Exam AZ-140 topic 2 question 17 discussion

According to the reference articles, the answers are: 1 + Random machine The question states "The first time they connect" which means they dont have an assigned VM yet. The "first time they connect" they will be randomly assigned an available session host which completes the registration. Any future connections will then be a permanent VM.

"1" because it's a personal pool, so each session host will only take 1 session. "Random" because the assignment type is set to automatic, so the very first time they'll connect it will be to a random one. After that the next sessions will already be assigned to a permanent session host.

The vague wording of these questions is so frustrating... Are you supposed to key off of the "personal" pool type and know that it's a permanently assigned VM, or are you supposed to key off "first time" and know that it's a random VM? An argument could be made for either choice.

box1: hostPoolType:"personal" & PersonalDesktopAssignmentType:"Automatic" then so the answer is (1 Session). https://learn.microsoft.com/es-es/azure/virtual-desktop/configure-host-pool-personal-desktop-assignment-type Box2: LoadBalancerType:"Persistent" then so the answer is (a permanently assigned virtual machine) https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/configure-host-pool-load-balancing. Note: This does not apply to a persistent desktop host pool because users always have a 1:1 mapping to a session host within the host pool. Clearer than water :)

A Personal type host pool will assign a single session host to a user while a pooled host pool allows multiple sessions on a single session host.

The Session limit is set to 99999. The answer to the first part should be 99999 not 1.

Why 1 session per session host? MaxSessionLimit = 99999

That is correct - should be a random VM since it is the first time - after it the user will have a dedicated VM. the ARM is showing the config as "automatic" instead "direct" as assignment type

Random VM assigned is the correct answer If you look to the JSON file you see "automatic". taken from the MS documentation this means "... When an assigned user launches the desktop in their feed, their user session will be load-balanced to an available session host if they haven't already connected to the host pool." Spot word is first time therefore given answer is correct

From: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/configure-host-pool-load-balancing This does not apply to a persistent desktop host pool because users always have a 1:1 mapping to a session host within the host pool.

the previous comments was removed but the answer was not updated , it should have been permanent VM

it is not correct, answer shows a random VM, should be permanent VM.

Given answer is correct: 1, permanantly assigned VM
