Correct arrangement
- Create a PowerShell configuration file.
- Load the file to Azure Blob storage.
- Configure the DSC extension on the virtual machines.
Explanation
Azure DSC (Desired State Configuration) requires a PowerShell-based configuration file (.ps1) because DSC is a PowerShell platform that defines the desired state of Windows systems, including which Windows features should be installed. The configuration file must be uploaded to Azure Blob storage because the DSC extension retrieves the configuration package (zipped .ps1 file) from a URL, which Blob storage provides via SAS tokens or public access. Finally, the DSC extension is configured on the virtual machines to point to the Blob storage location, which then enforces the desired state automatically.
