AZ-104 Exam Dumps - Microsoft Azure Administrator

 Stored access policies: ✅ 2

 Immutable blob storage policies: ✅ 1

From the scenario in the earlier case study (A. Datum Corporation):

The planned change requires creating a new container named cont2 in storage1, with the following:

Three stored access policies (Stored1, Stored2, Stored3)

A legal hold for immutable blob storage

Also, recall from the table:

storage1 has Hierarchical namespace = Yes (Data Lake Storage Gen2 enabled).

storage2 has Hierarchical namespace = No.

The question asks: “What is the maximum number of additional access policies you can create for cont2?”

According to Microsoft Azure Storage documentation:

A blob container can have a maximum of five stored access policies.

These policies allow shared access signatures (SAS) to be managed centrally, letting you define start times, expiry times, and permissions at the container level.

Since three stored access policies (Stored1, Stored2, Stored3) already exist, the maximum additional policies that can still be created is:

→ 5 (maximum allowed) – 3 (already existing) = 2

For immutable blob storage policies:

A container can have one active immutability policy at a time.

This can be either a time-based retention policy or a legal hold policy.

Since cont2 already has a legal hold applied, no additional immutable policy can coexist with it, but it can have one defined policy type (the legal hold).

Therefore:

Stored access policies: 2 additional policies can still be created.

Immutable blob storage policies: 1 policy (the existing legal hold).

This aligns exactly with Microsoft Learn: Azure Storage Blob Service limits and immutable storage documentation:

“A container may have up to five stored access policies. Immutable storage supports either a time-based retention policy or legal hold policy per container.”

Final Verified Answer:

✅ Stored access policies: 2

✅ Immutable blob storage policies: 1

In the scenario, storage1 is configured as StorageV2 with Hierarchical namespace = Yes, while storage2 is configured as StorageV2 with Hierarchical namespace = No.

From Microsoft’s Azure Storage Documentation and AZ-104 Study Guide, the following principles apply:

A hierarchical namespace (enabled when the storage account has Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 capabilities) allows the use of directories within containers to organize data.

The hierarchical namespace provides directory and file-level structure similar to a file system. This is supported only for blob containers, not for Azure Files.

Azure Files (file shares) do not depend on hierarchical namespaces and cannot have directories in the same way Data Lake Gen2 does — directories can exist inside the share but not in the blob container sense.

The planned change states that you must use directories whenever possible to organize content. Therefore, only storage accounts with hierarchical namespace enabled can use directory structures — that’s storage1.

In this case:

storage1 (Hierarchical namespace = Yes) → supports containers (like cont1) and file shares (like share1).

storage2 (Hierarchical namespace = No) → does not support directories within blob containers (Data Lake structure).

Hence, you can use only cont1 (container in storage1) and share1 (file share in storage1) to organize content as required.

This is directly supported by the Microsoft documentation on Data Lake Storage Gen2:

“When you enable the hierarchical namespace for a storage account, you can organize objects into directories and subdirectories. This capability is available only for accounts configured for Data Lake Storage Gen2.”

Final Verified Answer: ✅ B. cont1 and share1 only

In Microsoft Azure, encryption scopes are a StorageV2 (general-purpose v2) storage account feature that allows fine-grained control over encryption settings for data stored within a single account. According to Microsoft Azure Storage documentation, an encryption scope defines a specific encryption context that can be applied at the container or blob level and is supported in non-hierarchical namespace storage accounts (those without Data Lake Gen2 enabled).

In the given scenario:

storage1 has Hierarchical namespace = Yes (Data Lake Storage Gen2 enabled).

storage2 has Hierarchical namespace = No.

The plan was to create an encryption scope named Scope1 in storage2.

The technical requirement specifies that Scope1 must be used to encrypt storage services.

According to the Azure Administrator documentation on encryption scopes:

“Encryption scopes are supported for block blobs, append blobs, page blobs, Azure Files, queues, and tables in standard StorageV2 accounts. Encryption scopes are not supported in hierarchical namespace (Data Lake Gen2) enabled accounts.”

This means that Scope1—created in storage2, which does not have hierarchical namespace—can encrypt all blob data (containers and blobs) as well as file shares, queues, and tables.

However, storage1 cannot use encryption scopes because hierarchical namespace storage accounts (ADLS Gen2) manage encryption at the account level and do not support per-scope encryption.

Therefore, only storage2 can apply Scope1, and it can encrypt containers, blobs, file shares, queues, and tables.

In Microsoft Azure, containerized application deployment can occur using multiple services, depending on the image type and operating system platform used. The question refers to two images — Image1 (Windows Server) and Image2 (Linux) — which are stored in an Azure Container Registry (ACR).

According to the Microsoft Azure Administrator Study Guide (AZ-104) and official Azure documentation, both Windows-based and Linux-based container images can be deployed using any of the following services, depending on the workload requirements:

Azure App Service (Web App for Containers) – supports both Windows and Linux containers for web applications. It allows developers to directly deploy containerized applications from Docker Hub, Azure Container Registry, or a private registry.

Azure Container Apps – serverless container hosting designed for microservices and event-driven architectures. It supports Linux and Windows containers, using Kubernetes behind the scenes, without requiring users to manage the cluster infrastructure.

Azure Container Instances (ACI) – provides lightweight, serverless containers for quick deployment and isolated workloads. It supports both Windows and Linux images and can pull directly from Azure Container Registry.

Therefore, since both Image1 (Windows Server) and Image2 (Linux) are valid container images supported by the same three Azure container services, the correct and verified solution is to select “App Service, Azure Container Apps, or Azure Container Instances” for both.

This matches Azure documentation under:

“Run containerized applications in Azure App Service”

“Deploy containers using Azure Container Instances”

“Build and deploy microservices using Azure Container Apps”

Each of these Azure services supports containerized deployments from ACR regardless of the underlying operating system image type.

Final Verified Answer:

✅ Image1: App Service, Azure Container Apps, or Azure Container Instances

✅ Image2: App Service, Azure Container Apps, or Azure Container Instances

IdFix is used to perform discovery and remediation of identity objects and their attributes in an on-premises Active Directory environment in preparation for migration to Azure Active Directory. IdFix is intended for the Active Directory administrators responsible for directory synchronization with Azure Active Directory.

Scenario: Active Directory Issue

Several users in humongousinsurance.com have UPNs that contain special characters.

You suspect that some of the characters are unsupported in Azure AD.

Scenario: Licensing Issue

1. You attempt to assign a license in Azure to several users and receive the following error message: " Licenses not assigned. License agreement failed for one user. "

2. You verify that the Azure subscription has the available licenses.

Solution:

License cannot be assigned to a user without a usage location specified.

Some Microsoft services aren ' t available in all locations because of local laws and regulations. Before you can assign a license to a user, you must specify the Usage location property for the user. You can specify the location under the User  >  Profile  >  Settings section in the Azure portal.

B: You can gradually roll out Seamless SSO to your users. You start by adding the following Azure AD URL to all or selected users ' Intranet zone settings by using Group Policy in Active Directory: https://autologon.microsoftazuread-sso.com

E: Seamless SSO works with any method of cloud authentication - Password Hash Synchronization or Pass-through Authentication, and can be enabled via Azure AD Connect.
