In a non-domain-joined StoreFront deployment, server groups are NOT supported. Which option correctly reflects this fact?

• A. Server groups are supported
• B. Server groups are NOT supported
• C. Server groups can be created automatically
• D. Server groups require Domain Controller

Answer: (B)

Server Groups in StoreFront rely on sharing and coordinating configuration across multiple servers, which is achieved through domain-based services and synchronization. In a non-domain-joined StoreFront deployment there’s no domain environment to provide that coordinated state, so the capability to group multiple StoreFront servers together isn’t available. If you need resilience in a non-domain setup, you’d typically use multiple independent StoreFront instances behind a load balancer rather than a Server Group. So the statement that Server Groups are not supported in a non-domain-joined deployment is the correct one.
