Exam AZ-104 topic 1 question 18 discussion

D is correct. 2 or 3 is max for a region so answer should be Max.

The platformFaultDomainCount property specifies the number of fault domains to be used by the availability set. A fault domain is a group of underlying hardware resources in a data center that share a common power source and network switch, but are physically separated from each other. By distributing virtual machines across fault domains, you can ensure that no single point of failure can take down all of the virtual machines at once. In Azure, the maximum value for platformFaultDomainCount is 3. This means that an availability set can have up to 3 fault domains. The minimum value for platformFaultDomainCount is 1. To make sure that the ARM template allows for as many VMs as possible to remain accessible in the event of fabric failure or maintenance, you should set the platformFaultDomainCount property to its maximum value of 3. So the correct answer is: D. Max Value

D is correct

Each virtual machine in your availability set is assigned an update domain and a fault domain by the underlying Azure platform. Each availability set can be configured with up to 3 fault domains and 20 update domains. However 20 is not in options, the correct answer is D

CORRECT ANSWER D (Max Value) You can set the property properties.platformFaultDomainCount to 1, 2, or 3 (default of 1 if not specified). https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machine-scale-sets/virtual-machine-scale-sets-manage-fault-domains

D is correct

i think D

D es correcto

D is correct , Max fault domain is 3 so that option is not available so i will go with max

Each availability set can be configured with up to 3 fault domains and 20 update domains. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/availability-set-overview You can set the property properties.platformFaultDomainCount to 1, 2, or 3 (default of 3 if not specified) https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machine-scale-sets/virtual-machine-scale-sets-manage-fault-domains D is the most sensible answer.

Max value,since 3 is the max platformFaultDomainCount for availability sets. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/availability-set-overview

the answer is D

According to question that "configure allows for as many VMs as possible to remain accessible" You need to set Max value in platformFaultDomainCount. You can use The command in this Microsoft article (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/availability-set-overview) "Availability sets overview" to retrieves a list of fault domains per region. az vm list-skus --resource-type availabilitySets --query '[?name==`Aligned`].{Location:locationInfo[0].location, MaximumFaultDomainCount:capabilities[0].value}' -o Table

"Each availability set can be configured with up to 3 fault domains and 20 update domains."

Key word “as many VMs as possible” , it is max value (3) . See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machine-scale-sets/virtual-machine-scale-sets-manage-fault-domains#rest-api

Option D is correct.
