Question

You have a storage account named storage1 that contains FSLogix profile containers. In the East US region, you have an Azure compute gallery named SIG1 that contains a virtual machine image named Image1. Image1 is used to create new session hosts in Pool1. You plan to deploy a new Azure Virtual Desktop host pool named Pool2 to the South India region. You need to implement a session host deployment solution for Pool2 that meets the following requirements:

  • Image1 must replicate to the South India region.
  • The session hosts in Pool2 must be based on Image1.
  • Changes to Image1 must be available in the South India and East US

regions. What should you include in the solution?

Options

  • AConfigure geo-redundant storage (GRS) replication for storage1.
  • BFrom SIG1, update the replication for the latest image version of Image1.
  • CCreate a new Azure compute gallery named SIG2 in the South India region.
  • DCreate a new Azure Storage account named storage2 in the South India region.

Explanation

Azure Compute Gallery (formerly Shared Image Gallery) supports multi-region replication of image versions. SIG1 already exists in East US with Image1. To make Image1 available in South India without creating a new gallery or storage account, you update the replication targets on the latest image version of Image1 within SIG1 to include South India. This satisfies all requirements: Image1 replicates to South India, Pool2 session hosts can be deployed from it, and any future updates to Image1 automatically replicate to both regions based on the configured replication settings. Option A (GRS on storage1) replicates profile data, not VM images. Option C creates an unnecessary second gallery. Option D creates a storage account but doesn't replicate the VM image.
