Microsoft Azure Administrator AZ-104 Practice Test 19

Question 180

The cloud team needs a bounded claim about: enforce identity-based share access plus file-level authorization on the SMB path. Which statement avoids promising more than the control supplies?

  1. The earlier issue, 'Employees can reach the SMB endpoint but are denied access to a protected directory despite having a share role', can never recur once this single correction has been deployed.
  2. Share-level access alone does not override more restrictive file or directory ACLs.
  3. After the selected Azure change, a passing check for 'Mount the share as an entitled user and read the approved folder' proves every dependent permission and service will keep working.
  4. A successful run of 'Mount the share as an entitled user and read the approved folder' means the separate check 'Test an unentitled user against the same path and confirm access is denied' is redundant.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Share-level access alone does not override more restrictive file or directory ACLs. That remains a practical service boundary even after the recommended change (configure a supported Azure Files identity source for SMB, appropriate share-level permissions and file/directory ACLs) is implemented; retest it when identities, policies, service capacity or network paths change.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The incident (employees can reach the SMB endpoint but are denied access to a protected directory despite having a share role) could recur if a related Azure dependency changes. The design still faces the limitation: Share-level access alone does not override more restrictive file or directory ACLs.

C:

The successful check 'Mount the share as an entitled user and read the approved folder' proves only the tested behavior and cannot eliminate every dependent failure. The specific remaining limitation is: Share-level access alone does not override more restrictive file or directory ACLs.

D:

The two checks cover separate behavior: 'Mount the share as an entitled user and read the approved folder' and 'Test an unentitled user against the same path and confirm access is denied'. Neither check removes the remaining operational limitation: Share-level access alone does not override more restrictive file or directory ACLs.

Question 181

During an Azure migration, consider this case: A data platform must replicate selected block blobs from one storage account to a different account under an asynchronous object replication policy. The requirement is: configure object-level replication between eligible source and destination containers. Which change most directly satisfies the team?

  1. Configure Azure Files share snapshots as a substitute for blob replication.
  2. Use Azure RBAC Reader alone and assume replication configuration appears automatically.
  3. Enable the required blob versioning and source change feed, then configure supported object replication rules between accounts.
  4. Enable a single snapshot on one blob and assume all new objects replicate automatically.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Object replication depends on version history and change tracking and operates asynchronously on eligible blobs. This achieves configure object-level replication between eligible source and destination containers through enable the required blob versioning and source change feed, then configure supported object replication rules between accounts instead of relying on merely similar resource settings.

Incorrect Answers

A:

File share snapshots target a different storage service; that would not meet configure object-level replication between eligible source and destination containers, for which the relevant Azure action is enable the required blob versioning and source change feed, then configure supported object replication rules between accounts.

B:

A role assignment is permission, not replication enablement; that would not meet configure object-level replication between eligible source and destination containers, for which the relevant Azure action is enable the required blob versioning and source change feed, then configure supported object replication rules between accounts.

D:

Snapshots are point-in-time copies, not an object replication policy; that would not meet configure object-level replication between eligible source and destination containers, for which the relevant Azure action is enable the required blob versioning and source change feed, then configure supported object replication rules between accounts.

Question 182

After a deployment the owner reports: New block blobs stop appearing at the destination despite an intended object replication rule. Which diagnosis should the administrator verify before making unrelated changes?

  1. Required versioning, change feed, or the active object replication policy was not configured correctly.
  2. The selected redundancy keeps copies in one local fault domain instead of independent zones.
  3. The account identity cannot unwrap or retrieve the customer-managed key under the configured encryption dependency.
  4. The account uses GRS rather than a read-access geo-redundant configuration.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The trace reports: New block blobs stop appearing at the destination despite an intended object replication rule. The causal misconfiguration is: Required versioning, change feed, or the active object replication policy was not configured correctly. The targeted action is to enable the prerequisites and correct the source/destination container replication policy.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The selected redundancy keeps copies in one local fault domain instead of independent zones; that mechanism would be more consistent with an observation such as the app's LRS data becomes inaccessible during a zone-level storage failure, rather than this case's new block blobs stop appearing at the destination despite an intended object replication rule.

C:

The account identity cannot unwrap or retrieve the customer-managed key under the configured encryption dependency. That mechanism would be more consistent with an observation such as the storage account cannot read encrypted blobs after its key vault access permission is revoked, rather than this case's new block blobs stop appearing at the destination despite an intended object replication rule.

