AWS Certified SysOps Administrator – Associate (legacy) — Question 160

A user has created a VPC with public and private subnets using the VPC wizard. The user has not launched any instance manually and is trying to delete the
VPC. What will happen in this scenario?

Answer options

• A. It will not allow to delete the VPC as it has subnets with route tables
• B. It will not allow to delete the VPC since it has a running route instance
• C. It will terminate the VPC along with all the instances launched by the wizard
• D. It will not allow to delete the VPC since it has a running NAT instance

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because a running NAT instance prevents the deletion of the VPC. Options A and B are incorrect as they refer to route tables and running route instances, which are not the primary reasons for preventing deletion in this scenario. Option C is also wrong because there are no instances to terminate since the user hasn't launched any.
