Microsoft DevOps Engineer Expert AZ-400 Practice Question

Your company manages hundreds of Azure and Arc-enabled Windows Server virtual machines. You must ensure that a specified registry key exists with a required value and that any drift from this desired state is detected and automatically remediated. You decide to use Azure Automanage Machine Configuration instead of Azure Automation State Configuration. Which approach should you implement to meet the requirements with the least operational overhead?

  • Compile a DSC configuration into a MOF file, upload it to an Azure Automation State Configuration account, and assign the node configuration to each virtual machine.

  • Build a Guest Configuration package, publish it to an Azure Automation account, and deploy it to virtual machines by using the Guest Configuration extension.

  • Author a Bicep file that adds the Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines/extensions resource type for Puppet and points it to the desired configuration script.

  • Create a signed Machine Configuration package, store it in an Azure Storage account, reference the package in a custom Azure Policy definition with DeployIfNotExists remediation, and assign the policy to the required scopes.
