Question

Drag and Drop Question You have a new Azure subscription. You plan to deploy the resources shown in the following table. You need to create an Azure Resource Manager (ARM) template to automate the deployment. The solution must ensure that all the resources are deployed successfully. In which order should the ARM template deploy the resources? To answer, move all resources from the list of resources to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.

Correct arrangement

  • VNet1
  • PIP1
  • NIC1
  • VM1

Explanation

Azure resources must be deployed in dependency order: VNet1 must be created first because NIC1 requires a virtual network subnet to attach to. PIP1 (Public IP Address) must be created before NIC1 because the NIC references the Public IP for its IP configuration. NIC1 must be deployed before VM1 because a virtual machine requires a network interface card to be associated with it at creation time. This dependency chain ensures each resource exists before a dependent resource attempts to reference it.