D:

The account uses GRS rather than a read-access geo-redundant configuration; that mechanism would be more consistent with an observation such as the application cannot read from the secondary endpoint before failover even though geo-replication is configured, rather than this case's new block blobs stop appearing at the destination despite an intended object replication rule.

Question 183

An administrator has isolated a problem: New block blobs stop appearing at the destination despite an intended object replication rule. What should be changed to correct it without unnecessary redesign?

  1. Enable the prerequisites and correct the source/destination container replication policy.
  2. Use Azure RBAC Reader alone and assume replication configuration appears automatically.
  3. Enable a single snapshot on one blob and assume all new objects replicate automatically.
  4. Configure Azure Files share snapshots as a substitute for blob replication.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Enable the prerequisites and correct the source/destination container replication policy. This addresses the documented failure condition: required versioning, change feed, or the active object replication policy was not configured correctly. Retest the affected operation and retain the original least-privilege boundaries.

Incorrect Answers

B:

A role assignment is permission, not replication enablement. In the reported incident (new block blobs stop appearing at the destination despite an intended object replication rule), that change would not correct the cause: required versioning, change feed, or the active object replication policy was not configured correctly.

C:

Snapshots are point-in-time copies, not an object replication policy. In the reported incident (new block blobs stop appearing at the destination despite an intended object replication rule), that change would not correct the cause: required versioning, change feed, or the active object replication policy was not configured correctly.

D:

File share snapshots target a different storage service. In the reported incident (new block blobs stop appearing at the destination despite an intended object replication rule), that change would not correct the cause: required versioning, change feed, or the active object replication policy was not configured correctly.

Question 184

The owner requests release evidence for: configure object-level replication between eligible source and destination containers. Given this case: A data platform must replicate selected block blobs from one storage account to a different account under an asynchronous object replication policy. Which TWO checks test the intended boundary? Select TWO answers.

  1. Check that the Azure configuration exists, but never perform the actual test: Upload a test eligible block blob and observe its eventual destination version.
  2. Run 'Upload a test eligible block blob and observe its eventual destination version' only as an administrator in a separate subscription, then assume the affected workload behaves identically.
  3. Upload a test eligible block blob and observe its eventual destination version.
  4. Mark the test 'Update the source object and confirm the destination follows policy after asynchronous delay' as passed in the release plan without running it.
  5. Update the source object and confirm the destination follows policy after asynchronous delay.

Explanation

Correct Answers

C:

Upload a test eligible block blob and observe its eventual destination version. This supplies observed evidence for configure object-level replication between eligible source and destination containers. It is not interchangeable with the second required check, update the source object and confirm the destination follows policy after asynchronous delay, because that checks a separate success or failure boundary.

E:

Update the source object and confirm the destination follows policy after asynchronous delay. This supplies observed evidence for configure object-level replication between eligible source and destination containers. It is not interchangeable with the second required check, upload a test eligible block blob and observe its eventual destination version, because that checks a separate success or failure boundary.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A configured resource is not proof of live behavior. The required check must exercise upload a test eligible block blob and observe its eventual destination version on the affected Azure deployment.

B:

A privileged administrator in a different subscription may succeed at 'Upload a test eligible block blob and observe its eventual destination version' even though the intended caller fails. This does not prove the required behavior for upload a test eligible block blob and observe its eventual destination version.

D:

A release checklist recording 'Update the source object and confirm the destination follows policy after asynchronous delay' is not evidence that the required operation actually succeeded or failed. To establish the correct result, the team must update the source object and confirm the destination follows policy after asynchronous delay on the actual workload to prove its independent boundary.

Question 185

The cloud team needs a bounded claim about: configure object-level replication between eligible source and destination containers. Which statement avoids promising more than the control supplies?

  1. Object replication is asynchronous and does not provide a synchronous, zero-loss database mirror.
  2. After the selected Azure change, a passing check for 'Upload a test eligible block blob and observe its eventual destination version' proves every dependent permission and service will keep working.
  3. A successful run of 'Upload a test eligible block blob and observe its eventual destination version' means the separate check 'Update the source object and confirm the destination follows policy after asynchronous delay' is redundant.
  4. The earlier issue, 'New block blobs stop appearing at the destination despite an intended object replication rule', can never recur once this single correction has been deployed.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Object replication is asynchronous and does not provide a synchronous, zero-loss database mirror. That remains a practical service boundary even after the recommended change (enable the required blob versioning and source change feed, then configure supported object replication rules between accounts) is implemented; retest it when identities, policies, service capacity or network paths change.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The successful check 'Upload a test eligible block blob and observe its eventual destination version' proves only the tested behavior and cannot eliminate every dependent failure. The specific remaining limitation is: Object replication is asynchronous and does not provide a synchronous, zero-loss database mirror.

