Answer options
A: Execute repadmin.exe/showrepl localhost:389. Correct answer
B: Execute ViewDBChk.cmd --scanMachines.
C: Execute vdmexport.exe -f Myexport.lDF.
D: Execute vdmadmin.exe -S.
Correct Answer:
A. Execute repadmin.exe/showrepl localhost:389.
Explanation

Before any parallel upgrade, you must prove that AD LDS (Horizon LDAP) replication is healthy. Running “repadmin /showrepl localhost:389” on each Connection Server enumerates inbound and outbound partners for that server’s AD LDS instance, confirming successful replication across the pod.

Why Incorrect

B: ViewDBChk scans machine entries; it does not test LDAP replication. C: vdmexport backs up LDAP data but provides no replication status. D: vdmadmin -S shows schema version information only.
