Exam AZ-900 topic 1 question 167 discussion

I can't believe there has been 101 replies to this comment section and not one clear answer. So let me provide it easily for you guys: The computer has PowerShell Core 6.0, but it doesn't have the Azure CLI installed. There is no mention of that in the question. You need Azure PowerShell module in addition to PowerShell to run Azure commands, such as New-AzVM. Therefore, the answer should be B, No.

These questions are poorly worded. You should still need to install the Az module inside powershell core for this to run.

If you are reading this and wondering about the discussion - don't read this one anymore, it is a bunch of nonsense. Go to the next question.

The answer is No because its not a straight Yes - refer CoPilot: Yes, you can use a computer that runs macOS and has PowerShell Core 6.0 installed to run a PowerShell script that creates Azure resources . While PowerShell Core 6.0 doesn't have full feature parity with Windows PowerShell, it does support the necessary modules for managing Azure resources2 . You'll need to install the Azure PowerShell module using the command: sh Copy pw sh Install-Module -Name Az -AllowClobber -Scope CurrentUser After that, you can connect to Azure using: sh Copy Connect-AzAccount This setup will allow you to manage your Azure resources directly from your macOS machine3

B. No, thats incorrect the is no core 6.0

Requires powershell module

Core isnt enough, need to install entire module

Answer: A. Yes Explanation: PowerShell Core 6.0 (now known as PowerShell 7) is a cross-platform version of PowerShell that can run on Windows, macOS, and Linux. It allows you to execute PowerShell scripts on non-Windows operating systems, including macOS. macOS: With PowerShell Core installed, a macOS computer can run PowerShell scripts just like a Windows machine. Since the solution involves running the PowerShell script from a macOS computer with PowerShell Core 6.0 installed, this configuration meets the goal of running a PowerShell script to create Azure resources.

WIth Powershell Core for Mac OS you need to import Azure module. Also check out question 443 and read the comments there. The answer here should be No. The correct answer with Yes was in a previous question

A. Yes PowerShell Core 6.0 is a cross-platform scripting language that runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux. It can be used to manage Azure resources. Therefore, a macOS computer with PowerShell Core 6.0 installed would meet the requirements to run a PowerShell script that creates Azure resources.

It's NO

B. No PowerShell Core 6.0 is not officially supported on macOS. While PowerShell Core is cross-platform and can run on macOS, the specific version 6.0 mentioned in the solution is outdated, and it's recommended to use a newer version for compatibility and support reasons. Additionally, while PowerShell Core is cross-platform, certain Azure PowerShell modules or cmdlets may have dependencies or limitations specific to Windows environments. Therefore, the recommended approach would be to run the PowerShell script from a computer running Windows with a supported version of PowerShell installed, such as Windows PowerShell or PowerShell 7.x (PowerShell Core). This ensures compatibility and support for Azure PowerShell modules and cmdlets.

Install a supported version of PowerShell version 7 or higher. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/azure/install-azps-macos?view=azps-11.3.0

PowerShell Core 6.0, it's cross-platform version of PowerShell that works on Windows, macOS, and Linux
