What Maestro component is automatically designated the SMO Master?

  1. The SGM with the lowest member ID (the first one added to the security group.)
  2. The MDS that pushes policy to the SMO is considered the SMO Master.
  3. The first MHO configured is considered the SMO Master.
  4. The SGM with the highest member ID (the last one added to the security group.)

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The SMO Master is the SGM that is responsible for synchronizing the configuration and policy with the other SGMs in the security group. The SMO Master is automatically designated as the SGM with the lowest member ID, which is usually the first one added to the security group. The SMO Master can be changed manually if needed.

Explanation:

The MHO (Maestro Hyperscale Orchestrator) does not require a license by itself, but each SGM (Security Group Module) that is attached to the MHO needs a license. The license type depends on the features and blades that are enabled on the SGM. For example, if the SGM is running VSX, it needs a VSX license.

question 35 is incorrect, the correct answer is c, it even states so: explanation: when a vm is infected with ransomware, you should not restore the vm to the infected vm. this is because the ransomware will still be present on the vm, and it will encrypt the files again. you should also not restore the vm to any vm within the companys subscription. this is because the ransomware could spread to other vms in the subscription. the best way to restore a vm that is infected with ransomware is to restore it to a new azure vm. this will ensure that the ransomware is not present on the new vm.
