Question 1

A company has deployed a web application in a VPC that has subnets in three Availability Zones. The company launches three Amazon EC2 instances from an
EC2 Auto Scaling group behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB).
A SysOps administrator notices that two of the EC2 instances are in the same Availability Zone, rather than being distributed evenly across all three Availability
Zones. There are no errors in the Auto Scaling group's activity history.
What is the MOST likely reason for the unexpected placement of EC2 instances?

A : One Availability Zone did not have sufficient capacity for the requested EC2 instance type.

B : The ALB was configured for only two Availability Zones.

C : The Auto Scaling group was configured for only two Availability Zones.

D : Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling randomly placed the instances in Availability Zones.

Answer: C

Question 2

A company has a simple web application that runs on a set of Amazon EC2 instances behind an Elastic Load Balancer in the eu-west-2 Region. Amazon Route 53 holds a DNS record for the application with a simple routing policy. Users from all over the world access the application through their web browsers.

The company needs to create additional copies of the application in the us-east-1 Region and in the ap-south-1 Region. The company must direct users to the Region that provides the fastest response times when the users load the application.

What should a SysOps administrator do to meet these requirements?

A : In each new Region, create a new Elastic Load Balancer and a new set of EC2 Instances to run a copy of the application. Transition to a geolocation routing policy.

B : In each new Region, create a copy of the application on new EC2 instances. Add these new EC2 instances to the Elastic Load Balancer in eu-west-2. Transition to a latency routing policy.

C : In each new Region, create a copy of the application on new EC2 instances. Add these new EC2 instances to the Elastic Load Balancer in eu-west-2. Transition to a multivalue routing policy.

D : In each new Region, create a new Elastic Load Balancer and a new set of EC2 instances to run a copy of the application. Transition to a latency routing policy.

Answer: D

Question 3

The SysOps administrator finds that users can no longer download a file from an S3 presigned URL after a few days. Options (Select TWO):

A : The presigned URL's expiration date and time have passed.

B : The SysOps administrator's access key is no longer valid.

C : The S3 bucket’s Block Public Access settings are enabled.

D : The S3 object's ACL does not include READ access for the All Users group.

E : The S3 object's ACL does not include READ_ACP access for the All Users group.

Answer: A,B

Question 4

A company creates custom AMI images by launching new Amazon EC2 instances from an AWS CloudFormation template. It installs and configures necessary software through AWS OpsWorks, and takes images of each EC2 instance. The process of installing and configuring software can take between 2 to 3 hours, but at times, the process stalls due to installation errors.

The SysOps administrator must modify the CloudFormation template so if the process stalls, the entire stack will fail and roll back.

Based on these requirements, what should be added to the template?

A : Conditions with a timeout set to 4 hours.

B : CreationPolicy with a timeout set to 4 hours.

C : DependsOn with a timeout set to 4 hours.

D : Metadata with a timeout set to 4 hours.

Answer: B

Question 5

A company runs hundreds of Amazon EC2 instances in a single AWS Region. Each EC2 instance has two attached 1 GiB General Purpose SSD (gp2) Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volumes. A critical workload is using all the available IOPS capacity on the EBS volumes.

According to company policy, the company cannot change instance types or EBS volume types without completing lengthy acceptance tests to validate that the company’s applications will function properly. A SysOps administrator needs to increase the I/O performance of the EBS volumes as quickly as possible.

Which action should the SysOps administrator take to meet these requirements?

A : Increase the size of the 1 GiB EBS volumes.

B : Add two additional elastic network interfaces on each EC2 instance.

C : Turn on Transfer Acceleration on the EBS volumes in the Region.

D : Add all the EC2 instances to a cluster placement group.

Answer: A
