Exam AZ-104 topic 3 question 32 discussion

Correct Answer: Box 1: contoso104 only Premium file shares are hosted in a special purpose storage account kind, called a FileStorage account. Box 2: contoso101 and contos103 only Object storage data tiering between hot, cool, and archive is supported in Blob Storage and General Purpose v2 (GPv2) accounts. General Purpose v1 (GPv1) accounts don't support tiering. The archive tier supports only LRS, GRS, and RA-GRS. Reference: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/common/storage-account-overview https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/files/storage-how-to-create-premium-fileshare?tabs=azure-portal https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/storage-blob-storage-tiers

Box1 - 104 only. Box2 - 101 and 103 only ( Storage V2 and BLOB storage) https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/storage-blob-storage-tiers -Object storage data tiering between hot, cool, and archive is supported in Blob Storage and General Purpose v2 (GPv2) accounts. General Purpose v1 (GPv1) accounts don't support tiering.

Box 1: Contoso104 only Box 2: contoso101 and contos103 only. General Purpose v1 (GPv1) accounts do not support tiering.

Box1: contoso104 only Box3: contoso101 only Why Box3 shouldn't include contoso103/BlobStorage - this is because BlobStorage implies that it's a Premium storage account. Premium storage account is in its own league and does not yet support hot, cool, archive data tiering, see - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/storage-feature-support-in-storage-accounts

WRONG You can create a premium file share in: contoso104 only. (Premium File share is supported only by FileStorage account) You can use the Archive access tier in: contoso101 and contos103 only. (Archive access tier is supported in Blob Storage and General Purpose V2)

Box 1: contoso104 only Box 2: contoso101 and contos103 only

Blob storage is a legacy so 101 only for 2nd question

Box 1: contoso104 only Box 2: contoso101 and contos103 only

This question was in the exam 08June 2023

Box 2: You can use the Archive access tier in: contoso101 or contoso103 only Contoso101 or Contoso103 only is correct as tiring in a Storage account is supported by only two types of storage accounts - BlobStorage and StorageV2. You cannot configure any other type of storage accounts like Storage,FileStorage etc. Note: The archive tier is not supported as the default access tier for a storage account. Object storage data tiering between hot, cool, and archive is supported in Blob Storage and General Purpose v2 (GPv2) accounts. General Purpose v1 (GPv1) accounts don't support tiering. The archive tier supports only LRS, GRS, and RA-GRS. The archive tier isn't supported for ZRS, GZRS, or RA-GZRS accounts.

Box 1 is correct Box 2 is just contoso101 and 103; here is why: The general-purpose v1 storage account, which is the older version of the standard storage account, only supports two tiers: hot and cool. It doesn't support the archive tier. However, if you have an existing general-purpose v1 storage account, you can use the Azure portal, Azure PowerShell, or Azure CLI to migrate it to the v2 kind, which then allows you to use the archive tier. Once you migrate a v1 storage account to v2, you can't revert it back to v1.
