Microsoft 365 Administrator Expert MS-102 Practice Question

Contoso currently uses Microsoft Entra Connect Sync with password hash synchronization (PHS) to synchronize an on-premises Active Directory forest that contains 25,000 users. Self-service password reset (SSPR) with writeback to Active Directory is enabled.

The company plans to retire the existing Entra Connect server and instead deploy Microsoft Entra Cloud Sync agents on two member servers to reduce maintenance overhead.

You must ensure that all existing functionality continues to work after the change.

Which statement accurately describes the impact of replacing Entra Connect Sync with Entra Cloud Sync in this scenario?

  • Pass-through authentication would be required because Cloud Sync does not support password hash synchronization.

  • You must retain the Microsoft Entra Connect Sync metaverse SQL database to store synchronization metadata.

  • Self-service password reset would no longer write passwords back to on-premises Active Directory.

  • Hybrid Azure AD join for Windows clients would continue to work because Cloud Sync can register devices.
