Q157: How should you calculate the monthly uptime percentage? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. A1: Downtime in Minutes A2: Maximum Available Minutes A3: (Maximum Available Minutes - Downtime in Minutes) DIVIDED BY B1: 60 B2: 1440 B3: Maximum Available Minutes TIMES C1: 100 C2: 99,99 C3: 1.440

"Maximum Available Minutes" is the total accumulated minutes during a billing month . "Downtime" is the total accumulated minutes that are part of Maximum Available Minutes where a system is unavailable. "Monthly Uptime Percentage" for a service is calculated as Maximum Available Minutes less Downtime divided by Maximum Available Minutes x 100. Monthly Uptime Percentage is represented by the following formula: Monthly Uptime % = (Maximum Available Minutes-Downtime) / Maximum Available Minutes x 100.

Q1: Yes - A reservation is where you commit to pay for a resource (for example a virtual machine) for one or three years. This gives you a discounted price on the resource for the reservation period. Q2: No - There are other factors that influence the cost of a virtual machine such as the virtual hard disks attached to the virtual machine. You could have multiple virtual machines with the same "size" (B2S in this case) but with different virtual hard disk configurations. Q3: Yes - When a virtual machine is stopped (deallocated), the virtual machine is unloaded/dismounted from the physical server in Azure. In this state, you are not charged for the virtual machine itself. However, you are still charged for the storage costs of the virtual hard disks attached to the virtual machine. If the virtual machine is stopped but not deallocated (this happens if you shut down the virtual machine from the operating system of the virtual machine), the virtual machine is still mounted on the physical server in Azure and you are charged for the virtual machine itself as well as the storage costs. To ensure that a virtual machine is "stopped (deallocated)", you need to stop the virtual machine in the Azure portal.
