

D.
Creating placeholder entries in the Active Directory

Explanation:
There are some preparation steps needed for CIFS. Windows Active Directory uses
Kerberos authentication and it is time-sensitive. It is a best practice to configure the Data
Mover to acquire its time from a server on the network using the Network Time Protocol
(NTP) to ensure it is in time synchronization with the Key Distribution Center (KDC).
