Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain contains a
domain controller named DC1 that runs Windows Server 2012 R2. DC1 is backed up daily.
The domain has the Active Directory Recycle Bin enabled.
During routine maintenance, you delete 500 inactive user accounts and 100 inactive groups. One of
the deleted groups is named Group1. Some of the deleted user accounts are members of some of
the deleted groups.
For documentation purposes, you must provide a list of the members of Group1 before the group
was deleted.
You need to identify the names of the users who were members of Group1 prior to its deletion.
You want to achieve this goal by using the minimum amount of administrative effort.
What should you do first?
A.
Mount the most recent Active Directory backup.
B.
Reactivate the tombstone of Group1.
C.
Perform an authoritative restore of Group1.
D.
Use the Recycle Bin to restore Group1.
Explanation:
The Active Directory Recycle Bin does not have the ability to track simple changes to objects.
If the object itself is not deleted, no element is moved to the Recycle Bin for possible recovery in the
future. In other words, there is no rollback capacity for changes to object properties, or, in other
words, to the values of these properties.
I do not agree with the answer selected because if there was a change since the most recent backup, that change would not be documented. I think restoring from the AD recycle bin is best because it is current and most up to date because it is the actual group that was deleted. It could be restored to a temp OU and then document the list of users and then deleted again.

I retract my last statement. After doing some experimenting, restoring from the recycle bin would not work unless everything was restored. Because the group had multiple user accounts that were deleted with it, if only the group is restored, it removes the user accounts that are not restored. So it would have to be mount the recent snapshot to find this data.

i don´t agree with the answer selected. The text do not specify that snapshots are done. We have to suppose that when the back is done, a snapshot of active directory is taken?
