HOTSPOT (Drag and Drop is not supported)You are implementing a highly available deployment of SAP HANA on Azure virtual machines.You need to ensure that the deployment meets the following requirements:Supports host auto-failoverMinimizes costHow should you configure the highly available components of the deployment? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.Hot Area:
Answer(s): A
Box 1: NFSv4 volumesThe minimum SAP HANA certified conditions for the different storage types include:FS v4.1 volumes on top of Azure NetApp Files for /hana/log and /hana/data.Box 2: An SBD deviceTo achieve HANA high availability for HANA scale-out installations, you can configure HANA system replication, and protect the solution with a Pacemaker cluster to allow automatic failover.Note: SBD (STONITH Block Device) provides a node fencing mechanism for Pacemaker-based clusters through the exchange of messages via shared block storage (SAN, iSCSI, FCoE, etc.). This isolates the fencing mechanism from changes in firmware version or dependencies on specific firmware controllers.
You are designing an SAP on Azure production landscape.The landscape must ensure service availability in the event of an Azure datacenter failure.What should you include in the design?
Azure availability zones are physically separate locations within each Azure region that are tolerant to local failures.Azure regions and availability zones are physically separate locations within each Azure region that are tolerant to datacenter failures.

You plan to deploy an SAP production landscape on Azure.You need to minimize latency between SAP HANA database servers and SAP NetWeaver servers.What should you implement?
Answer(s): C
A proximity placement group is a logical grouping used to make sure that Azure compute resources are physically located close to each other. Proximity placement groups are useful for workloads where low latency is a requirement.Note:To run SAP landscapes in Azure, connect to the enterprise edge router closest to the Azure region in the SAP landscape. HANA Large Instance stamps are connected through dedicated enterprise edge routers to minimize network latency between VMs in Azure IaaS and HANA Large Instance stamps.

DRAG DROP (Drag and Drop is not supported)You have an Azure virtual machine named VM1 that runs SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) and hosts an SAP NetWeaver application server.You need to install the Azure VM extension for SAP solutions on VM1.Which three actions should you perform in sequence? To answer, move all actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.Select and Place:
Step 1: From Azure Cloud Shell, run az login.Step 2: From Azure Cloud Shell, run az vm aem setStep 3: On VM1, restart SAP Host AgentConfigure the Azure VM extension for SAP solutions with Azure CLI The new VM Extension for SAP uses a managed identity that is assigned to the VM to access monitoring and configuration data of the VM.1. Ensure that you use SAP Host Agent 7.21 PL 47 or later.2. Ensure that you uninstall the current version of the VM Extension for SAP. You can't install both versions of the VM Extension for SAP on the same VM.3. Install the latest version of Azure CLI 2.0 (version 2.19.1 or later).4. Sign in with your Azure account:az login (step 1)5. Install the Azure CLI AEM Extension. Ensure that you use version 0.2.2 or later.az extension add --name aem6. Enable the new extension:The VM Extension for SAP supports configuring a proxy that the extension should use to connect to external resources, for example the Azure Resource Manager API. Please use parameter --proxy-uri to set the proxy. az vm aem set -g <resource-group-name> -n <vm name> --install-new-extension (Step 2)7. Restart SAP Host Agent (step 3)

DRAG DROP (Drag and Drop is not supported)You need to deploy an SAP production landscape on Azure. The solution must be supported by the SAP production landscape and must minimize costs.Which Azure virtual machine series should you use for each SAP workload? To answer, drag the appropriate series to the correct workloads. Each series may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content.NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.Select and Place:
Box 1:B-SeriesAzure VMs: B SeriesEconomical burstable VMsB-series are economical virtual machines that provide a low-cost option for workloads that typically run at a low- to-moderate baseline CPU utilization, but sometimes need to burst to significantly higher CPU utilization when the demand rises.Incorrect:Azure VMs: D SeriesGeneral purpose computeD-series VMs feature fast CPUs and optimal CPU-to-memory configuration, making them suitable for most production workloads.Box 2: M-SeriesWe [Microsoft] have been working with SAP over the last few months to leverage and certify Azure M-series VMs for their SAP HANA database, utilizing these capabilities. Today, we are excited to announce that M- Series VMs are certified by SAP for SAP HANA production workloads.Incorrect:* N-SeriesAzure VMs: N SeriesGPU enabled virtual machinesThe N-series is a family of Azure Virtual Machines with GPU capabilities. GPUs are ideal for compute and graphics-intensive workloads, helping customers to fuel innovation through scenarios like high-end remote visualization, deep learning, and predictive analytics.
