Question 160
The AVD reviewer evaluates: A release team needs code review of session-host VM settings before provisioning. Select TWO complementary choices: the recommended response AND the evidence that confirms it worked.
Explanation
Correct Answers
The AVD operational observation is: A release team needs code review of session-host VM settings before provisioning. The most targeted response is: Use supported PowerShell, Azure CLI, ARM or Bicep automation with parameterized and reviewed deployments for repeatable host pools and hosts. This addresses the specific failure mechanism: Ad hoc portal clicks across environments can create inconsistent AVD configuration and make approved rollback difficult. Verify the outcome by checking: A new test deployment produces the expected host pool properties and session hosts from versioned parameters. The chosen response directly resolves the stated requirement, rather than changing another Azure Virtual Desktop configuration area.
The test concerns: A release team needs code review of session-host VM settings before provisioning. Decisive evidence is: A new test deployment produces the expected host pool properties and session hosts from versioned parameters. This confirms the intended correction (Use supported PowerShell, Azure CLI, ARM or Bicep automation with parameterized and reviewed deployments for repeatable host pools and hosts.) and tests the failure risk: Ad hoc portal clicks across environments can create inconsistent AVD configuration and make approved rollback difficult. Other healthy Azure resources or unrelated service telemetry would not, by themselves, establish success for this case.
Incorrect Answers
This option relates to Windows client and Server session-host licensing configuration under AZ-140 objective group 1.4. It addresses a different failure risk: A working VM image and host pool can still be noncompliant with user access and Windows OS entitlement rules. But the observed requirement is: A release team needs code review of session-host VM settings before provisioning. For the targeted topic (PowerShell, ARM and Bicep AVD deployment automation), the directly relevant paired response and evidence is: A new test deployment produces the expected host pool properties and session hosts from versioned parameters. That other measure may be useful in a separate environment, but does not by itself establish the specific requested outcome. An independent qualified Azure Virtual Desktop expert must adjudicate any plausible overlapping alternatives before release.
This option relates to Host agent health and troubleshooting registration under AZ-140 objective group 1.4. It addresses a different failure risk: A running virtual machine is not necessarily a healthy AVD session host when the agent, registration or domain trust fails. But the observed requirement is: A release team needs code review of session-host VM settings before provisioning. For the targeted topic (PowerShell, ARM and Bicep AVD deployment automation), the directly relevant paired response and evidence is: A new test deployment produces the expected host pool properties and session hosts from versioned parameters. That other measure may be useful in a separate environment, but does not by itself establish the specific requested outcome. An independent qualified Azure Virtual Desktop expert must adjudicate any plausible overlapping alternatives before release.
This option relates to Session host registration token and agent lifecycle under AZ-140 objective group 1.4. It addresses a different failure risk: An expired token or broken registration agent can leave a powered-on VM unavailable for AVD connections. But the observed requirement is: A release team needs code review of session-host VM settings before provisioning. For the targeted topic (PowerShell, ARM and Bicep AVD deployment automation), the directly relevant paired response and evidence is: A new test deployment produces the expected host pool properties and session hosts from versioned parameters. That other measure may be useful in a separate environment, but does not by itself establish the specific requested outcome. An independent qualified Azure Virtual Desktop expert must adjudicate any plausible overlapping alternatives before release.
