Hi All

i have an Azure image of windows server 2016. i am not sure if sysprep has been ran on it before converting to image. i have provisioned two servers from this image and have joined to the domain. If sysprep has not been run then i should be able to see same SID value on the two servers. how do i check this on the two servers.
