- CAzure PowerShell cmdlets can only be executed locally on Windows-based operating systems, requiring Linux users to use Azure CLI exclusively.
- DAzure Cloud Shell is pre-installed on all Windows and macOS operating systems, allowing offline management of Azure resources without web browser access.
Answer
The correct statements are that both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell can be installed and executed locally on Linux, macOS, and Windows operating systems, and that to use Azure Cloud Shell, a user must have an associated Azure Storage account configured with a file share to persist files across sessions.
The correct options are the statements regarding cross-platform support and the storage account requirement for Azure Cloud Shell. Both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell are cross-platform command-line tools that can be installed on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Additionally, Azure Cloud Shell requires an Azure Storage account to mount a file share, which persists files in the user's home directory across different sessions.
