Exam AZ-204 topic 2 question 36 discussion

I think the printed image is creating confusion. The correct answers (according to the image) are: WEBSITES_ENABLE_APP_SERVICE_STORAGE=true DIAGDATA=/home

Given answer correct.

The answer is correct, but explanation is not: If WEBSITES_ENABLE_APP_SERVICE_STORAGE setting is unspecified or set to false, the /home/ directory will not be shared across scale instances, and files written will not persist across restarts. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/azure/app-service/faqs-app-service-linux#i-m-using-my-own-custom-container--i-want-the-platform-to-mount-an-smb-share-to-the---home---directory-

The answer is correct https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/reference-app-settings?tabs=kudu%2Cdotnet#custom-containers

Custom container itself is a dark area of app service and expecting human beings to remember the property names and the possible values for these settings is very remarkable.

I have to just remember all these properties? Are developers not allowed to use documentation in real life? Does search work in Redmond? Microsoft should really think what exactly they achieve from these random questions without a thought on what they want the developers to know or remember.

WEBSITES_ENABLE_APP_SERVICE_STORAGE /home

Answer is correct: WEBSITES_ENABLE_APP_SERVICE_STORAGE=true DIAGDATA=/home

Can't D:/home and /home both be correct in this case??

Answer to both the options: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/configure-custom-container?pivots=container-windows#use-persistent-shared-storage

Here there is the specific documentation for this question: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/faq-app-service-linux#i-m-using-my-own-custom-container--i-want-the-platform-to-mount-an-smb-share-to-the---home---directory-

WEBSITES_ENABLE_APP_SERVICE_STORAGE=true By default, persistent storage is disabled on custom containers and the setting is exposed in the app settings. To enable it, set the WEBSITES_ENABLE_APP_SERVICE_STORAGE app setting value to true https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/configure-custom-container?pivots=container-linux DIAGDATA=/home You can use the /home directory in your custom container file system to persist files across restarts and share them across instances. The /home directory is provided to enable your custom container to access persistent storage. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/configure-custom-container?pivots=container-linux

Correct Answer: If WEBSITES_ENABLE_APP_SERVICE_STORAGE setting is unspecified or set to false, the /home/ directory will not be shared across scale instances, and files written will not persist across restarts. Explicitly setting WEBSITES_ENABLE_APP_SERVICE_STORAGE to true will enable the mount. Box 1: WEBSITES_ENABLE_APP_SERVICE_STORAGE Box 2: /home Reference: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/containers/app-service-linux-faq

WEBSITES_ENABLE_APP_SERVICE_STORAGE=true DIAGDATA=/home

On Windows the directory would be C:\home. Since this is not mentioned in possible answers, we are on Linux environment and the answer is correct. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/configure-custom-container?pivots=container-windows#use-persistent-shared-storage

WEBSITES_ENABLE_APP_SERVICE_STORAGE=true DIAGDATA=/home

First box is correct but the second box should be 'true'. Please refer the link which is given in the explanation!
