Question

Hotspot Question You have an Azure subscription that contains an Azure Availability Set named WEBPROD-AS- USE2 as shown in the following exhibit. You add 14 virtual machines to WEBPROD-AS-USE2. Use the drop-down menus to select the answer choice that completes each statement based on the information presented in the graphic. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point. Answer:

Explanation

An Azure Availability Set is a logical grouping within a single datacenter (region). WEBPROD-AS-USE2 is located in East US 2 (USE2), meaning ALL virtual machines added to this Availability Set must reside in that same region - you cannot deploy any VM within an Availability Set to a different region such as West US. Since the Availability Set is bound to East US 2, VM3, VM4, and VM5 (and all 14 VMs added) are locked to that region, making the answer 'No' for all three statements.
