Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution that might meet the stated goals. Some question sets might have more than one correct solution, while others might not have a correct solution.
After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result, these questions will not appear in the review screen.
You have an Azure Storage account that contains two 1-GB data files named File1 and File2. The data files are set to use the archive access tier.
You need to ensure that File1 is accessible immediately when a retrieval request is initiated.
Solution: For File1, you set Access tier to Hot.
Does this meet the goal?

  • A. Yes
  • B. No
Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A 🗳️
The hot access tier has higher storage costs than cool and archive tiers, but the lowest access costs. Example usage scenarios for the hot access tier include:
✑ Data that's in active use or expected to be accessed (read from and written to) frequently.
✑ Data that's staged for processing and eventual migration to the cool access tier.

The Answer is correct and to clear up the confusion. File != File Share In this case the File should be called a blob Archive Tier is only available for Blob Storage and Blob Containers In a Blob Container you can set the Access-Tier per blob

While the answwer is correct, the question is bad. Because they start with saying that both files are set to use Archive tier. This is enough to confuse.

"You need to ensure that File1 is accessible immediately when ***a retrieval request is initiated***." If it is in archive, even changing to Hot is impossible to be immediately available, isn´t it?

This is a series of question, each one will provide different solutions and we have to check if the solution will meet the goal or not. Both hot and cool are correct. Maybe on next question, the solution that will be provide is "Hot"

This is really confusing. YES - you set the Hot tier but NO - you can't set it for file, you set it for the whole storage. I guess the expected answer here is still A (Yes) but the question itself is incorrect

Disregard that. It's possible to set the tier per file. The answer Yes is correct

You're right: "Storage accounts have a default access tier setting that indicates the online tier in which a new blob is created. The default access tier setting can be set to either Hot or Cool. Users can override the default setting for an individual blob when uploading the blob or changing its tier". https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/access-tiers-overview
