DRAG DROP -
You onboard 10 Azure virtual machines to Azure Automation State Configuration.
You need to use Azure Automation State Configuration to manage the ongoing consistency of the virtual machine configurations.
Which three actions should you perform in sequence? To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.
NOTE: More than one order of answer choices is correct. You will receive credit for any of the correct orders you select.

Suggested Answer:
Step 1: Upload a configuration to Azure Automation State Configuration.
Import the configuration into the Automation account.
Step 2: Compile a configuration into a node configuration.
A DSC configuration defining that state must be compiled into one or more node configurations (MOF document), and placed on the Automation DSC Pull Server.
Step 3: Assign the node configuration
Then: Check the compliance status of the node
Each time Azure Automation State Configuration performs a consistency check on a managed node, the node sends a status report back to the pull server. You can view these reports on the page for that node.
On the blade for an individual report, you can see the following status information for the corresponding consistency check:
The report status ג€" whether the node is "Compliant", the configuration "Failed", or the node is "Not Compliant"

Based on the 2nd link you provided, your answer is wrong Configure machines to a desired state Article 02/05/2022 4 minutes to read 11 contributors Azure Automation State Configuration allows you to specify configurations for your servers and ensure that those servers are in the specified state over time. Onboard a VM to be managed by Azure Automation DSC Upload a configuration to Azure Automation Compile a configuration into a node configuration Assign a node configuration to a managed node Check the compliance status of a managed node For this tutorial, we use a simple DSC configuration that ensures that IIS is installed on the VM.

You get it wrong. The answer provider by Exam Topics is rather right. The question present a a case that we have to deal with, note that the question is not about listing the appropriate step per theory, but per the situation at hand here. Per your answer you have not yet registered the nodes, you have not yet assigned node configuration to the nodes. Which compliance are you checking then? So per the case in the question after Step 1 and 2, you have to register the VMs ( according to Azure steps). This is the case is not a single VM, so to easily locate and register the VMs you need to assign tags to them in order to carry on the next step easily.

To manage the ongoing consistency of virtual machine configurations using Azure Automation State Configuration, you should follow these steps in sequence: 1. **Upload a configuration to Azure Automation State Configuration**: Before you can apply a desired state to a machine, you need a configuration. This configuration defines the desired state. 2. **Compile a configuration into a node configuration**: After uploading the configuration, you need to compile it. This process turns the human-readable configuration into a format that can be read and applied by the target machines (nodes). 3. **Check the compliance status of the node**: After the node configuration is applied to machines, you can regularly check the compliance status to ensure that the machines adhere to the defined desired state. If they drift from the desired state, Azure Automation State Configuration can correct them, depending on how you've set it up.

From Udemy: Explanation Create and Import the DSC configuration into the Automation account. Before you can apply a desired state to a node, a DSC configuration defining that state must be compiled into one or more node configurations (MOF document) and placed on the Automation DSC Pull Server. Enable an Azure Resource Manager VM for management with State Configuration and assign the node configuration. Each time State Configuration performs a consistency check on a managed node, the node sends a status report back to the pull server. You can view these reports on the page for that node. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/automation/automation-dsc-getting-started

Given Answer is incorrect Azure Automation State Configuration: is a configuration management solution built on top of PowerShell Desired State Configuration (DSC). State configuration works with Azure virtual machines, on-premises machines, and machines in a cloud other than Azure. Using state configuration, you can import PowerShell DSC resources and assign them to many virtual machines from a central location. Once each endpoint has evaluated and / or applied the desired state, state compliance is reported to Azure and can be seen on a built-in dashboard More Detailed Steps: Step 1: Create and upload a configuration to Azure Automation Step 2: Compile a configuration into a node configuration Step 3: Register a VM to be managed by State Configuration Step 4: Specify configuration mode settings Step 5: Assign a node configuration to a managed node Step 6: Check the compliance status of a managed node
