Which PowerShell command correctly establishes the partnership?

# Environment Details

Source Cluster: HCI-SiteA

Source RG: RG_SiteA

Source Volume: C:ClusterStorageVolume1

Destination Cluster: HCI-SiteB

Destination RG: RG_SiteB

Destination Volume: C:ClusterStorageVolume1_rep

9. A deployment engineer is finalizing the setup of a single-node Azure Stack HCI cluster in Windows Admin Center. The engineer wants to ensure that detailed hardware health information, such as power supply status and firmware versions, is visible directly within the WAC interface. The engineer also needs to manage iDRAC settings from WAC.

Which actions must be performed? (Select all that apply.)

10. 1. A cloud administrator is automating the registration of several Azure Stack HCI clusters using PowerShell. They plan to use a service principal for authentication instead of an interactive device login.

Which parameters are required for the Register-AzStackHCI cmdlet to perform a non-interactive registration using a service principal? (Choose 2.)

11. An administrator is registering an Azure Stack HCI cluster using Windows Admin Center. They are prompted to select a region for the cluster resource.

What is the primary purpose of selecting an Azure region during registration?

12. An administrator needs to connect their Windows Admin Center (WAC) gateway to an Azure Government cloud instead of the standard public Azure cloud.

When using the Register-AzStackHCI cmdlet to register a cluster through this WAC instance, which parameter must be used to specify the correct cloud environment?

13. A developer is setting up a small, cost-effective environment for testing an application on Azure Stack HCI. They choose to deploy a single-node cluster.

What is the primary resiliency benefit offered by a single-node cluster configuration?

14. A deployment engineer is creating a four-node stretched cluster using PowerShell, with two nodes at each site. To provide resilience against a site failure, data must be mirrored across both sites.

Which resiliency settings should be used when creating volumes with New-Volume to ensure data is protected against the failure of an entire site? (Select all that apply.)

15. A deployment engineer is using the Windows Admin Center wizard to create a single-node Azure Stack HCI cluster. During the "Storage" step, the wizard fails at the "Enable Storage Spaces Direct" stage.

Upon reviewing the drives, the engineer sees the following:

- Disk 1: 240 GB SSD, Partitioned (C:), OS Boot Drive

- Disk 2: 1.92 TB NVMe, Unpartitioned, Media Type: UNKNOWN

- Disk 3: 1.92 TB NVMe, Unpartitioned, Media Type: UNKNOWN

Which of the following is the most likely reason for the failure?

16. A support engineer has been granted "Diagnostics and Repair" access level via Remote Support to an Azure Stack HCI cluster. An investigation reveals that a specific service related to the cluster's cloud management is stalled.

Which of the following actions is the support engineer now permitted to take that would NOT have been allowed with "Diagnostics" access alone?

17. An administrator is writing a PowerShell script to create the volumes for a newly deployed stretched cluster. The cluster has nodes in 'Site1' and 'Site2'. They need to ensure that the newly created volume, CSV-Data, is owned by a node in 'Site1' and replicates its data to a log volume in 'Site2'.

Which cmdlet is used to create the replication partnership between the volumes?

18. A solution architect is designing a PowerShell script to automate the deployment of a stretched cluster. To ensure a successful deployment, several Windows features must be installed on each node.

Which of the following features are essential for a stretched cluster deployment using Storage Spaces Direct and must be installed on all nodes? (Select all that apply.)

19. A system administrator is using the Windows Admin Center Cluster Creation wizard for a new Azure Stack HCI deployment.

During which specific step of the wizard are core Windows features such as Hyper-V and Failover Clustering installed on the selected servers?

20. A cloud administrator is using a Windows Admin Center gateway that is installed on a server in a workgroup, not joined to a domain.

Which of the following is a key consideration when managing domain-joined Azure Stack HCI cluster nodes from this workgroup-based WAC gateway?

21. An administrator has deployed a single-node Azure Stack HCI cluster. They now want to scale out the cluster by adding a second node to create a two-node cluster for high availability.

Which of the following statements about this expansion process are correct? (Choose 2.)

22. A developer team wants to deploy and manage containerized applications using Kubernetes on their company's on-premises Azure Stack HCI cluster. They want to use Azure's native tools and management plane to do this.

Which Azure service allows for the creation and management of Kubernetes clusters directly on Azure Stack HCI infrastructure?

23. A solution architect is designing a hybrid cloud solution where data from on-premises file servers running on Azure Stack HCI needs to be tiered to the cloud to save local storage space, with only a cache of the most frequently accessed files kept on-premises.

Which Azure service is built for this specific purpose?

24. An IT Manager wants to automate operating system updates across their fleet of Azure Stack HCI clusters. They need a single service in Azure that can assess update status, schedule installations, and manage the update process for all their registered clusters from one central location.
