Read the first 7 Microsoft 365 Deployment & Migration flashcards as text

  1. An organization is implementing a staged Exchange migration. What happens to email sent to a user whose mailbox has NOT yet been migrated to Exchange Online?

    Answer: Email is delivered to the on-premises mailbox via MX record routing

    During staged migration, the MX record still points to on-premises, so mail for non-migrated users continues to route to and be delivered to the on-premises mailbox.

  2. Which Azure AD Connect sync feature allows an administrator to write specific attributes back from Azure AD to on-premises Active Directory?

    Answer: Writeback

    Writeback features (such as group writeback, device writeback, and password writeback) synchronize selected attributes from Azure AD back to the on-premises directory.

  3. When deploying Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise, an administrator wants to use the Office Deployment Tool (ODT). What file format does the ODT use for its configuration?

    Answer: XML

    The Office Deployment Tool uses an XML configuration file (configuration.xml) to define installation settings, update channels, and excluded applications.

  4. A company needs to migrate 10,000 mailboxes from on-premises Exchange to Exchange Online. Which migration method is most appropriate?

    Answer: Hybrid migration with Exchange Hybrid

    For large organizations with thousands of mailboxes, a hybrid migration using Exchange Hybrid provides the most control, flexibility, and minimal disruption.

  5. What is the role of the Microsoft FastTrack service in Microsoft 365 deployments?

    Answer: A free benefit for eligible Microsoft 365 subscriptions providing deployment guidance and remote assistance

    FastTrack is a free benefit included with eligible Microsoft 365 subscriptions that provides remote guidance, best practices, and tools to help with deployment.

  6. During Microsoft 365 deployment, an administrator needs to configure DNS for Exchange Online. Which DNS record type is responsible for directing inbound email to Exchange Online?

    Answer: MX

    The MX (Mail Exchanger) record must be updated to point to Exchange Online Protection so that inbound email is routed to Exchange Online.

  7. An administrator is using the Microsoft 365 admin center to assign licenses during a migration. A user reports they cannot access Teams despite being assigned a Microsoft 365 E3 license. What should the administrator check first?

    Answer: Whether the Teams service plan within the license is enabled for the user

    Within a Microsoft 365 license, individual service plans (like Teams) can be toggled on or off; the administrator should verify Teams is enabled in the user's license assignment.
