AWS Certified SysOps Administrator – Associate (legacy) — Question 147

A user has configured ELB with Auto Scaling. The user suspended the Auto Scaling AddToLoadBalancer (which adds instances to the load balancer. process for a while). What will happen to the instances launched during the suspension period?

Answer options

• A. The instances will not be registered with ELB and the user has to manually register when the process is resumed
• B. The instances will be registered with ELB only once the process has resumed
• C. Auto Scaling will not launch the instance during this period due to process suspension
• D. It is not possible to suspend only the AddToLoadBalancer process

Correct answer: A

Explanation

When the AddToLoadBalancer process is suspended, any instances launched during that time will not be automatically registered with the ELB. Therefore, the user must manually register these instances once the process is resumed. The other options are incorrect because instances are still launched but just not registered until the process resumes.
