Answer(s): B

Explanation:

You can use Azure Automation State Configuration to manage Azure VMs (both Classic and Resource Manager), on-premises VMs, Linux machines, AWS VMs, and on-premises physical machines.
Note: Azure Automation State Configuration provides a DSC pull server similar to the Windows Feature DSC-Service so that target nodes automatically receive configurations, conform to the desired state, and report back on their compliance. The built-in pull server in Azure Automation eliminates the need to set up and maintain your own pull server. Azure Automation can target virtual or physical Windows or Linux machines, in the cloud or on-premises.

Note: The question is included in a number of questions that depicts the identical set-up. However, every question has a distinctive result. Establish if the solution satisfies the requirements.
You are in the process of creating an Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster. The Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster must be able to connect to an Azure
Container Registry.
You want to make sure that Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster authenticates to the Azure Container Registry by making use of the auto-generated service principal.
Solution: You create an Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) role assignment.
Does the solution meet the goal?

  1. Yes
  2. No

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

When you create an AKS cluster, Azure also creates a service principal to support cluster operability with other Azure resources. You can use this auto-generated service principal for authentication with an ACR registry. To do so, you need to create an Azure AD role assignment that grants the cluster's service principal access to the container registry.
