Your network contains a single Active Directory domain. All servers run Windows Server
2008 R2.
You deploy a new server that runs Windows Server 2008 R2. The server is not connected to
the internal network.
You need to ensure that the new server is already joined to the domain when it first connects
to the internal network.
What should you do?
A.
From a domain controller, run sysprep.exe and specify the /oobe parameter. From the
new server, run sysprep.exe and specify the /generalize parameter.
B.
From a domain controller, run sysprep.exe and specify the /generalize parameter. From
the new server, run sysprep.exe and specify the /oobe parameter.
C.
From a domain-joined computer, run djoin.exe and specify the /provision parameter. From
the new server, run djoin.exe and specify the /requestodj parameter.
D.
From a domain-joined computer, run djoin.exe and specify the /requestodj parameter.
From the new server, run djoin.exe and specify the /provision parameter.

Offline Domain Join
Offline domain join is also useful when a computer is deployed in a lab or other disconnected
environment.
When the computer is connected to the domain network and started for the first time, it will
already be a member of the domain. This also helps to ensure that Group Policy settings are
applied at the first startup. Four major steps are required to join a computer to the domain by
using offline domain join:
1. Log on to a computer in the domain that is running Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows
7 with an account that has permissions to join computers to the domain.
2. Use the DJoin command to provision a computer for offline domain join. This step
prepopulates Active
Directory with the information that Active Directory needs to join the computer to the domain,
and exports the information called a blob to a text file.
3. At the offline computer that you want to join the domain use DJoin to import the blob into
the Windows directory.
4. When you start or restart the computer, it will be a member of the domain.

Steps for performing an offline domain join
The offline domain join process includes the following steps:1. Run the djoin.exe /provision command to create computer account metadata for the
destination computer (the computer that you want to join to the domain). As part of this
command, you must specify the name of the domain that you want the computer to join.
2. Run the djoin.exe /requestODJ command to insert the computer account metadata into
the Windows directory of the destination computer.
3. When you start the destination computer, either as a virtual machine or after a complete
operating system installation, the computer will be joined to the domain that you specify.
