Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. All domain controllers run
Windows Server 2012.
You pre-create a read-only domain controller (P.QDC) account named RODC1.
You export the settings of RODC1 to a file named Filel.txt.
You need to promote RODC1 by using File1.txt.
Which tool should you use?
A.
The Install-WindowsFeature cmdlet
B.
The Add-WindowsFeature cmdlet
C.
The Dism command
D.
The Install-ADDSDomainController cmdlet
E.
the Dcpromo command
I’m copyng here the Explanation from here aiotestking of another version of dump.
http://www.aiotestking.com/microsoft/which-tool-should-you-use-282/
Explanation:
DCPromo is gone, HOWEVER, it is still used for forceremoval functions and unattend installations using
unattended files. This allows administrators the chance to get used to using powershell commands instead of
the unattended file.

Install-WindowsFeature
Installs one or more Windows Server roles, role services, or features on either the local or a specified remote
server that is running Windows Server 2012.
This cmdlet is equivalent to and replaces Add-WindowsFeature, the cmdlet that was used to install roles, role
services, and features in Windows Server 2008 R2.
so the 2 first answers are the same and we only have one choice here…

I think the answer is OK.Yes dcpromo is deprecated but as stated it can still be used for unattended installations which is what the question is trying to achieve I believe.
This article is for 2008:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd378860(v=ws.10).aspx
but is a subarticle of 2012 rodc staged install:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc770627(v=ws.10).aspx
ergo I think the answer provided is correct.Couldnt find a way of using a file with
add/install-windowsfeature

The answer is D. Install-ADDSDomainController cmdlet.

To create an RODC account by using an answer file
At the command prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER:
dcpromo.exe /CreateDCAccount /unattend:””

It is in fact dcpromo as explicitly confirmed by Microsoft here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/identity/ad-ds/deploy/rodc/install-a-windows-server-2012-active-directory-read-only-domain-controller–rodc—level-200-#rodc-without-staging-deployment
“You perform the staging operation of a read-only domain controller computer account by opening the Active Directory Administrative Center (Dsac.exe). Click the name of the domain in the navigation pane. Double-click Domain Controllers in the management list. Click Pre-create a Read-only domain controller account in the tasks pane.
…
If you have experience creating read-only domain controllers, you will discover that the installation wizard has the same graphical interface as seen when using the older Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in from Windows Server 2008 and uses the same code, which includes ___exporting the configuration in the unattend file format used by the obsolete dcpromo.___”
If it exports a file in dcpromo format then by golly you need to use dcpromo to import it!
