Question 1

You have a managed instance group comprised of preemptible VM's. All of the VM's keepdeleting and recreating themselves every minute. What is a possible cause of thisbehavior?

A : Your zonal capacity is limited, causing all preemptible VM's to be shutdown torecover capacity. Try deploying your group to another zone.

B : You have hit your instance quota for the region.

C : Your managed instance group's VM's are toggled to only last 1 minute inpreemptible settings.

D : Your managed instance group's health check is repeatedly failing, either to amisconfigured health check or misconfigured firewall rules not allowing the healthcheck to access the instance

Answer: D

Question 2

You want to run a single caching HTTP reverse proxy on GCP for a latency-sensitive website. This specific reverse proxy consumes almost no CPU. You want to have a 30-GB in-memory cache, and need an additional 2 GB of memory for the rest of the processes. You want to minimize cost. How should you run this reverse proxy?

A : Create a Cloud Memorystore for Redis instance with 32-GB capacity.

B : Run it on Compute Engine, and choose a custom instance type with 6 vCPUs and 32 GB of memory.

C : Package it in a container image, and run it on Kubernetes Engine, using n1-standard-32 instances as nodes.

D : Run it on Compute Engine, choose the instance type n1-standard-1, and add an SSD persistent disk of 32 GB.

Answer: A

Question 3

An external member of your team needs list access to compute images and disks in one of your projects. You want to follow Google-recommended practices when you grant the required permissions to this user. What should you do?

A : Create a custom role, and add all the required compute.disks.list and compute, images.list permissions as includedPermissions. Grant the custom role to the user at the project level.

B : Create a custom role based on the Compute Image User role Add the compute.disks, list to theincludedPermissions field Grant the custom role to the user at the project level

C : Grant the Compute Storage Admin role at the project level.

D : Create a custom role based on the Compute Storage Admin role. Exclude unnecessary permissions from the custom role. Grant the custom role to the user at the project level.

Answer: B

Question 4

You have an application on a general-purpose Compute Engine instance that is experiencing excessive disk read throttling on its Zonal SSD Persistent Disk. The application primarily reads large files from disk. The disk size is currently 350 GB. You want to provide the maximum amount of throughput while minimizing costs. What should you do?

A : Increase the size of the disk to 1 TB.

B : Increase the allocated CPU to the instance.

C : Migrate to use a Local SSD on the instance.

D : Migrate to use a Regional SSD on the instance.

Answer: C

Question 5

Your company runs its Linux workloads on Compute Engine instances. Your company will be working with a new operations partner that does not use Google Accounts. You need to grant access to the instances to your operations partner so they can maintain the installed tooling. What should you do?

A : Enable Cloud IAP for the Compute Engine instances, and add the operations partner as a Cloud IAP Tunnel User.

B : Tag all the instances with the same network tag. Create a firewall rule in the VPC to grant TCP access on port 22 for traffic from the operations partner to instances with the network tag.

C : Set up Cloud VPN between your Google Cloud VPC and the internal network of the operations partner.

D : Ask the operations partner to generate SSH key pairs, and add the public keys to the VM instances.
