AZ 104 Exam Prep
You have an Azure subscription. An administrator manages access to resources at the resource group level. The assignment process is automated by running the following PowerShell script nightly. $rg = "RG1" $RoleName = "CustomRole1" $Role = Get-AzRoleDefinition -Name $RoleName New-AzRoleAssignment -SignInName [email protected] ` -RoleDefinitionName $Role.Name ` -ResourceGroupName $rg User1 is unable to access the RG1 resource group. You discover that the script fails to complete for new users. You run Get-AzRoleDefinition | Format-Table -Property Name, Id and receive the following information: Name: Custom Role 1, ID: 111-222-333 Name: Owner, ID: 222-333-444 Name: Contributor, ID: 333-444-555 Name: Reader, ID: 666-777-888 You need to modify the script to ensure that it does not fail in the future. What should you change in the script?
$RoleName = "111-222-333" (You should use the ID of the role in case the role name was changed to prevent such a change from breaking the script. Assign Azure roles using Azure PowerShell - Azure RBAC)
You have an Azure subscription that contains two resource groups named RG1 and RG2. RG1 contains the following resources: A virtual network named VNet1 located in the East US Azure region A network security group (NSG) named NSG1 located in the West US Azure region RG2 contains the following resources: A virtual network named VNet2 located in the East US Azure region A virtual network named VNet3 located in the West US Azure region You need to apply NSG1. To which subnets can you apply NSG1?
the subnets of VNet3 only (You can assign an NSG to the subnet of the virtual network in the same region as the NSG and NSG1 is in the West US region.)

You have an Azure subscription that contains a resource group named RG1. RG1 contains an Azure virtual machine named VM1. You need to use VM1 as a template to create a new Azure virtual machine. Which three methods can you use to complete the task?
- From Azure Cloud Shell, run the Save-AzDeploymentTemplate and New-AzResourceGroupDeployment cmdlets. - From RG1, select Export template, select Download, and then, from Azure Cloud Shell, run the New-AzResourceGroupDeployment cmdlet. - From VM1, select Export template, and then select Deploy.
You need to generate the shared access signature (SAS) token required to authorize a request to a resource.Which two parameters are required for the SAS token? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution)
- SignedResourceTypes (srt) - SignedServices (ss) (SignedServices (ss) is required to refer blobs, queues, tables, and files. SignedResourceTypes (srt) is required to refer services, containers, or objects. SignedStart (st) is an optional parameter that refers to the time when the SAS becomes valid. If unmentioned, the start time is assumed to be the time when the storage service receives the request. SignedIP (sip) is an optional parameter that refers to the range of IP addresses from which to accept requests.)
You have two premium block blob Azure Storage accounts named storage1 and storage2. You need to configure object replication from storage1 to storage2. Which three features should be enabled before configuring object replication?
- blob versioning for storage1 - blob versioning for storage2 - change feed for storage1 (Object replication can be used to replicate blobs between storage accounts. Before configuring object replication, you must enable blob versioning for both storage accounts, and you must enable the change feed for the source account.)
You have an Azure Resource Manager (ARM) template named deploy.json that is stored in an Azure Blob storage container. You plan to deploy the template by running the New-AzDeployment cmdlet. Which parameter should you use to reference the template?
-TemplateUri (You can use the -TemplateUri parameter to specify a web-based location, such as GitHub or an Azure Blob Storage account. You can use -Templatefile to specify a local file.)

2
You plan to provision an Azure subscription that will contain the following virtual networks: VNet1 in the East US Azure region with two subnets VNet2 in the East US region with four subnets VNet3 in the West Europe Azure region with four subnets VNet4 in the West Europe region with two subnets How many Azure Network Watcher instances will be provisioned as part of the deployment?
2 (Azure Network Watcher is a regional service that allows you to monitor and diagnose conditions at a network scenario level in, to, and from Azure. When you create or update a virtual network in a subscription, Network Watcher will be enabled automatically in the virtual network's region. There is no impact on resources or associated charges for automatically enabling Network Watcher)
You have an Azure Storage account that contains a file share. Several users work from a secure location that limits outbound traffic to the internet.You need to ensure that the users at the secure location can access the file share in Azure. Which outbound port should you allow from the secure location?
445 (For accessing the file share, port 445 must be open. Port 5671 is used to send health information to Azure AD. (It is recommended, but not required, in the latest versions.) Port 80 is used to download certificate revocation lists (CRLs) to verify TLS/SSL certificates. Port 443 is used to sync with Azure AD.)
You have an Azure subscription that contains a virtual network named VNet1 and a virtual machine named VM1. VM1 can only be accessed from the internal network. An external contractor needs access to VM1. The solution must minimize administrative effort. What should you configure?
A Public IP address (To share a virtual machine with an external user, you must add a public IP address to the virtual machine. An additional IP address or firewall configuration will not help in this case. Configuring a S2S VPN does not have minimal administrative effort.)
You have an Azure subscription that contains a virtual network named VNet1. You plan to enable VNet1 connectivity to on-premises resources by using an encrypted connection. What should you configure for VNet1?
A VPN (A VPN gateway is a type of virtual network gateway that sends encrypted traffic between a virtual network and an on-premises location across a public connection. You can also use a VPN gateway to send traffic between virtual networks across the Azure backbone. A VPN gateway connection relies on the configuration of multiple resources, each of which contains configurable settings.)
You plan to use the following two Azure Resource Manager (ARM) templates to provision virtual machines: Template.json { "$schema": "https://schema.management.azure.com/schemas/2019-04-01/deploymentTemplate.json#", "contentVersion": "1.0.0.0", "parameters": { "adminUsername": { "type": "string", "metadata": { "description": "User name for the Virtual Machine." } }, "adminPassword": { "type": "securestring", "metadata": { "description": "Password for the Virtual Machine." } }, "dnsLabelPrefix": { "type": "string", "defaultValue": "[concat('vm-', uniqueString(resourceGroup().id))]", "metadata": { "description": "Unique DNS Name for the Public IP used to access the Virtual Machine." } }, ... { "apiVersion": "2019-12-01", "type": "Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines", "name": "[variables('vmName')]", "location": "[parameters('location')]", "dependsOn": [ "[variables('storageAccountName')]", "[variables('nicName')]" ], "pro
Access Policy Azure Key Vault

