You have an Azure subscription named Subscription1.
You have 5 TB of data that you need to transfer to Subscription1. You plan to use an Azure Import/Export job.
What can you use as the destination of the imported data?

  1. Azure Blob Storage
  2. Azure Data Lake Store
  3. Azure SQL Database
  4. a virtual machine

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Azure Import/Export service is used to securely import large amounts of data to Azure Blob storage and Azure Files by shipping disk drives to an Azure datacenter. This service can also be used to transfer data from Azure Blob storage to disk drives and ship to your on-premises sites. Data from one or more disk drives can be imported either to Azure Blob storage or Azure Files.
Note:
There are several versions of this question in the exam. The question has two correct answers:
* Azure File Storage
Azure Blob Storage
The question can have other incorrect answer options, including the following:
* a virtual machine
* Azure SQL Database
* Azure Data Factory
* Azure Cosmos DB database
* Azure File Sync Storage Sync Service
* Azure Data Lake Store

You have an Azure subscription. The subscription contains a storage account named storage1 that has the lifecycle management rules shown in the following table.


On June 1, you store a blob named File1 in the Hot access tier of storage1. What is the state of File1 on June 7?

  1. stored in the Cool access tier
  2. stored in the Archive access tier
  3. stored in the Hot access tier
  4. deleted

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

If you define more than one action on the same blob, lifecycle management applies the least expensive action to the blob. For example, action delete is cheaper than action tierToArchive. Action tierToArchive is cheaper than action tierToCool.

HOTSPOT (Drag and Drop is not supported)
You have an Azure subscription that contains the storage accounts shown in the following table.


You need to identify which storage accounts support lifecycle management, and which storage accounts support moving data to the Archive access tier.
Which storage accounts should you use? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Hot Area:

  1. See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:



Box 1: storage1, storage2, and storage3
Azure Storage lifecycle management offers a rule-based policy that you can use to transition blob data to the appropriate access tiers or to expire data at the end of the data lifecycle.
Lifecycle management policies are supported for block blobs and append blobs in general-purpose v2, premium block blob, and Blob Storage accounts.
Box 2: storage2
The Archive tier for Blob Storage is currently supported for LRS, GRS, and RA-GRS accounts.
Incorrect:
* not storage1, not storage3
The Archive tier for Blob Storage isn't currently supported for ZRS, GZRS, or RA-GZRS accounts.

HOTSPOT (Drag and Drop is not supported)
You have an Azure subscription that contains a storage account named storage1. The storage1 account contains a container named container1.
You create a blob lifecycle rule named rule1.
You need to configure rule1 to automatically move blobs that were NOT updated for 45 days from contained to the Cool access tier.
How should you complete the rule? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Hot Area:

  1. See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:



Box 1: daysAfterModificationGreaterThan
Box 2: Blockblob Use a block blob.
Example: The following sample JSON defines a lifecycle policy that moves a block blob whose name begins with log to the cool tier if it has been more than 30 days since the blob was modified.
{
"rules": [
{
"enabled": true, "name": "move-to-cool",
"type": "Lifecycle", "definition": { "actions": {
"baseBlob": { "tierToCool": {
"daysAfterModificationGreaterThan": 30
}
}
},
"filters": {
"blobTypes": [ "blockBlob"
],
"prefixMatch": [ "sample-container/log"
]
}
}
}
]

You plan to create an Azure Storage account named storage1 that will contain a file share named share1. You need to ensure that share1 can support SMB Multichannel. The solution must minimize costs.
How should you configure storage?

  1. Premium performance with locally-redundant storage (LRS)
  2. Standard performance with zone-redundant storage (ZRS)
  3. Premium performance with geo-redundant storage (GRS)
  4. Standard performance with locally-redundant storage (LRS)

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

SMB Multichannel enables SMB clients to establish multiple parallel connections to an Azure file share. This allows SMB clients to take full advantage of all available network bandwidth and makes them resilient to network failures, reducing total cost of ownership and enabling 2-3x for reads and 3-4x for writes through a single client. SMB Multichannel is available for premium file shares (file shares deployed in the FileStorage storage account kind) and is disabled by default.
