Correct Answer: Box 1: No A sync group contains one cloud endpoint, or Azure file share, and at least one server endpoint. Box 2: No Azure File Sync does not support more than one server endpoint from the same server in the same Sync Group. Box 3: Yes Multiple server endpoints can exist on the same volume if their namespaces are not overlapping (for example, F:\sync1 and F:\sync2) and each endpoint is syncing to a unique sync group. Reference: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/110822/azure-file-sync-multiple-sync-directories-for-same.html https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/files/storage-sync-files-deployment-guide

This is correct (NNY). for those one who says the last one is N this is the explanation why it's yes: You can use file sync also as a hub for different server. Imagine you have 2 server, 1 in japan (A) and 1 in the us (B). On server A, you have a D: with some data, on Server B, you have D: with some other data. You can sync those different with azure file sync, so all those 2 different data will be synced across those 2 server. You don't need to create a second sync group.

It has just one sync service and group, so however you say it, there is just one. It means that Box 2 N is against Box 3 Y. The correct answer is NNN.

I will just want to point out that you can actually have more than one server end point pointing to a single Sync group when we have more than one share drive on a single server, Like in this case , The answer is N,Y,Y. Note E:\folder2 & D:\folder1 are on the same server.

In case of Box 2 it can be Yes if both the server endpoints are on the same volume. (e.g; F:/folder 1 and F:/ folder 2). Since here it is one two different volumes it is No

That's correct (NO NO YES), because to add another server endpoint from the same server you need to have another sync group... "Multiple server endpoints can exist on the same volume if their namespaces are not overlapping (for example, F:\sync1 and F:\sync2) and each endpoint is syncing to a unique sync group."

I agree because I had tested it and sync group does not allow me to add the same registered server again in the endpoint.

Answer is correct: NO YES YES The documentation specifies the samve volume, not server. You can't have two server endpoints on the same volume in one sync group, but in this question, the volumes are D: and E:, so then you can have two server endpoints.

"A registered server can support multiple server endpoints, however a sync group can only have one server endpoint per registered server at any given time. Other server endpoints within the sync group must be on different registered servers." - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/file-sync/file-sync-deployment-guide?tabs=azure-portal%2Cproactive-portal. This is very specifically about servers not volumes, so No, No, Yes

But you cannot extend the existing endpoint, so you need to recreate it. Question is about adding Server 2 as an endpoint, but it is already an endpoint. "Once you add a server as an endpoint, you can’t add it again."

A registered server can support multiple server endpoints. However, a sync group can only have one server endpoint per registered server at any given time. Other server endpoints within the sync group must be on different registered servers. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/file-sync/file-sync-deployment-guide?tabs=azure-portal%2Cproactive-portal

share2 can be added as a cloud endpoint for Group1: No: Since Group1 is already using share1 as its cloud endpoint, you cannot add another cloud endpoint (share2) to the same sync group. A sync group can have only one cloud endpoint. E:\Folder2 on Server1 can be added as a server endpoint for Group1: Yes: You can add multiple server endpoints from the same server or different servers to the same sync group. Therefore, E:\Folder2 on Server1 can be added as an additional server endpoint for Group1. D:\Data on Server2 can be added as a server endpoint for Group1: Yes: You can add server endpoints from different servers to the same sync group. Therefore, D:\Data on Server2 can be added as a server endpoint for Group1

Question 2 appears to be => YES. See below: Server endpoint A server endpoint represents a specific location on a registered server, such as a folder on a server volume. Multiple server endpoints can exist on the same volume if their namespaces are unique (for example, F:\\sync1 and F:\\sync2). https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/modules/configure-azure-files-file-sync/6-identify-components
