Question 21

Michael has deployed many resources in AWS using Terraform and can easily update or destroy resources when required by the application team. A new employee, Dwight, is working with the application team and deployed a new EC2 instance through the AWS console. When Michael finds out, he decided he wants to manage the new EC2 instance using Terraform moving forward. He opens his terminal and types:

$ terraform import aws_instance.web_app_42 i-b54a26b28b8acv7233

However, Terraform returns the following error: Error: resource address "aws_instance.web_app_42" does not exist in the configuration.

What does Michael need to do first in order to manage the new Amazon EC2 instance with Terraform?

configure the appropriate tags on the Amazon EC2 resource so Terraform knows that it should manage the resource moving forward

create a configuration for the new resource in the Terraform configuration file, such as:

resource "aws_instance" "web_app_42" {

# (resource arguments)

}

Terraform cannot manage resources that were provisioned manually

import the configuration of the EC2 instance called web_app_42 from AWS first

Question 22

Which feature of Terraform Enterprise can be used to enforce fine-grained policies to enforce standardization and cost controls before resources are provisioned with Terraform?

remote runs

module registry

workspaces

sentinel

Question 23

Which of the following Terraform CLI commands are valid? (select five)

Question 24

When running a terraform plan, how can you save the plan so it can be applied at a later time?

use the -file flag

use the -save flag

use the -out flag

you cannot save a plan

Question 25

Infrastructure as Code (Iac) provides many benefits to help organizations deploy application infrastructure much faster than clicking around in the console. What are the additional benefits to IaC? (select three)

Select all that apply

code can easily be shared and reused

allows infrastructure to be versioned

eliminates parallelism

creates a blueprint of your data center

can always be used to deploy the latest features and services

Question 26

There are multiple ways to authenticate when using a Terraform provider. However, several methods will result in sensitive information being written to the state file, which is not desirable. Which method below will not result in sensitive information being written to the state file.

retrieving the credentials from a data source, such as HashiCorp Vault

using a tfvars file

using environment variables

using a declared variable

Question 27

Pam just finished up a new Terraform configuration file and has successfully deployed the configuration on Azure using Terraform open-source. After confirming the configuration on Azure, Pam changes to a new workspace and then heads to lunch. When she arrives back at her desk, Pam decides to destroy the resources to save on cost. When Pam executes a terraform destroy, the output indicates there are no resources to delete.

Why can't Pam delete the newly created resources in Azure?

the Terraform state was deleted when she created the new workspace

there is no Terraform state in the current workspace she is working in

Terraform reached the maximum timeout while Pam was away from lunch, therefore the resources were automatically destroyed

an Azure administrator manually deleted the resources

Question 28

Given the following snippet of code, what will the value of the "Name" tag equal after a terraform apply?

data_processing

IS Team

a random hex value

an empty string

Question 29

True or False? A terraform plan is a required step before running a terraform apply?

False

True

Question 30

AutoPlants, Inc is a new startup that uses AI and robotics to grow sustainable and organic vegetables for California farmers' markets. The organization can quickly burst into the public cloud during the busy season using Terraform to provision additional resources to process AI computations and images. Since its compute stack is proprietary and critical to the organization, it needs a solution to create and publish Terraform modules that only its engineers and architects can use.

Which feature can provide this functionality?

private module registry

public module registry

Sentinel

Terraform Enterprise Workspaces
