  • When you enable auditing for SQLdb1, you can store the audit information to storage1.Yes
  • When you enable auditing for SQLdb2, you can store the audit information to storage2.No
  • When you enable auditing for SQLdb3, you can store the audit information to storage2.Yes

Explanation

Azure SQL Database auditing requires that the storage account used for audit logs be in the same region as the SQL server, OR the storage account can be in any region if using a General Purpose v2 (GPv2) or higher account type. Statement 1 is Yes because SQLdb1's server (server1) and storage1 share the same region. Statement 2 is No because SQLdb2's server (server2) is in a different region than storage2, and storage2 is not a GPv2 account (or does not meet cross-region requirements). Statement 3 is Yes because even though SQLdb3's server (server3) may be in a different region, storage2 meets the GPv2 requirement allowing cross-region audit log storage.
