Q3. - (Topic 3) 

A user has configured ELB with Auto Scaling. The user suspended the Auto Scaling AlarmNotification (which notifies Auto Scaling for CloudWatch alarms. process for a while. What will Auto Scaling do during this period? 

A. AWS will not receive the alarms from CloudWatch 

B. AWS will receive the alarms but will not execute the Auto Scaling policy 

C. Auto Scaling will execute the policy but it will not launch the instances until the process is resumed 

D. It is not possible to suspend the AlarmNotification process 

Answer:

Explanation: 

Auto Scaling performs various processes, such as Launch, Terminate Alarm Notification etc. The user can also suspend individual process. The AlarmNotification process type accepts notifications from the Amazon CloudWatch alarms that are associated with the Auto Scaling group. If the user suspends this process type, Auto Scaling will not automatically execute the scaling policies that would be triggered by the alarms. 

Q4. - (Topic 3) 

A user has configured ELB with SSL using a security policy for secure negotiation between the client and load balancer. Which of the below mentioned security policies is supported by ELB? 

A. Dynamic Security Policy 

B. All the other options 

C. Predefined Security Policy 

D. Default Security Policy 

Answer:

Explanation: 

Elastic Load Balancing uses a Secure Socket Layer (SSL. negotiation configuration which is known as a Security Policy. It is used to negotiate the SSL connections between a client and the load balancer. ELB supports two policies: Predefined Security Policy, which comes with predefined cipher and SSL protocols; Custom Security Policy, which allows the user to configure a policy. 

Q5. - (Topic 2) 

An organization has created 5 IAM users. The organization wants to give them the same login ID but different passwords. How can the organization achieve this? 

A. The organization should create a separate login ID but give the IAM users the same alias so that each one can login with their alias 

B. The organization should create each user in a separate region so that they have their own URL to login 

C. It is not possible to have the same login ID for multiple IAM users of the same account 

D. The organization should create various groups and add each user with the same login ID to different groups. The user can login with their own group ID 

Answer:

Explanation: 

AWS Identity and Access Management is a web service which allows organizations to manage users and user permissions for various AWS services. Whenever the organization is creating an IAM user, there should be a unique ID for each user. It is not possible to have the same login ID for multiple users. The names of users,groups, roles, instance profiles must be alphanumeric, including the following common characters: plus (+., equal (=., comma (,., period (.., at (@., and dash (-.. 

Q6. - (Topic 2) 

A user has configured an Auto Scaling group with ELB. The user has enabled detailed CloudWatch monitoring on Auto Scaling. Which of the below mentioned statements will help the user understand the functionality better? 

A. It is not possible to setup detailed monitoring for Auto Scaling 

B. In this case, Auto Scaling will send data every minute and will charge the user extra 

C. Detailed monitoring will send data every minute without additional charges 

D. Auto Scaling sends data every minute only and does not charge the user 

Answer:

Explanation: 

CloudWatch is used to monitor AWS as well as the custom services. It provides either basic or detailed monitoring for the supported AWS products. In basic monitoring, a service sends data points to CloudWatch every five minutes, while in detailed monitoring a service sends data points to CloudWatch every minute. Auto Scaling includes 7 metrics and 1 dimension, and sends data to CloudWatch every 5 minutes by default. The user can enable detailed monitoring for Auto Scaling, which sends data to CloudWatch every minute. However, this will have some extra-costs. 

Q7. - (Topic 3) 

A user is using a small MySQL RDS DB. The user is experiencing high latency due to the Multi AZ feature.Which of the below mentioned options may not help the user in this situation? 

A. Schedule the automated back up in non-working hours 

B. Use a large or higher size instance 

C. Use PIOPS 

D. Take a snapshot from standby Replica 

Answer:

Explanation: 

An RDS DB instance which has enabled Multi AZ deployments may experience increased write and commit latency compared to a Single AZ deployment, due to synchronous data replication. The user may also face changes in latency if deployment fails over to the standby replica. For production workloads, AWS recommends the user to use provisioned IOPS and DB instance classes (m1.large and larger. as they are optimized for provisioned IOPS to give a fast, and consistent performance. With Multi AZ feature, the user can not have option to take snapshot from replica. 

Q8. - (Topic 3) 

A user has created a VPC with CIDR 20.0.0.0/24. The user has used all the IPs of CIDR and wants to increase the size of the VPC. The user has two subnets: public (20.0.0.0/28. and private (20.0.1.0/28.. How can the user change the size of the VPC? 

A. The user can delete all the instances of the subnet. Change the size of the subnets to 20.0.0.0/32 and 20.0.1.0/32, respectively. Then the user can increase the size of the VPC using CLI 

B. It is not possible to change the size of the VPC once it has been created 

C. The user can add a subnet with a higher range so that it will automatically increase the size of the VPC 

D. The user can delete the subnets first and then modify the size of the VPC 

Answer:

Explanation: 

Once the user has created a VPC, he cannot change the CIDR of that VPC. The user has to terminate all the instances, delete the subnets and then delete the VPC. Create a new VPC with a higher size and launch instances with the newly created VPC and subnets. 

Q9. - (Topic 2) 

A user is planning to use AWS Cloud formation for his automatic deployment requirements. Which of the below mentioned components are required as a part of the template? 

A. Parameters 

B. Outputs 

C. Template version 

D. Resources 

Answer:

Explanation: 

AWS Cloud formation is an application management tool which provides application modelling, deployment, configuration, management and related activities. The template is a JSON-format, text-based file that describes all the AWS resources required to deploy and run an application. It can have option fields, such as Template Parameters, Output, Data tables, and Template file format version. The only mandatory value is Resource. The user can define the AWS services which will be used/ created by this template inside the Resource section 

Q10. - (Topic 3) 

A user is planning to set up the Multi AZ feature of RDS. Which of the below mentioned conditions won't take advantage of the Multi AZ feature? 

A. Availability zone outage 

B. A manual failover of the DB instance using Reboot with failover option 

C. Region outage 

D. When the user changes the DB instance’s server type 

Answer:

Explanation: 

Amazon RDS when enabled with Multi AZ will handle failovers automatically. Thus, the user can resume database operations as quickly as possible without administrative intervention. The primary DB instance switches over automatically to the standby replica if any of the following conditions occur: An Availability Zone outage The primary DB instance fails The DB instance's server type is changed The DB instance is undergoing software patching A manual failover of the DB instance was initiated using Reboot with failover
