Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate AZ-104 Practice Question
An Azure virtual machine is running and needs to be resized to a larger size not available on the current hardware cluster. What is the most appropriate action to take to perform this resize?
Increase the compute resources from within the operating system.
Resize the instance while it is running.
Clone the instance to a new one with the desired size.
To resize a running Azure virtual machine to a size that is not available on the current hardware cluster, you must first stop (deallocate) the instance. Stopping the instance allows Azure to move it to a different hardware cluster that supports the desired size. Attempting to resize while the instance is running will fail if the new size is not supported on the current hardware. Increasing resources from within the operating system is not possible because the sizing is managed by Azure. Cloning the instance is unnecessary and does not directly change its size.
