Question 1

A user creates three workspaces from the command line - prod, dev, and test. Which of the following commands will the user run to switch to the dev workspace?

Aterraform workspace select dev

Bterraform workspace -switch dev

Cterraform workspace dev

Dterraform workspace switch dev

Answer : A

The terraform workspace select command is used to choose a different workspace to use for further operations. https://www.terraform.io/docs/commands/workspace/select.html

Question 2

In terraform, most resource dependencies are handled automatically. Which of the following statements describes best how terraform resource dependencies are handled?

AThe terraform binary contains a built-in reference map of all defined Terraform resource dependencies. Updates to this dependency map are reflected in terraform versions. To ensure you are working with the latest resource dependency map you much be running the latest version of Terraform.

BTerraform analyses any expressions within a resource block to find references to other objects and treats those references as implicit ordering requirements when creating, updating, or destroying resources.

CResource dependencies are identified and maintained in a file called resource. dependencies. Each terraform provider is required to maintain a list of all resource dependencies for the provider and it's included with the plugin during initialization when terraform init is executed. The file is located in the terraform.d folder.

DResource dependencies are handled automatically by the depends_on meta_argument, which is set to true by default.

Answer : B

Terraform analyses any expressions within a resource block to find references to other objects and treats those references as implicit ordering requirements when creating, updating, or destroying resources.

Question 3

A user has created a module called "my_test_module" and committed it to GitHub. Over time, several commits have been made with updates to the module, each tagged in GitHub with an incremental version number. Which of the following lines would be required in a module configuration block in terraform to select tagged version v1.0.4?

Asource = 'git::https://wpexpertsupport.com/my_test_module.git#tag=v1.0.4'

Bsource = 'git::https://wpexpertsupport.com/my_test_module.git@tag=v1.0.4'

Csource = 'git::https://wpexpertsupport.com/my_test_module.git?ref=v1.0.4'

Dsource = 'git::https://wpexpertsupport.com/my_test_module.git&ref=v1.0.4'

Answer : C

By default, Terraform will clone and use the default branch (referenced by HEAD) in the selected repository. You can override this using the ref argument:

module 'vpc' {source = 'git::https://wpexpertsupport.com/vpc.git?ref=v1.2.0'}

The value of the ref argument can be any reference that would be accepted by the git checkout command, including branch and tag names.

Question 4

The following is a snippet from a Terraform configuration file:

1. provider "aws" {

2. region = "us-east-1"

3. }

4. provider "aws" {

5. region = "us-west-1"

6. }

which, when validated, results in the following error:-

1. Error: Duplicate provider configuration

3. on main.tf line 5:

4. 5: provider "aws" {

6. A default provider configuration for "aws" was already given at

7. main.tf:1,1-15. If multiple configurations are required, set the "______"

8. argument for alternative configurations.

Fill in the blank in the error message with the correct string from the list below.

Alabel

Bversion

Calias

Dmulti

Answer : C

An alias meta-argument is used when using the same provider with different configurations for different resources.

Question 5

What is the result of the following terraform function call?

index(["a", "b", "c"], "c")

Btrue

Answer : C
