AWS Certified SysOps Administrator – Associate (legacy) — Question 827

A user creates an Auto Scaling group from the Amazon AWS Console and assigned a tag with a key of "environment" and a value of "Prod". Can the user assign tags to instances launched in the Auto Scaling group, to organize and manage them?

Answer options

• A. Yes, this is possible only if the tags are configured at the launch configuration with a maximum length of 300 characters.
• B. Yes
• C. Yes, this is possible only if the tags are in the same AZ and the tag names are uppercase.
• D. No

Correct answer: B

Explanation

AWS allows you to associate tags with an Auto Scaling group and configure them to automatically propagate to any EC2 instances launched by that group. This is achieved by enabling the 'Propagate at Launch' option during tag creation. There are no restrictive conditions regarding uppercase constraints or specific Availability Zones for this tagging feature to work.