C:

The two checks cover separate behavior: 'Upload a test eligible block blob and observe its eventual destination version' and 'Update the source object and confirm the destination follows policy after asynchronous delay'. Neither check removes the remaining operational limitation: Object replication is asynchronous and does not provide a synchronous, zero-loss database mirror.

D:

The incident (new block blobs stop appearing at the destination despite an intended object replication rule) could recur if a related Azure dependency changes. The design still faces the limitation: Object replication is asynchronous and does not provide a synchronous, zero-loss database mirror.

Question 186

A production subscription has this use case: A disaster recovery team wants object data replicated asynchronously to another Azure region and read access to the secondary while the primary is healthy. The owner specifies: select read-access geo-redundancy rather than a zone-only replication scheme. What is the best administrative approach?

  1. Use GRS without read access and assume normal reads to the secondary always work.
  2. Choose ZRS and assume it replicates to a second Azure region.
  3. Copy files to another container within the same account and call it geo-redundancy.
  4. Configure read-access geo-redundant storage (RA-GRS) where supported.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

RA-GRS maintains asynchronous cross-region copies and exposes a read-only secondary endpoint. This achieves select read-access geo-redundancy rather than a zone-only replication scheme through configure read-access geo-redundant storage (RA-GRS) where supported instead of relying on merely similar resource settings.

Incorrect Answers

A:

GRS secondary is not normally exposed for routine read operations; that would not meet select read-access geo-redundancy rather than a zone-only replication scheme, for which the relevant Azure action is configure read-access geo-redundant storage (RA-GRS) where supported.

B:

ZRS spans zones in a single region; that would not meet select read-access geo-redundancy rather than a zone-only replication scheme, for which the relevant Azure action is configure read-access geo-redundant storage (RA-GRS) where supported.

C:

Containers share the account's regional redundancy configuration; that would not meet select read-access geo-redundancy rather than a zone-only replication scheme, for which the relevant Azure action is configure read-access geo-redundant storage (RA-GRS) where supported.

Question 187

An Azure administrator is investigating this symptom: The application cannot read from the secondary endpoint before failover even though geo-replication is configured. Which root cause best matches the underlying requirement: select read-access geo-redundancy rather than a zone-only replication scheme?

  1. The secondary read endpoint was enabled for client reads and successfully served the requested objects before failover.
  2. The selected redundancy keeps copies in one local fault domain instead of independent zones.
  3. The account identity cannot unwrap or retrieve the customer-managed key under the configured encryption dependency.
  4. The account uses GRS rather than a read-access geo-redundant configuration.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The trace reports: The application cannot read from the secondary endpoint before failover even though geo-replication is configured. The causal misconfiguration is: The account uses GRS rather than a read-access geo-redundant configuration. The targeted action is to use RA-GRS or a supported read-access geo option and update the client read endpoint as needed.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The proposed mechanism concerns the secondary read endpoint was enabled for client reads and successfully served the requested objects before failover, which is not established by the observed the application cannot read from the secondary endpoint before failover even though geo-replication is configured. Test the more directly supported condition: The account uses GRS rather than a read-access geo-redundant configuration.

B:

The selected redundancy keeps copies in one local fault domain instead of independent zones; that mechanism would be more consistent with an observation such as the app's LRS data becomes inaccessible during a zone-level storage failure, rather than this case's the application cannot read from the secondary endpoint before failover even though geo-replication is configured.

C:

The account identity cannot unwrap or retrieve the customer-managed key under the configured encryption dependency. That mechanism would be more consistent with an observation such as the storage account cannot read encrypted blobs after its key vault access permission is revoked, rather than this case's the application cannot read from the secondary endpoint before failover even though geo-replication is configured.

Question 188

An Azure rollout fails because: The application cannot read from the secondary endpoint before failover even though geo-replication is configured. Which change most directly restores the intended control?

  1. Use RA-GRS or a supported read-access geo option and update the client read endpoint as needed.
  2. Copy files to another container within the same account and call it geo-redundancy.
  3. Use GRS without read access and assume normal reads to the secondary always work.
  4. Choose ZRS and assume it replicates to a second Azure region.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Use RA-GRS or a supported read-access geo option and update the client read endpoint as needed. This addresses the documented failure condition: the account uses GRS rather than a read-access geo-redundant configuration. Retest the affected operation and retain the original least-privilege boundaries.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Containers share the account's regional redundancy configuration. In the reported incident (the application cannot read from the secondary endpoint before failover even though geo-replication is configured), that change would not correct the cause: the account uses GRS rather than a read-access geo-redundant configuration.

