Exam AZ-800 topic 3 question 4 discussion

the answer is A, folder 2 is on D: which by default is the scratch disk that is wiped on a re-boot, a re-size of the VM requires a reboot of the VM, therefore the contents of D will be wiped

the answer is A

If volume D is not data disk the new attached volume will not be E C os, D Data disk and E data disk

fter resizing VM1: Folder1 (on C:) will persist. Folder2 (on D:) will be lost because D: is likely a temporary disk. Volume E and App1 installed on it will persist because they are on a persistent data disk. Thus, the correct answer is indeed A. Folder1, volume E, and App1 only.

D is the correct answer

Tested in lab: After the resize (up or down) volume D: is re-initialized with default settings.

After resizing VM1, both Folder1 (created on volume C) and Folder2 (created on volume D) will still be present. Additionally, App1 (installed on volume E) and Volume E (created after adding the new data disk) will also remain. Therefore, the correct answer is: D. Folder1, Folder2, App1, and volume E

By default, most Azure virtual machines (VMs) are provisioned with a temporary disk, which is often labeled as the D: drive in Windows VMs. Also, with default settings for a new volume E, which typically includes using Azure managed disks, both volume E and the application installed on it (App1) are likely to stay intact after resizing the Azure virtual machine (VM).

Answer D is correct. As per https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/resize-vm?tabs=portal, • After you create a virtual machine (VM), you can scale the VM up or down by changing the VM size. • In some cases, you must deallocate(STOP) the VM first <NOT ALWAYS>. Deallocation may be necessary if the new size isn't available on the same hardware cluster that is currently hosting the VM. • If the virtual machine is currently running, changing its size will cause it to restart. • If your VM is still running and you don't see the size you want in the list, stopping the virtual machine may reveal more sizes. In summary,here, a reboot will take place. Temporary disk(usually D if not labeled as data disk) is wiped on a stop ; but it persists on a standard reboot. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/managed-disks-overview#temporary-disk Hence, all of folder1, folder2, E drive and app remain intact on REBOOT. Had there been a mention of state of app or user connection, that would NOT be maintained post reboot.

A is correct. D is for temp volumes in Azure defaults.

Resizing an Azure VM will not affect data on existing disks. Therefore, after resizing VM1, all of the following objects will be preserved: D. Folder1, Folder2, App1 and volume E Adding a new data disk and volume, as well as installing the App1 application on volume E, will not be affected by resizing the virtual machine. Only virtual machine settings, such as CPU and memory size, will be changed.

Correct D. Folder1, Folder2, App1, and volume E After resizing VM1, all the folders and data created within the virtual machine will still be present.

I understand the assumption that the D: drive is temporary but not every Azure VM SKU has a temp disk and the question doesn't mention one so I don't think it can be assumed.

Should be D since there isn't anything mention about temporary disk on the question
