Correct answer is A/C. You can not have Full .NET framework on Linux (only .NET core). No reason to have any further discussions. I bet my life on my answer.

It is not about running .net full framework on Linux, but just building the image.

You're not right. The correct answers are A and B. From March 2020, Win1803 is not supported anymore. Here is the link: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/agents/hosted?view=azure-devops&tabs=yaml#software

I am not sure how you are saying B. If anybody has ever worked with .Net full framework they will know its does not run or build in a linux machine. It needs windows and VS/MsBuild, so must be a windows server.

Correct, its A and B. Why? Because C D E images are decommised and no longer available. For those saying that Ubuntu cant Run .NET and only can run .NET, you are right, but this is abour Building the image, NOT running.

Selected Answer: AC
Copilot: For building container images that host full Microsoft .NET Framework apps, ubuntu-16.04 is not a suitable choice. The .NET Framework is primarily supported on Windows-based environments. Therefore, using a Windows-based virtual machine image like vs2017-win2016 or win1803 is recommended12. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask!

The possible virtual machine images you can use for the Microsoft-hosted agent pool in this scenario are: A. vs2017-win2016: This image is based on Windows Server 2016 and includes Visual Studio 2017. It supports the full .NET Framework and is suitable for building Windows-based container images. C. win1803: This image is based on Windows Server, version 1803, which also supports Windows containers and the full .NET Framework. The other options, B (ubuntu-16.04), D (macOS-10.13), and E (vs2015-win2012r2), are either based on Linux or macOS, or they do not support the Windows container feature (Windows Server 2012 R2 does not support Windows containers), and therefore they are not suitable for building container images for full .NET Framework apps.

This question was posted on 31.10.2019. As of today the actual images are different - see the link. Even vs2017-win2016 is now deprecated. Most probably as of today the answer options are changed too. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/agents/hosted?view=azure-devops&tabs=yaml

The two correct virtual machine images for the Microsoft-hosted agent pool to build container images that will host full Microsoft .NET Framework apps in a YAML pipeline are: A. vs2017-win2016 E. vs2015-win2012r2 Explanation: These two images are Windows-based and support .NET Framework development. Specifically, "vs2017-win2016" is a VM image running Windows Server 2016 with Visual Studio 2017 installed, and "vs2015-win2012r2" is a VM image running Windows Server 2012 R2 with Visual Studio 2015 installed. Both Visual Studio versions support .NET Framework development. The other options: B. ubuntu-16.04 - This is a Linux-based VM and does not natively support .NET Framework which is a Windows-only technology. C. win1803 - This VM image is deprecated and is no longer available in Azure DevOps. D. macOS-10.13 - This is a Mac-based VM and does not natively support .NET Framework which is a Windows-only technology.
