"consul",

"terraform",

"boundary",

"nomad"

]

}

A : var.products[2]

B : var.default.products["terraform"]

Answer: A

Question 3

When using Terraform's remote state, what is the purpose of the backend configuration in the main.tf file?

A : configure the remote state backend including provider, authentication, and storage options.

B : To configure the local state backend including file location and state locking.

C : configure the output destination for debugging and logging purposes.

D : configure the refresh interval and timeout settings for remote state synchronization.

Answer: A

Question 4

In Terraform, what is the purpose of state locking and how does it work?

A : ate locking is a feature to prevent multiple users from concurrently updating the same state file by using a lock file stored in a shared location.

B : ate locking is a feature that allows Terraform to sync only the resources with state that it has access to. It works by creating a separate state file for each resource.

C : ate locking is not necessary in Terraform since it automatically handles state changes in real-time without any race conditions or consistency issues.

D : ate locking is a feature that allows Terraform to preserve variable values between runs by storing them in a separate state file.

Answer: A

Question 5

You have declared a variable named db_connection_string inside of the app module. However, when you run a terraform apply, you get the following error message:

Error: Reference to undeclared input variable

on main.tf line 35:

4: db_path = var.db_connection_string

An input variable with the name "db_connection_string" has not been declared. This variable can be declared with a variable "db_connection_string" {} block.

Why would you receive such an error?

A : since the variable was declared within the module, it cannot be referenced outside of the module

B : the variable should be referenced as var.module.app.db_connection_string

C : an output block was not created in the module, and therefore the variable cannot be referenced

D : input variables are not referenced using the var prefix

Answer: A
