  • A Set up an internet gateway. Update the route table on the subnets to use the internet gateway to route traffic to Amazon S3.
  • B Set up an S3 VPC gateway endpoint. Update the route table on the subnets to use the gateway endpoint to route traffic to Amazon S3.
  • C Set up additional NAT gateways in each Availability Zone. Update the route table on the subnets to use the NAT gateways to route traffic to Amazon S3.
  • D Set up an egress-only internet gateway. Update the route table on the subnets to use the egress-only internet gateway to route traffic to Amazon S3.

Question #47 Topic 1

A user has launched an EC2 instance from an instance store backed AMI. The user has attached an additional instance store volume to the instance. The user wants to create an AMI from the running instance. Will the AMI have the additional instance store volume data?

  • A Yes, the block device mapping will have information about the additional instance store volume
  • B No, since the instance store backed AMI can have only the root volume bundled
  • C It is not possible to attach an additional instance store volume to the existing instance store backed AMI instance
  • D No, since this is ephemeral storage it will not be a part of the AMI
Suggested Answer: A
NOTE: When the user has launched an EC2 instance from an instance store backed AMI and added an instance store volume to the instance in addition to the root device volume, the block device mapping for the new AMI contains the information for these volumes as well. In addition, the block device mappings for the instances those are launched from the new AMI will automatically contain information for these volumes.
Question #48 Topic 1

What does Amazon IAM stand for?

  • A Amazon Identity and Authentication Mechanism
  • B Amazon Integrated Access Management
  • C Amazon Identity and Access Management
  • D None of these

Question #49 Topic 1

A user has enabled the CloudWatch alarm to estimate the usage charges. If the user disables moni-toring of the estimated charges but does not delete the billing alert from the AWS account, what will happen?

  • A The user cannot edit the existing billing alarm.
  • B The data collection on estimated charges is stopped.
  • C It is not possible to disable monitoring of the estimated charges.
  • D AWS will stop sending the billing alerts to the user.
Suggested Answer: C
NOTE: To create an alarm on the estimated AWS usage charges, a user must enable monitoring of estimated AWS charges. This enables creating the metric data, which will be used to create a billing alarm. Once the estimated charges monitoring is enabled, the user cannot disable it. The user has to delete the alarms to stop receiving any notifications on billing.