C:

GRS secondary is not normally exposed for routine read operations. In the reported incident (the application cannot read from the secondary endpoint before failover even though geo-replication is configured), that change would not correct the cause: the account uses GRS rather than a read-access geo-redundant configuration.

D:

ZRS spans zones in a single region. In the reported incident (the application cannot read from the secondary endpoint before failover even though geo-replication is configured), that change would not correct the cause: the account uses GRS rather than a read-access geo-redundant configuration.

Question 189

For the configuration goal, select read-access geo-redundancy rather than a zone-only replication scheme. The Azure context is: A disaster recovery team wants object data replicated asynchronously to another Azure region and read access to the secondary while the primary is healthy. Which TWO observations provide useful assurance? Select TWO answers.

  1. Read an existing object through the read-only secondary endpoint in a test.
  2. Run 'Read an existing object through the read-only secondary endpoint in a test' only as an administrator in a separate subscription, then assume the affected workload behaves identically.
  3. Mark the test 'Confirm writes still target the permitted primary endpoint rather than the secondary' as passed in the release plan without running it.
  4. Confirm writes still target the permitted primary endpoint rather than the secondary.
  5. Check that the Azure configuration exists, but never perform the actual test: Read an existing object through the read-only secondary endpoint in a test.

Explanation

Correct Answers

A:

Read an existing object through the read-only secondary endpoint in a test. This supplies observed evidence for select read-access geo-redundancy rather than a zone-only replication scheme. It is not interchangeable with the second required check, confirm writes still target the permitted primary endpoint rather than the secondary, because that checks a separate success or failure boundary.

D:

Confirm writes still target the permitted primary endpoint rather than the secondary. This supplies observed evidence for select read-access geo-redundancy rather than a zone-only replication scheme. It is not interchangeable with the second required check, read an existing object through the read-only secondary endpoint in a test, because that checks a separate success or failure boundary.

Incorrect Answers

B:

A privileged administrator in a different subscription may succeed at 'Read an existing object through the read-only secondary endpoint in a test' even though the intended caller fails. This does not prove the required behavior for read an existing object through the read-only secondary endpoint in a test.

C:

A release checklist recording 'Confirm writes still target the permitted primary endpoint rather than the secondary' is not evidence that the required operation actually succeeded or failed. To establish the correct result, the team must confirm writes still target the permitted primary endpoint rather than the secondary on the actual workload to prove its independent boundary.

E:

A configured resource is not proof of live behavior. The required check must exercise read an existing object through the read-only secondary endpoint in a test on the affected Azure deployment.

Question 190

A stakeholder asks whether the proposed configuration guarantees: select read-access geo-redundancy rather than a zone-only replication scheme. What qualification is technically accurate?

  1. A successful run of 'Read an existing object through the read-only secondary endpoint in a test' means the separate check 'Confirm writes still target the permitted primary endpoint rather than the secondary' is redundant.
  2. The earlier issue, 'The application cannot read from the secondary endpoint before failover even though geo-replication is configured', can never recur once this single correction has been deployed.
  3. After the selected Azure change, a passing check for 'Read an existing object through the read-only secondary endpoint in a test' proves every dependent permission and service will keep working.
  4. Asynchronous cross-region replication can have lag; the secondary may not contain the newest writes.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Asynchronous cross-region replication can have lag; the secondary may not contain the newest writes. That remains a practical service boundary even after the recommended change (configure read-access geo-redundant storage (RA-GRS) where supported) is implemented; retest it when identities, policies, service capacity or network paths change.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The two checks cover separate behavior: 'Read an existing object through the read-only secondary endpoint in a test' and 'Confirm writes still target the permitted primary endpoint rather than the secondary'. Neither check removes the remaining operational limitation: Asynchronous cross-region replication can have lag; the secondary may not contain the newest writes.

B:

The incident (the application cannot read from the secondary endpoint before failover even though geo-replication is configured) could recur if a related Azure dependency changes. The design still faces the limitation: Asynchronous cross-region replication can have lag; the secondary may not contain the newest writes.

C:

The successful check 'Read an existing object through the read-only secondary endpoint in a test' proves only the tested behavior and cannot eliminate every dependent failure. The specific remaining limitation is: Asynchronous cross-region replication can have lag; the secondary may not contain the newest writes.
