DRAG DROP
You are building a new Always On Availability Group in Microsoft Azure. The corporate domain controllers
(DCs) are attached to a virtual network named ProductionNetwork. The DCs are part of an availability set
named ProductionServers1.
You create the first node of the availability group and add it to an availability set named ProductionServers2.
The availability group node is a virtual machine (VM) that runs Microsoft SQL Server. You attach the node toProductionNetwork.
The servers in the availability group must be directly accessible only by other company VMs in Azure.
You need to configure the second SQL Server VM for the availability group.
How should you configure the VM? To answer, drag the appropriate configuration settings to the correct target
locations. Each configuration setting may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag
the split bar between panes or scroll to view content.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

HOTSPOT
You plan to migrate a Microsoft SQL Server workload from an on-premises server to a Microsoft Azure virtual
machine (VM). The current server contains 4 cores with an average CPU workload of 6 percent and a peak
workload of 10 percent when using 2.4Ghz processors.
You gather the following metrics:

You need to design a SQL Server VM to support the migration while minimizing costs.
For each setting, which value should you use? To answer, select the appropriate storage option from each list
in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

HOTSPOT
You use Resource Manager to deploy a new Microsoft SQL Server instance in a Microsoft Azure virtual
machine (VM) that uses Premium storage. The combined initial size of the SQL Server user database files is
expected to be over 200 gigabytes (GB). You must maximize performance for the database files and the log
file.
You add the following additional drive volumes to the VM:

You have the following requirements:
Maximize performance of the SQL Server instance.
Use Premium storage when possible.
You need to deploy the SQL instance.
In the table below, identify the drive where you must store each SQL Server file type.
