Question
Your company has an Azure subscription.
You need to deploy a number of Azure virtual machines (VMs) using Azure Resource Manager (ARM) templates. You have been informed that the VMs will be included in a single availability set.
You are required to make sure that the ARM template you configure allows for as many VMs as possible to remain accessible in the event of fabric failure or maintenance.
Which of the following is the value that you should configure for the platformUpdateDomainCount property?
- A. 10
- B. 20 Correct
- C. 30
- D. 40
Explanation
The platformUpdateDomainCount property should be set to 20 because Azure availability sets can be configured with up to twenty update domains, which helps ensure that as many VMs as possible remain accessible during maintenance events.
