HOTSPOT (Drag and Drop is not supported)

You plan to deploy two Azure file shares named share1 and share2 that will be used with Azure Virtual Desktop.

The share1 file share will contain at least 100 GB of data and must be stored on SSDs.

The share2 file share must be able to switch between Transaction optimized and Cool storage tiers and must be stored on HDDs.

You need to recommend which type of storage accounts to use for the shares. The solution must minimize costs.

What should you recommend for each share? 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: Premium file shares
Share1 will contain at least 100 GB of data and must be stored on SSDs.

Premium file shares enable highly I/O-intensive workloads, with high throughput and low latency. Premium file shares are offered on high-performance solid-state drive (SSD) based storage.

Incorrect:
* Page Blob pricing:



* Premium block blobs
Block blob storage is used for streaming and storing documents, videos, pictures, backups, and other unstructured text or binary data.

Box 2: Standard general-purpose v2
Share2 must be able to switch between Transaction optimized and Cool storage tiers and must be stored on HDDs.

Transaction optimized file shares enable transaction heavy workloads that don't need the latency offered by premium file shares with consistent latency. Transaction optimized file shares are a great fit for applications that require file storage or for backend storage.

General purpose v2 storage accounts offer the latest Azure Files features, including hot and cool tiers and are recommended for all users. Transaction optimized file shares are available in both general purpose v1 and v2 storage accounts.

Your network contains an on-premises Active Directory domain. The domain contains a universal security group named AVDusers.

You have a hybrid Azure AD tenant. AVDusers syncs to Azure AD.

You have an Azure Virtual Desktop host pool that contains four Windows 10 Enterprise multi-session hosts.

You need to ensure that the members of AVDusers can establish Azure Virtual Desktop sessions to the host pool.

What should you do?

  1. On each session host, add AVDusers to the local Remote Desktop Users group.
  2. Assign AVDusers to an Azure role scoped to the host pool.
  3. Assign AVDusers to an application group.
  4. Assign AVDusers to an Azure role scoped to the session hosts.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The default app group created for a new Azure Virtual Desktop host pool also publishes the full desktop. In addition, you can create one or more RemoteApp application groups for the host pool.
Assign AVDusers to the application group and they would then appear for the respective Remote Apps and associated DAG.

You plan to deploy Azure Virtual Desktop session host virtual machines based on a preconfigured master image. The master image will be stored in an Azure compute gallery.

You create a virtual machine named Image1 to use as the master image. You install applications and apply configuration changes to Image1.

You need to ensure that the new session host virtual machines created based on Image1 have unique names and security identifiers.

What should you do on Image1 before you add the image to the Azure compute gallery?

  1. At a command prompt, run the set computername command.
  2. From PowerShell, run the rename-computer cmdlet.
  3. At a command prompt, run the sysprep command.
  4. From the lock screen of the Windows device, perform a Windows Autopilot Reset.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Remove machine specific information by generalizing a VM before creating an image Sysprep removes all your personal account and security information, and then prepares the machine to be used as an image.
Note: Generalizing a VM is not necessary for creating an image in an Azure Compute Gallery unless you specifically want to create a generalized image. Generalizing is required when creating a managed image outside of a gallery.
Generalizing removes machine specific information so the image can be used to create multiple VMs. Once the VM has been generalized, you need to let the platform know so that the boot sequence can be set correctly.
Incorrect:
* Windows Autopilot Reset
Windows Autopilot Reset takes the device back to a business-ready state, allowing the next user to sign in and get productive quickly and simply. Specifically, Windows Autopilot Reset:
Removes personal files, apps, and settings.
Reapplies a device's original settings.
Sets the region, language, and keyboard to the original values.
Maintains the device's identity connection to Azure AD.
Maintains the device's management connection to Intune.

DRAG DROP (Drag and Drop is not supported)

Your on-premises network contains an Active Directory domain that syncs with a Microsoft Entra tenant.

You have an Azure Virtual Desktop host pool that contains Windows 11 session hosts joined to the domain.

You need to configure Azure NetApp Files to store user profile containers.

Which four actions should you perform in sequence? To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.

Note: More than one order of answer choices is correct. You will receive credit for any of the correct orders you select.

Select and Place:

  1. See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:




Step 1: Create a new Azure NetApp Files account.
To get started, you need to set up an Azure NetApp Files account.

Step 2: Create a capacity pool
Next, create a new capacity pool:

Step 3: Configure an Active Directory connection to the Microsoft Entra tenant. After that, you need to join an Active Directory connection.

Note:
1. Select Active Directory connections in the menu on the left side of the page, then select the Join button to open the Join Active Directory page.



2. Etc.

Step 4: Create a new SMB volume
Next, you'll need to create a new SMB volume.

DRAG DROP (Drag and Drop is not supported)

You have an Azure Virtual Desktop deployment.

You plan to create the host pools shown in the following table.



You need to recommend the virtual machine size for each host pool to meet the session host requirements.

What should you recommend? To answer, drag the appropriate virtual machine sizes to the correct host pools. Each size may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You many need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content.

Note: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Select and Place:

  1. See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:




Box 1: F-Series
F-Series as the best value in a price-performance position in Azure based on the list price of F-Series divided by the Azure Compute Unit (ACU) per core.

The F-Series VMs are an excellent choice for gaming servers, web servers and batch processing. Any workload which does not need as much memory or local SSD per CPU core will benefit from the value of the F- Series.

Box 2: E-Series
Microsoft Azure VMs: E Series
Optimized for in-memory hyper-threaded applications*

The E-series family of Azure virtual machines are optimized for heavy in-memory applications such as SAP HANA. These VMs are set up with high memory-to-core ratios, which makes them well-suited for relational database servers, with medium to large caches, and in-memory analytics.

Box 3: N-Series
Microsoft Azure VMs: N Series
GPU enabled virtual machines

The 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.

Incorrect:
* A-Series
Microsoft Azure VMs: A Series
Entry-level economical VMs for dev/test

These are generally usedin small deployments where cost consciousness outweighs performance. You should only use these in rare instance implementations with non-customer facing VMs.

* B-Series

Microsoft Azure VMs: B Series
Economical burstable VMs

B-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.
