Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate AZ-104 Practice Question
An Azure compute instance is experiencing high CPU utilization due to increased demand. You need to allocate more processing resources to it. Which action should you perform?
Add processors to the instance on-the-fly
Increase the instance size without shutting it down
Remove the instance and deploy a new one with more resources
To increase the compute resources of an Azure virtual machine, you should stop (deallocate) it and then change its size. Stopping the instance allows Azure to allocate the necessary resources upon restart. Modifying the size while it's running is not supported in most cases. Adding processors without downtime is not possible. Deleting and recreating the instance could result in data loss and unnecessary downtime.
