Question 480
At Oakridge Public Services, the citizen data administration team maintains a municipal case-management and application database platform with requirements for reproducible configuration and controlled access. The acceptance review requires independent evidence for: An administrator runs Azure PowerShell under a personal account with excessive rights for a recurring database scale adjustment. Which observed result BEST proves the intended problem is corrected?
Explanation
Correct Answer
The automation scales only the intended SQL resource and a test request against a protected neighboring resource is denied. That observable result supports resolution of: An administrator runs Azure PowerShell under a personal account with excessive rights for a recurring database scale adjustment. The corresponding corrective change is: Use an appropriate automation identity and narrowly scoped Azure PowerShell commands to apply approved resource changes. The Oakridge Public Services reviewer can distinguish demonstrated database behavior from an untested change claim.
Incorrect Answers
A harmless property update completes without replacing the database resource or losing a test record. That result is evidence for another corrective change: Use non-destructive declarative update semantics and explicitly guard replacements and deletions with policy and approvals. The alternative problem is: An automation script deletes and recreates Azure SQL resources whenever a harmless property changes, risking unnecessary data loss. The current Oakridge Public Services issue is instead: An administrator runs Azure PowerShell under a personal account with excessive rights for a recurring database scale adjustment. Its decisive acceptance evidence would be: The automation scales only the intended SQL resource and a test request against a protected neighboring resource is denied.
A deliberately failed dependency causes the pipeline to fail and a corrected deployment passes private DNS and SQL connection tests. That result is evidence for another corrective change: Monitor operation status and nested deployment errors, then require health and connectivity checks before declaring the release successful. The alternative problem is: An Azure resource deployment is recorded as finished even though a dependent private endpoint and DNS zone association failed. The current Oakridge Public Services issue is instead: An administrator runs Azure PowerShell under a personal account with excessive rights for a recurring database scale adjustment. Its decisive acceptance evidence would be: The automation scales only the intended SQL resource and a test request against a protected neighboring resource is denied.
The test rollout changes only intended region resources and a deployment diff confirms no unintended SKU changes elsewhere. That result is evidence for another corrective change: Provide distinct reviewed environment parameters and validated region-specific conditions for infrastructure automation. The alternative problem is: A multiregion database rollout uses one shared production parameter set for every environment and accidentally changes the secondary SQL region's SKU. The current Oakridge Public Services issue is instead: An administrator runs Azure PowerShell under a personal account with excessive rights for a recurring database scale adjustment. Its decisive acceptance evidence would be: The automation scales only the intended SQL resource and a test request against a protected neighboring resource is denied.
