Correct answer: D Members of the Backup Operators group can back up and restore all files on A computer, regardless of the permissions that protect those files. This doesn't means that the member of Backup operators group can backup any computer and not just a Domain controller. They do have the permissions needed to replace files (including operating system files) on domain controllers. Because members of this group can replace files on domain controllers, they're considered service administrators.

It is definitely either D or E. Backup Operators can perform backup/restore operations for domain controllers and member servers. I'm just not sure if they can do this for only members of the root domain, or if those permissions would apply to child domains as well. I believe it would be that domain only.

i agrre with you. But for the child domain, as you can test it, it contain his built-in Backup Operator Group, so the user in the root domain cannot have access to this child domain if he is not member of the child domain built-in security group

Correct “Members of the Backup Operators group can back up and restore all files on a computer, regardless of the permissions that protect those files. Backup Operators also can log on to and shut down the computer. This group can't be renamed, deleted, or removed. By default, this built-in group has no members, and it can perform backup and restore operations on domain controllers.“

The correct answer is option C: DC1 and DC2 only. This is because User1, by being added to the Backup Operators group in the contoso.com domain, would have permissions to perform backups on the domain controllers (DC1 and DC2) within the Active Directory forest, as both are configured as domain controllers in their respective domains.

1-The Backup Operators group at the domain level applies only to domain controllers within that specific domain. 2-Backup Operators cannot cross into child domains or other trusted domains unless explicitly added to the respective Backup Operators groups. 3-To back up member servers or workstations, a user must be added to the local Backup Operators group on each machine.

Selected Answer: D
members of the "Backup Operators" group in a domain can back up data on member servers within that domain. The "Backup Operators" group is a built-in group in Windows that has certain privileges related to backing up and restoring files and directories on computers running Windows operating systems.

It is clearly A. "Backup Operators" is a built-in group - this will present as a local group on member servers, and child domains will have their own "Backup Operators" group.

"Backup Operators" is a built-in group. It's not a domain groups. Child domain also has it's own "Backup Operators" built-in group, so you cannot backup the domain or any other member server of the child domain.
