VMware vRealize Automation 8.x (2022) — Question 35

Which two statements are correct regarding Spring Boot auto-configuration customization? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Use the @AutoConfigureAfter or @AutoConfigureBefore annotations to apply configuration in a specific order.
• B. Disable specific auto-configuration classes by using the exclude attribute on the @EnableAutoConfiguation annotation.
• C. Provide customized auto-configuration by subclassing the provided Spring Boot auto-configuration classes.
• D. Enable component scanning within auto-configuration classes to find necessary components.
• E. Control the order of auto-configuration classes applied with @AutoConfigureOrder.

Correct answer: A, B

Explanation

The correct answers, A and B, are valid because @AutoConfigureAfter and @AutoConfigureBefore allow users to dictate the order of configuration, while the exclude attribute can disable certain auto-configurations. Options C, D, and E are incorrect as they do not represent valid methods for customizing auto-configuration or are not best practices.
