1Y0-312 Advanced Troubleshooting Practice Question
Exhibit
Set-BrokerDesktopGroup -Name 'Sales_Group' -MaxDisconnectTime 0
Refer to the exhibit. An administrator runs the provided PowerShell command on the Delivery Controller. What is the impact of this configuration on the 'Sales_Group' Delivery Group?
⚠ Common exam trap
Candidates often misinterpret a value of '0' in timeout PowerShell cmdlets as meaning an immediate timeout, rather than disabling the timer entirely.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Disconnected sessions will never time out.
The PowerShell cmdlet 'Set-BrokerDesktopGroup' with the parameter 'MaxDisconnectTime 0' effectively disables the automatic disconnection timer for sessions in that group. By setting the value to zero, the sessions will remain in a disconnected state indefinitely until the user manually logs off or the session is reset by an administrator. This is often used in environments where users require persistent access to long-running processes regardless of their current connection status.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Sessions will be automatically logged off after 0 minutes.
Why it's wrong here
Setting the value to 0 in this context means 'infinite' or 'disabled,' not 'zero duration.' If the intent was to terminate sessions immediately, this would be the wrong configuration. The setting disables the automated cleanup of disconnected sessions, which is the intended outcome of this specific command.
- ✓
Disconnected sessions will never time out.
Why this is correct
The parameter MaxDisconnectTime set to 0 disables the timeout functionality. This means any session that enters a 'Disconnected' state will stay in that state until the user logs back in or an administrator intervenes. This provides continuous availability for the user's running applications and state.
- ✗
The Delivery Group will be deleted from the site.
Why it's wrong here
This command only modifies the properties of the Delivery Group and does not delete it. To delete a Delivery Group, the 'Remove-BrokerDesktopGroup' command must be used. Modifying a timeout parameter is a non-destructive action that simply changes the behavior of existing user sessions within that group.
- ✗
Users will be prevented from disconnecting their sessions.
Why it's wrong here
This setting does not restrict the user's ability to initiate a disconnect; it only defines how long the system will maintain the session after the user has disconnected. Users can still choose to disconnect at any time, and the session will persist on the server indefinitely after that action.