Add an NS record set named test to the contoso.com zone. (You must create a DNS NS record set named test in the contoso.com zone. An NS zone must be created at the apex of the zone named contoso.com. You do not need to create the SOA record set in test.contoso.com. It must only be created in contoso.com. You do not need to create or modify the DNS A record.)
You have an Azure subscription that contains 200 virtual machines. You plan to use Azure Advisor to provide cost recommendations when underutilized virtual machines are detected. You need to ensure that all Azure admins are notified whenever an Advisor alert is generated. The solution must minimize administrative effort. What should you configure?
An Action Group (Whenever Azure Advisor detects a new recommendation for resources, an event is stored in the Azure Activity log. You can set up alerts for these events from Azure Advisor. You can select a subscription and optionally a resource group to specify the resources for which you want to receive alerts. You also need to create an action group that will contain all the users to be notified.)

Archive
You have an Azure AD tenant.Your company has several offices in the same region. Each office has a dedicated IT staff. You need to ensure that the IT staff in each office can manage passwords for their users and administrators. Which two actions should you perform? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution.)
Assign the Helpdesk Administrator role. From the Azure portal, add administrative units. (You must create an administrative unit and the Helpdesk role assignment allows members to change password for both users and other administrators.)
You have an Azure Storage account named corpimages and an on-premises shared folder named \\server1\images. You need to migrate all the contents from \\server1\images to corpimages. Which two commands can you use?
Azcopy copy \\server1\images https://corpimages.blog.core.windows.net/public -recursive Get-ChildItem -Path \\server1\images -Recurse | Set-AzStorageBlobContent -Container " corpimages" (The AzCopy command allows you to copy all files to a storage account. You then use Get-ChildItem with the path parameter, recurse to select everything, and then use the Set-AzureStorageBlobContent cmdlet.)

You have an Azure subscription that contains a web app named App1. You configure App1 with a custom domain name of webapp1.contoso.com. You need to create a DNS record for App1. The solution must ensure that App1 remains accessible if the IP address changes. Which type of DNS record should you create?
CNAME (For web apps, you create either an A (Address) record or a CNAME (Canonical Name) record. An A record maps a domain name to an IP address. A CNAME record maps a domain name to another domain name. DNS uses the second name to look up the address. Users still see the first domain name in their browser. If the IP address changes, a CNAME entry is still valid, whereas an A record must be updated.)
You have an Azure virtual machine that you back up by using Azure Backup. The backup policy sub type is Standard, and the backup policy has the following configurations Backup schedule frequency: Weekly Retain instant recovery snapshot(s) for: 5 days Retention of weekly backup point: On Sunday at 8:00 AM for 12 weeks You plan to reduce the amount of storage used by Instant Restore. You need to instance recovery snapshots to be retained for only two days. What should you do first?
Change the backup frequency to Daily (You can choose to store between one and five instant recovery snapshots and the default value is two. However, when the backup schedule frequency is weekly, you must retain five instant recovery snapshots.)
You have an Azure subscription that contains four virtual machines. Each virtual machine is connected to a subnet on a different virtual network. You install the DNS Server role on a virtual machine named VM1. You configure each virtual network to use the IP address of VM1 as the DNS server. You need to ensure that all four virtual machines can resolve IP addresses by using VM1. What should you do?
Configure network peering. (By default, Azure virtual machines can communicate only with other virtual machines that are connected to the same virtual network. If you want a virtual machine to communicate with other virtual machines that are connected to other virtual networks, you must configure network peering.)
You have an Azure subscription and a user named User1. You need to assign User1 a role that allows the user to create and manage all types of resources in the subscription. The solution must prevent User1 from assigning roles to other users. Which Azure role-based access control (RBAC) role should you assign to User1?
Contributor
