You are deploying an SAP environment across Azure Availability Zones. The environment has the following components:
ASCS/ERS instances that use a failover cluster
SAP application servers across the Azure Availability Zones
Database high availability by using a native database solution
For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Solution:
Box 1: No
Azure Availability Zones are physically separate locations within an Azure region protecting customers’ applications and data from datacenter-level failures. It is good for applications that require low-latency synchronous replication with protection from datacenter-level failures.
Box 2: Yes
AAP application server to database server latency can be tested with ABAPMeter report /SSA/CAT. Box 3: Yes
To analyze network issue or measure network metrics you can test the connection using SAP's NIPING program. You can use NIPING to analyze the network connection between any two machines running SAP software.

You plan to deploy an SAP environment on Azure that will use Azure Availability Zones. Which load balancing solution supports the deployment?
Correct Answer:B
When you deploy Azure VMs across Availability Zones and establish failover solutions within the same Azure region, some restrictions apply:
You can't use an Azure Basic Load Balancer to create failover cluster solutions based on Windows Server Failover Clustering or Linux Pacemaker. Instead, you need to use the Azure Standard Load Balancer SKU.

You are designing the backup for an SAP database.
You have an Azure Storage account that is configured as shown in the following exhibit.
Use the drop-down menus to select the answer choice that completes each statement based on the information presented in the graphic.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Solution:
Box 1: standard solid-state drives (SSDs)
Standard SSD Managed Disks, a low-cost SSD offering, are optimized for test and entry-level production workloads requiring consistent latency.
Box 2: to another Azure region
Geo-redundant storage (GRS) copies your data synchronously three times within a single physical location in the primary region using LRS. It then copies your data asynchronously to a single physical location in a secondary region that is hundreds of miles away from the primary region.

You plan to migrate an SAP environment to Azure.
You need to recommend a solution to migrate the SAP application servers to Azure. The solution must minimize downtime and changes to the environments.
What should you include in the recommendation?
Correct Answer:D
Site Recovery is used to manage and orchestrate disaster recovery of on-premises machines and Azure VMs. However, it can also be used for migration. Migration uses the same steps as disaster recovery with one exception. In a migration, failing machines over from your on-premises site is the final step. Unlike disaster recovery, you can't fail back to on-premises in a migration scenario.
