Exam MS-102 topic 1 question 217 discussion

The correct answer is A. Start-ManagedFolderAssistant. Start-ManagedFolderAssistant: This cmdlet triggers the Managed Folder Assistant (MFA) in Exchange Online. The MFA is responsible for processing mailbox items and applying retention policies, including retention labels. By running this cmdlet, you force the MFA to immediately process User1's mailbox, ensuring the Retention1 label is available for use as soon as possible.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/exchange/start-managedfolderassistant?view=exchange-ps Description The Managed Folder Assistant uses the retention policy settings of users' mailboxes to process retention of items. This mailbox processing occurs automatically. You can use the Start-ManagedFolderAssistant cmdlet to immediately start processing the specified mailbox.

Going back to on-prem Exchange admin days, A is correct.

This question is difficult, there is no specific documentation that informs us we can start the sync process of retention label to EXO, it takes a maximum of 7 days for retention policy and the same concept appears for retention label, in theory, the only thing we can do when we publish a retention policy or retention label is wait until the backend process run automatically. option A: MFA is the only option feasible for this question because this command restarts the review for the item for the retention policy or retention label. but personally, I don't think there is a correct answer, I just go with the A because it makes more sense based on the explanation for each command. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/purview/create-retention-policies?view=o365-worldwide&tabs=teams-retention#how-long-it-takes-for-retention-policies-to-take-effect

A seems to be most likely correct, based on what the MS PowerShell reference says: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/exchange/start-managedfolderassistant?view=exchange-ps
