Q1. - (Topic 4)
You need to recommend an appropriate solution for the data mining requirements. Which solution should you recommend?
A. Design a schedule process that allocates tasks to multiple virtual machines, and use the Azure Portal to create new VMs as needed.
B. Use Azure HPC Scheduler Tools to schedule jobs and automate scaling of virtual machines.
C. Use Traffic Manager to allocate tasks to multiple virtual machines, and use the Azure Portal to spin up new virtual machines as needed.
D. Use Windows Server HPC Pack on-premises to schedule jobs and automate scaling of virtual machines in Azure.
Answer: C
Explanation: * Microsoft Azure Traffic Manager allows you to control the distribution of user traffic to your specified endpoints, which can include Azure cloud services, websites, and other endpoints. Traffic Manager works by applying an intelligent policy engine to Domain Name System (DNS) queries for the domain names of your Internet resources. Your Azure cloud services or websites can be running in different datacenters across the world.
* Scenario:
Virtual machines:
. The data mining solution must support the use of hundreds to thousands of processing cores. . Minimize the number of virtual machines by using more powerful virtual machines. Each virtual machine must always have eight or more processor cores available. . Allow the number of processor cores dedicated to an analysis to grow and shrink automatically based on the demand of the analysis. . Virtual machines must use remote memory direct access to improve performance.
Task scheduling:
The solution must automatically schedule jobs. The scheduler must distribute the jobs based on the demand and available resources.

Answer:
Topic 3, Contoso, Ltd
Background
Overview
Contoso, Ltd., manufactures and sells golf clubs and golf balls. Contoso also sells golf accessories under the Contoso Golf and Odyssey brands worldwide.
Most of the company's IT infrastructure is located in the company's Carlsbad, California, headquarters. Contoso also has a sizable third-party colocation datacenter that costs the company USD $30,000 to $40,000 a month. Contoso has other servers scattered around the United States.
Contoso, Ltd., has the following goals:
Move many consumer-facing websites, enterprise databases, and enterprise web services to Azure.
Improve the performance for customers and resellers who are access company websites from around the world.
Provide support for provisioning resources to meet bursts of demand.
Consolidate and improve the utilization of website- and database-hosting resources.
Avoid downtime, particularly that caused by web and database server updating.
Leverage familiarity with Microsoft server management tools.
Infrastructure
Contoso's datacenters are filled with dozens of smaller web servers and databases that run on under-utilized hardware. This creates issues for data backup. Contoso currently backs up data to tape by using System Center Data Protection Manager. System Center Operations Manager is not deployed in the enterprise.
All of the servers are expensive to acquire and maintain, and scaling the infrastructure takes significant time. Contoso conducts weekly server maintenance, which causes downtime for some of its global offices. Special events, such as high-profile golf tournaments, create a large increase in site traffic. Contoso has difficulty scaling the webhosting environment fast enough to meet these surges in site traffic.
Contoso has resellers and consumers in Japan and China. These resellers must use applications that run in a datacenter that is located in the state of Texas, in the United States. Because of the physical distance, the resellers experience slow response times and downtime.

14. HOTSPOT - (Topic 3)
You need implement tools at the client's location for monitoring and deploying Azure resources.
Which tools should you use? To answer, select the appropriate on-premises tool for each task in the answer area.
Q4. - (Topic 6)
You are the administrator for a company named Contoso, Ltd.
Contoso also has an Azure subscription and uses many on-premises Active Directory products as roles in Windows Server including the following:
Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS)
Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS)
Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS)
Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS)
Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS).
Contoso must use the directory management services available in Azure Active Directory.
You need to provide information to Contoso on the similarities and differences between Azure Active Directory and the Windows Server Active Directory family of services.
Which feature does Azure Active Directory and on-premises Active Directory both support?
A. Using the GraphAPI to query the directory
B. Issuing user certificates
C. Supporting single sign-on (SSO)
D. Querying the directory with LDAP
Answer: C
Explanation: AD FS supports Web single-sign-on (SSO) technologies, and so does Azure
Active Directory.
If you want single sign on we usually suggest using ADFS if you’re a Windows shop. Going
forward though, Azure Active Directory is another alternative you can use.

Q5. - (Topic 1)
You need to assign permissions for the Virtual Machine workloads that you migrate to Azure.
The solution must use the principal of least privileges.
What should you do?
A. Create all VMs in the cloud service named Groupl and then connect to the Azure
subscription. Run the following Windows PowerShell command:
New-AzureRoleAssignment -Mail user1@vanarsdelltd.com -RoleDefinitionName
Contributor -ResourceGroupName group1
B. In the Azure portal, select an individual virtual machine and add an owner.
C. In the Azure portal, assign read permission to the user at the subscription level.
D. Create each VM in a separate cloud service and then connect to the Azure subscription.
Run the following Windows PowerShell command:
Get-AzureVM | New-AzureRoleAssignment -Mail userl@vanarsdelltd.com -
RoleDefinitionName Contributor
Answer: A
Explanation: * Scenario: Permissions must be assigned by using Role Based Access Control (RBAC).
* Role-Based access control (RBAC) in the Azure Portal and Azure Resource Management API allows you to manage access to your subscription at a fine-grained level. With this feature, you can grant access for Active Directory users, groups, or service principals by assigning some roles to them at a particular scope.
Create a role assignment
Use New-AzureRoleAssignment to create a role assignment.
Example: This will create a role assignment for a group at a resource group level.
PS C:> New-AzureRoleAssignment -ObjectID <group object ID> -RoleDefinitionName
Reader -ResourceGroupName group1

A. Create an automation account.
B. Create an Orchestrator runbook.
C. Create an asset credential.
D. Run the Invoke-Workflow Azure PowerShell cmdlet.
E. Import the SSH PowerShell Module.
Answer: A,C,E
Explanation: A: An Automation Account is a container for your Azure Automation resources: it provides a way to separate your environments or further organize your workflows. To create An Automation Account
1.
Log in to the Azure Management Portal.
2.
In the Management Portal, click Create an Automation Account.
3.
On the Add a New Automation Account page, enter a name and pick a region for the account.
Reference: Get started with Azure Automation http://azure.microsoft.com/en-gb/documentation/articles/automation-create-runbook-from-samples/
C:
*
Asset credentials are either a username and password combination that can be used with Windows PowerShell commands or a certificate that is uploaded to Azure Automation.
*
The Assets page in Automation displays the various resources (also called “settings”) that are globally available to be used in or associated with a runbook, plus commands to import an integration module, add a new asset, or delete an asset. Assets include variables, schedules, credentials, and connections.

Q8. - (Topic 6)
You are planning an upgrade strategy for an existing Azure application. Multiple instances of the application run in Azure. The management team is concerned about application downtime, due to a business service level agreement (SLA).
You are evaluating which change in your environment will require downtime.
You need to identify the changes to the environment that will force downtime.
Which change always requires downtime?
A. Adding an HTTPS endpoint to a web role
B. Upgrading the hosted service by deploying a new package
C. Changing the value of a configuration setting
D. Changing the virtual machine size
Answer: A
Explanation: If you change the number of endpoints for your service, for example by adding a HTTPS endpoint for your existing Web Role, it will require downtime.
