Difficulty: EasyAzure Resources, Resource Groups, Subscriptions, and Management Groups

An administrator is planning the deployment of several Azure resources. They create a resource group named RG-Prod in the East US region.

Which of the following statements regarding the deployment constraints and capabilities of resource groups are correct? (Select two.)

  1. Resources placed within RG-Prod can be located in regions other than East US.Answer
  2. A resource group cannot be nested inside another resource group.Answer
  3. C
    All resources deployed inside RG-Prod must reside in the East US region.
  4. D
    RG-Prod can contain other resource groups to establish a hierarchical folder structure.

Answer

Resources placed within RG-Prod can be located in regions other than East US, and a resource group cannot be nested inside another resource group.
The correct options state that resources inside a resource group can be located in different regions and that resource groups cannot be nested. This accurately reflects Azure resource group design rules.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Evaluate the relationship between resource location and resource group location.
Resources do not need to share the same region as the resource group containing them.
The resource group's location is only used to store metadata about the resources, not to restrict the resources' deployment locations.
2
Evaluate whether resource groups can be structured hierarchically.
Resource groups cannot contain other resource groups.
Azure Resource Manager uses a flat organization for resource groups under a subscription, meaning nesting is not supported.
