An Azure administrator plans to run a PowerShell script that creates Azure resources.

You need to recommend which computer configuration to use to run the script.

Solution: Run the script from a computer that runs macOS and has PowerShell Core 6.0 installed.

Does this meet the goal?

Yes

Correct Answer: B

To create Azure resources using a PowerShell script, it's essential to have the Az PowerShell module installed, which provides the necessary cmdlets for managing Azure services. Although PowerShell Core 6.0 can run on macOS and is cross-platform, it is not sufficient on its own. You need to ensure that the Az PowerShell module is installed and compatible with the version of PowerShell being used. Given the lack of mention of the Az PowerShell module in the scenario, the solution does not meet the goal.

Discussion

TheSwedishGuyOption: B

I can't believe there has been 101 replies to this comment section and not one clear answer. So let me provide it easily for you guys: The computer has PowerShell Core 6.0, but it doesn't have the Azure CLI installed. There is no mention of that in the question. You need Azure PowerShell module in addition to PowerShell to run Azure commands, such as New-AzVM. Therefore, the answer should be B, No.

You don't need Azure CLI to run Powershell script.

sdokmak

yup, you don't need Azure CLI tools to script Azure VM deployments in powershell, although would be easier. And even if you wanted to, you can still include the azure cli installation and imports as part of the script.

PowerShell 7.0.6 LTS and PowerShell 7.1.3 or higher is the recommended version of PowerShell for use with the Az PowerShell module on all platforms.

Mole857

Agreed - Just Powershell Core 6.0 is not sufficient. The Azure PowerShell module also needs to be installed.

NujjyOption: B

These questions are poorly worded. You should still need to install the Az module inside powershell core for this to run.

DhamusOption: B

Rishi037Option: A

Yes per chatgpt

e3ddcebOption: A

A. Yes PowerShell Core 6.0 is a cross-platform scripting language that runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux. It can be used to manage Azure resources. Therefore, a macOS computer with PowerShell Core 6.0 installed would meet the requirements to run a PowerShell script that creates Azure resources.

siculoctOption: B

It's NO

426cab0Option: B

B. No PowerShell Core 6.0 is not officially supported on macOS. While PowerShell Core is cross-platform and can run on macOS, the specific version 6.0 mentioned in the solution is outdated, and it's recommended to use a newer version for compatibility and support reasons. Additionally, while PowerShell Core is cross-platform, certain Azure PowerShell modules or cmdlets may have dependencies or limitations specific to Windows environments. Therefore, the recommended approach would be to run the PowerShell script from a computer running Windows with a supported version of PowerShell installed, such as Windows PowerShell or PowerShell 7.x (PowerShell Core). This ensures compatibility and support for Azure PowerShell modules and cmdlets.
