HashiCorp Certified: Terraform Associate — Question 150

____________ backends support state locking.

Answer options

• A. Some
• B. No
• C. Only local
• D. All

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is 'Some' because not every backend has the capability for state locking, which is a feature that some backends offer to manage state consistency. Options 'No' and 'All' are incorrect as they either dismiss any backends that support it or imply that every backend does, which is not true. 'Only local' is also incorrect because it suggests that only the local backend has this capability, overlooking others that may provide state locking.
