Deploying 2 RGs, 4 VMs in RG1, and 2SQL in RG2 is very much possible in a single template. So the Answer should be A.Yes Friends please suggest

Only if the 2 Resource Groups exist. The requirement is to create 2 RGs, so you cant do that in a single template

I think it is no based on this answer. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/templates/deploy-to-resource-group?tabs=azure-cli#deploy-to-multiple-resource-groups

Haxaffe might be right. The docs say "If you set resourceGroup to the name of a resource group that doesn't exist, the deployment fails."

Yes you're right, the question is quite ambiguous. Three possible ways but the best is having linked templates.

"Single standalone template" So the answer is NO, will will need linked/nested templates to achieve this.

I think answer should be Yes. This can be achieved in 1 template and we can use the "Depends On" clause in the template for all other resources under the 2 RGs so they will be created only after the 2 RGs get created. This works also in Terraform in the same manner.

Selected Answer: B
Deploying to multiple resource groups requires linked templates so answer is no. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/templates/deploy-to-resource-group?tabs=azure-cli#deploy-to-multiple-resource-groups. --------From the article------------------ You can deploy to 800 resource groups in a single deployment. Typically, this limitation means you can deploy to one resource group specified for the parent template, and up to 799 resource groups in nested or linked deployments. However, if your parent template contains only nested or linked templates and does not itself deploy any resources, then you can include up to 800 resource groups in nested or linked deployments. -

Answer is No To deploy your solution, you can use either a single template or a main template with many related templates. The related template can be either a separate file that is linked to from the main template or a template that is nested within the main template.

In a series of questions which this one belongs, typically is there only one correct answer in the series? Since most agree that "Create a main template that has two linked templates, each of which will deploy the resources in its respective group." is the correct, best answer, does that mean all the others should be No. Or, is it possible for these series of questions to have multiple correct answers?

Selected Answer: B
Answer is correct. To create a resource group and related resources you need to create the resource group in the main template and the resources in a nested or linked template. You can't create the resources in the same template because to create resource groups in arm template you have to change the schema with the subscription as a scope. "$schema": "https://schema.management.azure.com/schemas/2018-05-01/subscriptionDeploymentTemplate.json#" https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/templates/deploy-to-subscription?tabs=azure-cli#resource-groups
