What should you do?

You have an Active Directory forest named contoso.com.

You install and configure Azure AD Connect to use password hash synchronization as the single sign-on (SSO) method. Staging mode is enabled.

What should you do?
A . From Azure PowerShell, run Start-AdSyncSyncCycle CPolicyType Initial.
B . Run Azure AD Connect and set the SSO method to Pass-through Authentication.
C . From Synchronization Service Manager, run a full import.
D . Run Azure AD Connect and disable staging mode.

Answer: D

Explanation:

In staging mode, the server is active for import and synchronization, but it does not run any exports. A server in staging mode is not running password sync or password writeback, even if you selected these features during installation. When you disable staging mode, the server starts exporting, enables password sync, and enables password writeback.
