An administrator sets an offline server's LAPS password expiration in AD and immediately expects the local password to change. Why can it remain unchanged?

Choose the single best answer.

A.Password expiration edits disable the managed local account
B.An AD expiration update always reaches disconnected guests instantly
C.The server must reconnect and process the relevant state before rotating
D.Only the schema master can rotate a local password interactively

Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

The server must reconnect and process the relevant state before rotating

AD expiration is a request/state change acted on by the device when it processes policy/state. It cannot instantly reach a disconnected guest. Schema ownership does not perform each local rotation, and expiration does not inherently disable the account.
