Exam AWS Certified SysOps Administrator - Associate topic 1 question 374 discussion

Exam question from Amazon's AWS Certified SysOps Administrator - Associate
Question #: 374
Topic #: 1
[All AWS Certified SysOps Administrator - Associate Questions]

A company has users that deploy Amazon EC2 instances that have more disk performance capacity than is required. A SysOps administrator needs to review all Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volumes that are associated with the instances and create cost optimization recommendations based on IOPS and throughput.

What should the SysOps administrator do to meet these requirements in the MOST operationally efficient way?

  • A. Use the monitoring graphs in the EC2 console to view metrics for EBS volumes. Review the consumed space against the provisioned space on each volume. Identify any volumes that have low utilization.
  • B. Stop the EC2 instances from the EC2 console. Change the EC2 instance type for Amazon EBS-optimized. Start the EC2 instances.
  • C. Opt in to AWS Compute Optimizer. Allow sufficient time for metrics to be gathered. Review the Compute Optimizer findings for EBS volumes.
  • D. Install the fio tool onto the EC2 instances and create a .cfg file to approximate the required workloads. Use the benchmark results to gauge whether the provisioned EBS volumes are of the most appropriate type.

To help you right-size your EBS volumes, AWS Compute Optimizer analyzes your AWS resource utilization data collected by Amazon CloudWatch from the past 14 days (paid option available for up to three months of data) to identify the optimal resource configuration. These recommendations are available for your Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instances, EBS volumes, AWS Auto Scaling groups, AWS Lambda functions, and AWS Fargate.

A and D are no operationally efficient because the admin needs to invert time on it. B are the steps to get the issue resolved. Hence, C is the correct answer.
