AZ-104 - Implement and Manage Storage - Section 2.2

Configure and manage storage accounts including redundancy and networking options.

Compare LRS, ZRS, and GRS redundancy options and choose the appropriate tier based on durability and regional failover requirements. Restrict storage account network access using storage firewalls and virtual network rules, and use private endpoints to expose storage exclusively over a private IP address within a virtual network.

An administrator configures a virtual network rule that grants a subnet access to a geo-redundant storage account. They assume a separate rule is needed before that subnet can reach the read-only geo-redundant (RA-GRS) instance. Is a separate rule required for the RA-GRS instance?

  • AYes
  • BNo Correct
A virtual network rule granting access to a storage account also grants access to its RA-GRS instance. No is correct because the documentation states that virtual network rules that grant access from a virtual network to a storage account also grant access to any RA-GRS instance, so no separate rule is needed.

Why A is wrong: Answering Yes would wrongly imply the RA-GRS instance needs its own network rule, but access to the primary account already extends to the RA-GRS instance.

Why B is correct: Correct. No is correct because the documentation states that virtual network rules that grant access from a virtual network to a storage account also grant access to any RA-GRS instance, so no separate rule is needed.
