  NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  

  

  ---

  Box 1: containerapp

  By default, when ingress is enabled, all traffic is routed to the latest deployed revision. When you enable multiple revision mode in your container app, you can split incoming traffic between active revisions.

  Configure traffic splitting

  Configure traffic splitting between revisions using the az containerapp ingress traffic set command. You can specify the revisions by name with the --revision-weight parameter or by revision label with the --label-weight parameter.

  The following command sets the traffic weight for each revision to 50%:

  az containerapp ingress traffic set \

  --name <APP_NAME> \

  --resource-group <RESOURCE_GROUP> \

  --revision-weight <REVISION_1>=50 <REVISION_2>=50

  Make sure to replace the placeholder values surrounded by <> with your own values.

  Box 2: ingress

  This command sets the traffic weight for revision <LABEL_1> to 80% and revision <LABEL_2> to 20%:

  az containerapp ingress traffic set \

  --name <APP_NAME> \

  --resource-group <RESOURCE_GROUP> \

  --label-weight <LABEL_1>=80 <LABEL_2>=20

• Question 465:

  You are creating a hazard notification system that has a single signaling server which triggers audio and visual alarms to start and stop.

  You implement Azure Service Bus to publish alarms. Each alarm controller uses Azure Service Bus to receive alarm signals as part of a transaction. Alarm events must be recorded for audit purposes. Each transaction record must include information about the alarm type that was activated.

  You need to implement a reply trail auditing solution.

  Which two actions should you perform? Each correct answer resents part of the solution.

  NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  A. Assign the value of the hazard message SessionID property to the ReplyToSessionId property.
  B. Assign the value of the hazard message MessageId property to the DevileryCount property.
  C. Assign the value of the hazard message SessionID property to the SequenceNumber property.
  D. Assign the value of the hazard message MessageId property to the CorrelationId property.
  E. Assign the value of the hazard message SequenceNumber property to the DeliveryCount property.
  F. Assign the value of the hazard message MessageId property to the SequenceNumber property.
  A. Assign the value of the hazard message SessionID property to the ReplyToSessionId property.
  D. Assign the value of the hazard message MessageId property to the CorrelationId property.

  ---

  Explanation

  D:

  CorrelationId: Enables an application to specify a context for the message for the purposes of correlation; for example, reflecting the MessageId of a message that is being replied to.

  A:

  ReplyToSessionId: This value augments the ReplyTo information and specifies which SessionId should be set for the reply when sent to the reply entity.

  Incorrect Answers:

  B, E: DeliveryCount

  Number of deliveries that have been attempted for this message. The count is incremented when a message lock expires, or the message is explicitly abandoned by the receiver. This property is read-only.

  C, E: SequenceNumber

  The sequence number is a unique 64-bit integer assigned to a message as it is accepted and stored by the broker and functions as its true identifier. For partitioned entities, the topmost 16 bits reflect the partition identifier. Sequence numbers monotonically increase and are gapless. They roll over to 0 when the 48-64 bit range is exhausted. This property is read-only.

• Question 466:

  HOTSPOT

  You are configuring a development environment for your team. You deploy the latest Visual Studio image from the Azure Marketplace to your Azure subscription.

  The development environment requires several software development kits (SDKs) and third-party components to support application development across the organization. You install and customize the deployed virtual machine (VM) for your development team. The customized VM must be saved to allow provisioning of a new team member development environment.

  You need to save the customized VM for future provisioning.

  Which tools or services should you use? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.

  NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

• Question 467:

  You are preparing to deploy an ASP.NET Core website to an Azure Web App from a GitHub repository. The website includes static content generated by a script.

  You plan to use the Azure Web App continuous deployment feature.

  You need to run the static generation script before the website starts serving traffic.

  What are two possible ways to achieve this goal? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.

  NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  A. Create a file named .deployment in the root of the repository that calls a script which generates the static content and deploys the website.
  B. Add a PreBuild target in the websites csproj project file that runs the static content generation script.
  C. Create a file named run.cmd in the folder /run that calls a script which generates the static content and deploys the website.
  D. Add the path to the static content generation tool to WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE setting in the host.json file.
  A. Create a file named .deployment in the root of the repository that calls a script which generates the static content and deploys the website.
  D. Add the path to the static content generation tool to WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE setting in the host.json file.

  ---

  Explanation

  A: To customize your deployment, include a .deployment file in the repository root.

  You just need to add a file to the root of your repository with the name .deployment and the content:

  [config] command = YOUR COMMAND TO RUN FOR DEPLOYMENT this command can be just running a script (batch file) that has all that is required for your deployment, like copying files from the repository to the web root directory for example.

  D: In Azure, you can run your functions directly from a deployment package file in your function app. The other option is to deploy your files in the d:\home\site\wwwroot directory of your function app (see A above).

  To enable your function app to run from a package, you just add a WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE setting to your function app settings.

  Note: The host.json metadata file contains global configuration options that affect all functions for a function app.
