Oracle Cloud Infrastructure 2021 Multicloud Architect Associate — Question 33

You are launching a Windows server in your Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) tenancy. You provided a startup script during instance initialization, but it was not executed successfully.
What is a possible reason for this error? (Choose the best answer.)

Answer options

• A. Didn't include anything in user_data.
• B. Wrote a custom script which tried to install GPU drivers.
• C. Ran a cloudbase-init script instead of cloud-init.
• D. Specified a #directive on the first line of your script.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because cloudbase-init is not compatible with Windows instances in OCI, which require cloud-init for scripts to run. Options A, B, and D are unlikely to cause the script execution failure; for instance, user_data can be empty, and the presence of directives or attempts to install drivers won't inherently prevent script execution.
