Question: 1

Every employee of your company has a Google account. Your operational team needs to manage a large
number of instances on Compute Engine. Each member of this team needs only administrative access to
the servers. Your security team wants to ensure that the deployment of credentials is operationally
efficient and must be able to determine who accessed a given instance. What should you do?

A. Generate a new SSH key pair. Give the private key to each member of your team. Configure the public
key in the metadata of each instance.
B. Ask each member of the team to generate a new SSH key pair and to send you their public key. Use a
configuration management tool to deploy those keys on each instance.
C. Ask each member of the team to generate a new SSH key pair and to add the public key to their
Google account. Grant the “compute.osAdminLogin” role to the Google group corresponding to this
team.
D. Generate a new SSH key pair. Give the private key to each member of your team. Configure the public
key as a project-wide public SSH key in your Cloud Platform project and allow project-wide public SSH
keys on each instance.

B. Select Cloud SQL (MySQL). Select the create failover replicas option.
C. Select Cloud Spanner. Set up your instance with 2 nodes.
D. Select Cloud Spanner. Set up your instance as multi-regional.

Question: 4

You want to configure autohealing for network load balancing for a group of Compute Engine instances
that run in multiple zones, using the fewest possible steps. You need to configure re-creation of VMs if
they are unresponsive after 3 attempts of 10 seconds each. What should you do?

A. Create an HTTP load balancer with a backend configuration that references an existing instance group.
Set the health check to healthy (HTTP).
B. Create an HTTP load balancer with a backend configuration that references an existing instance group.
Define a balancing mode and set the maximum RPS to 10.
C. Create a managed instance group. Set the Autohealing health check to healthy (HTTP).
D. Create a managed instance group. Verify that the autoscaling setting is on.

Answer: C

In order to enable auto-healing, you need to group the instances into a managed instance group.
Managed instance groups (MIGs) maintain the high availability of your applications by proactively

keeping your virtual machine (VM) instances available. An auto-healing policy on the MIG relies on an
application-based health check to verify that an application is responding as expected. If the auto-healer
determines that an application isnt responding, the managed instance group automatically recreates
that instance.
It is important to use separate health checks for load balancing and for auto-healing. Health checks for
load balancing can and should be more aggressive because these health checks determine whether an
instance receives user traffic. You want to catch non-responsive instances quickly, so you can redirect
traffic if necessary. In contrast, health checking for auto-healing causes Compute Engine to proactively
replace failing instances, so this health check should be more conservative than a load balancing health
check.

Question: 5

You are using multiple configurations for gcloud. You want to review the configured Kubernetes Engine
cluster of an inactive configuration using the fewest possible steps. What should you do?

A. Use gcloud config configurations describe to review the output.

B. Use gcloud config configurations activate and gcloud config list to review the output.
C. Use kubectl config get-contexts to review the output.
D. Use kubectl config use-context and kubectl config view to review the output.

Answer: D
Explanation:

Reference: https://medium.com/google-cloud/kubernetes-engine-kubectl-config-b6270d2b656c

kubectl config view -o jsonpath='{.users[].name}' # display the first user

kubectl config view -o jsonpath='{.users[*].name}' # get a list of users
kubectl config get-contexts # display list of contexts
kubectl config current-context # display the current-context
kubectl config use-context my-cluster-name # set the default context to my-cluster-name
