You have an Azure Virtual Desktop host pool named Pool1 in the East US region.

You have a storage account named storage1 that contains FSLogix profile containers. In the East US region, you have a shared image gallery named SIG1 that contains a virtual machine image named Image1. Image1 is used to create new session hosts in Pool1.

You plan to deploy a new Azure Virtual Desktop host pool named Pool2 to the South India region.

You need to implement a session host deployment solution for Pool2 that meets the following requirements:

Image1 must replicate in the South India region.

The session hosts in Pool2 must be based on Image1.

Changes to Image1 must be available in the South India and East US regions.

What should you include in the solution?

  1. Create a new shared image gallery named SIG2 in the South India region. Upload a copy of Image1 to SIG2.
  2. Create a new Azure Storage account named storage2 in the South India region. Copy Image1 to a shared folder in storage2.
  3. From SIG1, update the replication for the latest image version of Image1.
  4. Configure geo-redundant storage (GRS) replication for storage1. Copy the VHD file of Image1 to the FSLogix profile container.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Plan for image update and management
An Azure Compute Gallery simplifies custom image sharing across your organization. Custom images are like marketplace images, but you create them yourself. Custom images can be used to bootstrap deployment tasks like preloading applications, application configurations, and other OS configurations.

Replication
Azure Compute Gallery also allows you to replicate your images to other Azure regions automatically. Each shared Image version can be replicated to different regions depending on what makes sense for your organization. One example is to always replicate the latest image in multi-regions while all older versions are only available in one region to save on storage costs for Azure Compute Gallery versions.
The regions an Azure Compute Gallery version is replicated to can be updated after creation time. The time it takes to replicate to different regions depends on the amount of data being copied and the number of regions the version is replicated to.
While the replication is happening, you can view the status of replication per region.
Once the image replication is complete in a region, you can then deploy a VM or scale-set using that image version in the region.

Your company has a single office and has 40 employees.

You are planning an Azure Virtual Desktop deployment. The estimated user workloads are shown in the following table.



Half the users of each workload type work from home. All the users who work from home do NOT establish a VPN connection to the office.

Approximately how much bandwidth is needed between the office and Azure to support the planned workloads?

  1. 9.5 Mbps
  2. 55 Mbps
  3. 110 Mbps
  4. 220 Mbps

Answer(s): B



Your network contains an on-premises Active Directory domain that syncs to a Microsoft Entra tenant. The domain contains the domain controllers shown in the following table.



The DNS servers are configured to forward requests to an external DNS service.

You create a new virtual network named VNET2 that is peered to VNET1 and has gateway transit enabled.

You plan to implement an Azure Virtual Desktop host pool in VNET2. The session hosts will be joined to the

Active Directory domain.

You need to configure DNS to meet the following requirements:

Ensure that Azure Virtual Desktop users can resolve on-premises servers and Azure resources.

Ensure that azure Virtual Desktop remains operational if a DNS server fails.

Minimize administrative effort.

What should you configure?

  1. the DNS settings of VNET2 to use Server2 and Server1
  2. the DNS settings of VNET2 to use the Azure DNS service
  3. the DNS settings of the virtual machines to use Server2 and Server1
  4. the DNS settings of the virtual machines to use the Azure DNS service

Answer(s): A
