MD-102 Prepare infrastructure for devices Practice Question
Exhibit
Refer to the exhibit.
{
"enrollmentTimeDeviceMembershipProcessingStatus": "notStarted",
"displayName": "Windows AutoPilot Deployment Profile",
"description": "Profile for Autopilot devices",
"enrollmentStatusTrackerSettings": {
"blockDeviceWithNotApplicableStatus": false,
"blockDeviceWithPendingRetryStatus": false,
"blockDeviceWithTimeoutStatus": false,
"deviceEnrollmentFailureAction": "block"
}
}Refer to the exhibit. An Intune administrator configures an Autopilot deployment profile with the shown settings. During OOBE, a device fails to install a required app and enrollment fails. What will happen to the device?
⚠ Common exam trap
Watch out — candidates often confuse the ESP's 'block device use' setting with a simple retry mechanism, assuming the device will automatically retry or proceed, when in fact a hard block is enforced until the failure is resolved.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
The device will be blocked from completing OOBE.
The Autopilot deployment profile shown has the Enrollment Status Page (ESP) configured with 'Block device use until all required apps and profiles are installed' enabled. When a required app fails to install during OOBE, the ESP enforces a hard block, preventing the user from proceeding past the ESP until the failure is resolved. This is why the device is blocked from completing OOBE, making option C correct.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
The device will be allowed to proceed because enrollment status is notStarted.
Why it's wrong here
A notStarted enrollment status does not let the device proceed; the ESP blocks until status resolves. It is tempting because notStarted sounds like a neutral, non-blocking state, and it would be correct when describing a device that has not yet begun the enrollment status page sequence.
- ✗
The device will retry enrollment automatically.
Why it's wrong here
Autopilot does not retry a failed app installation; the enrolment error blocks OOBE until the app installs or the profile is corrected. Retry logic applies to transient network or MDM service errors, so this would fit a device that lost connectivity mid-enrolment, not one failing a required app.
- ✓
The device will be blocked from completing OOBE.
Why this is correct
When a required app fails during Autopilot OOBE, the enrolment profile's blocking behaviour halts the process, so the device cannot complete setup. This matches the stem's failed-app scenario: the device is blocked from finishing OOBE rather than continuing with reduced functionality.
- ✗
The device will be blocked until retry due to pendingRetry setting.
Why it's wrong here
Autopilot's pendingRetry setting does not block the device; it governs the retry interval for the enrollment status page. It is tempting because retry logic sounds like a blocking mechanism, and it would be correct when configuring how long the ESP waits before reattempting a failed app installation.
