You have an Azure subscription that contains a
virtual machine named VM1. VM1 hosts a line-of-business application that is available 24 hours a day. VM1 has one network interface and one managed disk. VM1 uses the D4s v3 size.
You plan to make the following changes to VM1:
Change the size to D8s v3.
Add a 500-GB managed disk.
Add the Puppet Agent extension.
Attach an additional network interface.
Which change will cause downtime for VM1?
A. Add a 500-GB managed disk.
B. Attach an additional network interface.
C. Add the Puppet Agent extension.
D. Ch
ange the size to D8s v3.
Explanation:
While resizing the VM it must be in a stopped state.

Wrong. You can resize VMs in the same family to larger or smaller SKUs.
The answer is B.
Source: I tested it instead of putting my guess out for other people who are studying.
Error: Virtual machine vnet-rg/providers/Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines/linux01′>linux01 with a single network interface must be stop-deallocated before it can be updated to have multiple network interfaces and vice-versa.

Every resize needs a reboot of the vm. From the portal you see the available sizes (the ones related to the vm family) if you stop the vm you have all the sizes of all the families. But when you resize the vm reboots. You can add a network interface without any downtime. The error you got is because your vm is in an availability group. But this is not a requirement of the question. So the right answer is D.
