You are launching a new project in the US West (Phoenix) region. You would like to reserve the compute capacity mentioned below so that the capacity is available for your workloads when you need it.
10 VM.Standard2.2 Instances
6 VM.Standard.E4.Flex Instances
The project also requires you to be mindful about high availability and place the instances in at least two Availability Domains.
At a bare minimum, how many capacity reservations would you create to meet this requirement?
To ensure high availability and meet the requirement of placing instances in at least two Availability Domains, you need to create separate capacity reservations in each domain. Given the need for 10 VM.Standard2.2 instances and 6 VM.Standard.E4.Flex instances, you would need 2 capacity reservations for VM.Standard2.2 instances and 2 for VM.Standard.E4.Flex instances, totaling to four reservations. Therefore, the correct answer is Four.
you would need at least 4 reservations (2 for VM.Standard2.2 and 2 for VM.Standard.E4.Flex) to meet the requirement of having capacity reservations for the specified instances in at least two Availability Domains. The correct answer is A. Four.
