Question

Hotspot Question You have an Azure Storage account named storage1 that contains two containers named container1 and container2. Blob versioning is enabled for both containers. You periodically take blob snapshots of critical blobs. You create the following lifecycle management policy. For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point. Answer:

Explanation

The lifecycle management policy applies a rule that moves blob snapshots to the Cool tier after 15 days, making the first statement correct (Yes). The second statement is No because the archive rule for blob versions is scoped to container1 only (via a prefix filter or container-specific filter), so container2 versions are not affected by the archive tier rule. The third statement is No because lifecycle management policies do not apply to rehydrated blobs - once a blob is rehydrated from Archive, the policy that originally archived it does not retroactively re-archive it after 30 days unless explicitly configured, and standard lifecycle rules exclude blobs in a 'rehydrating' state or recently rehydrated blobs from automatic archiving to prevent conflicts.
