NEW QUESTION 44
You have an Azure subscription that contains a storage account.
An application sometimes writes duplicate files to the storage account.
You have a PowerShell script that identifies and deletes duplicate files in the storage account. Currently, the script is run manually after approval from the operations manager.
You need to recommend a serverless solution that performs the following actions:
Runs the script once an hour to identify whether duplicate files exist
Sends an email notification to the operations manager requesting approval to delete the duplicate files Processes an email response from the operations manager specifying whether the deletion was approved Runs the script if the deletion was approved What should you include in the recommendation?
- A. Azure Logic Apps and Azure Functions
- B. Azure Functions and Azure Batch
- C. Azure Pipelines and Azure Service Fabric
- D. Azure Logic Apps and Azure Event Grid
Answer: A

Your company has deployed several virtual machines (VMs) on-premises and to Azure. Azure ExpressRoute has been deployed and configured for on-premises to Azure connectivity.
Several VMs are exhibiting network connectivity issues.
You need to analyze the network traffic to determine whether packets are being allowed or denied to the VMs.
