Planning and Administering Microsoft Azure for SAP Workloads Questions 186–190 (page: 39)

Updated On: 10-Feb-2026

You have an Azure subscription that contains an SAP production landscape. The landscape contains virtual machines that run Linux and have the standard version of Azure VM extension for SAP solutions installed.

You remove the standard version of the Azure VM extension for SAP solutions from each virtual machine.

You need to install the new version of the Azure VM extension for SAP solutions.

What should you do first?

  1. Assign a managed identity for each virtual machine.
  2. Configure a Microsoft Entra enterprise application.
  3. Configure Application Insights.
  4. Configure a Log Analytics workspace.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The new VM Extension for SAP uses a managed identity that's assigned to the VM to access monitoring and configuration data of the VM. To install the new Azure Extension for SAP by using PowerShell, you first have to assign such an identity to the VM and grant that identity access to all resources that are in use by that VM, for example, disks and network interfaces.

HOTSPOT (Drag and Drop is not supported)

You have an Azure subscription.

You need to deploy an SAP on Azure production landscape. The solution must meet the following requirements:

Minimize network latency between SAP HANA and the SAP application servers.

Ensure that all outbound internet traffic originates from a specific public IP address.

What should you include in the solution for each requirement? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.

NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Hot Area:

  1. See Explanation for the Answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:




Box 1: A proximity placement group
Minimize network latency between SAP HANA and the SAP application servers.

To minimize network latency between SAP HANA and application servers in Azure, deploy them within a proximity placement group, and enable Accelerated Networking on the VMs. This ensures colocation and optimized network performance.

Box 2: Azure NAT Gateway
Ensure that all outbound internet traffic originates from a specific public IP address.

To ensure all outbound internet traffic from your Azure SAP HANA and application servers originates from a specific public IP address, you can use an Azure NAT Gateway or an Azure Firewall with outbound rules. These solutions provide static public IP addresses for outbound connectivity, allowing you to control and manage the source IP for all traffic leaving your network.

HOTSPOT (Drag and Drop is not supported)

You have an Azure subscription.

You plan to deploy an SAP production landscape in Azure. The landscape will use SAP HANA databases that run on Edsv4-series Azure virtual machines.

You need to recommend a storage solution for the deployment. The solution must meet the following requirements:

Comply with the SAP support restrictions.

Minimize costs.

What should you include in the recommendation? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.

NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Hot Area:

  1. See Explanation for the Answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:




Box 1: Standard SSD
Operating system disk

Operating System Disk:
The OS disk typically resides on a standard disk type. It's where the operating system (like Linux or Windows)

is installed, along with necessary software for running the SAP HANA database.

Box 2: Premium SSD v2
DBMS data volume

In an Azure environment with SAP HANA databases on Edsv4 virtual machines, the operating system is typically installed on the primary OS disk. The SAP HANA database data and log volumes are separate disks, often utilizing Azure Premium SSD or Ultra Disk storage for performance reasons.

Box 3: Premium SSD v2
DBMS log volume

Note: In the context of deploying SAP HANA databases on Azure Virtual Machines (VMs), several key storage considerations are essential. This includes using Azure storage types like Premium SSD (V1 or V2) or Ultra disks for DBMS data and log volumes, as well as understanding the different storage configurations and their impact on performance and availability.
Key Storage Components and Recommendations:
Operating System Disk: This is the main disk where the operating system and core system files are installed on the VM.
DBMS Data Volume: This volume stores the actual database data. DBMS Log Volume: This volume stores the transaction logs (redo logs) and is critical for database recovery and replication.

Incorrect:
* Standard HDD:
Standard HDD is generally not recommended for SAP HANA DBMS data and log volumes due to performance limitations.

HOTSPOT (Drag and Drop is not supported)

You plan to deploy an SAP workload to an Azure virtual machine. The workload will use the following types of storage:

Premium managed disks that host database files

Volume mounts that use Azure premium files to host the SAP global transport directory

You need to ensure that the storage maximizes throughput and minimizes costs.

What should you use for each storage type? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.

NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Hot Area:

  1. See Explanation for the Answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:




Box 1: A single striped volume that uses multiple disks
Premium managed disks that host database files

Use disk striping over multiple disks with premium storage (v1 or v2) for database data and log area.

Box 2: A single volume
Volume mounts that use Azure premium files to host the SAP global transport directory

For an SAP global transport directory using Azure premium files, you should use an Azure Files premium SMB or NFS volume. Azure Premium Files is recommended for this scenario due to its high performance and reliability, making it suitable for storing SAP global transport directory.

HOTSPOT (Drag and Drop is not supported)

You have an Azure subscription.

You plan to deploy SAP HANA by using Azure Center for SAP solutions.

You need to identify the version numbers of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) images available for deployment from Azure Marketplace.

How should you complete the Azure PowerShell command? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.

NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Hot Area:

  1. See Explanation for the Answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:




Box 1: Get-AzVMImage
To find Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) image versions in Azure Marketplace using PowerShell, use the Get- AzVMImage cmdlet. Specifically, you can use the -Location, -PublisherName, and -Offer parameters to filter for RHEL images, and then inspect the Version property of the returned results.

Box 2: -Offer
Once you have the desired SKU, use Get-AzVMImage to list the available versions for that SKU. For example:
Get-AzVMImage -Location "eastus" -PublisherName RedHat -Offer rhel-byos -Sku rhel-lvm8-gen2 will list the versions for RHEL 8 using the LVM storage type.
