Google Cloud Associate Cloud Engineer — Question 203

Your managed instance group raised an alert stating that new instance creation has failed to create new instances. You need to solve the instance creation problem. What should you do?

Answer options

• A. Create an instance template that contains valid syntax which will be used by the instance group. Delete any persistent disks with the same name as instance names.
• B. Create an instance template that contains valid syntax that will be used by the instance group. Verify that the instance name and persistent disk name values are not the same in the template.
• C. Verify that the instance template being used by the instance group contains valid syntax. Delete any persistent disks with the same name as instance names. Set the disks.autoDelete property to true in the instance template.
• D. Delete the current instance template and replace it with a new instance template. Verify that the instance name and persistent disk name values are not the same in the template. Set the disks.autoDelete property to true in the instance template.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because creating an instance template with valid syntax and deleting conflicting persistent disks resolves the issue of instance creation failure. Options B, C, and D include additional steps that may not be necessary, such as verifying name values or setting properties, which do not address the immediate problem of invalid instance creation due to naming conflicts.
