A cloud engineer wants to create a VM named whiz-server-1 with four CPUs.

The number of CPUs is specified with the machine type parameter. For this, use gcloud compute machine-types list to get a list of available machine types. If not specified, the default type is n1-standard-1. Here, the cloud engineer is using 4 CPUs so it will be n1-standard-4 followed by the VM name.<br \/>\n<strong>Option A is correct<\/strong>. gcloud compute instances create &#8211;machine-type=n1-standard-4 whiz-server-1 is the correct command to create VM with 4 CPUs. It includes a correct machine type and specifies the name of the instance properly.<br \/>\n<strong>Option B is incorrect<\/strong>. The command gcloud compute instances create &#8211;cpus=4 whiz-server-1 is wrong. This command includes cpus parameter that does not exist in a google cloud command.<br \/>\n<strong>Option C is incorrect<\/strong>. The command gcloud compute instances create &#8211;machine-type=n1-standard-4 \u2013instance-name whiz-server-1 is not correct to create a VM instance.This command uses the instance-name parameter that does not exist in a google cloud command. The instance name is passed as an argument and it does not require any parameter name.<br \/>\n<strong>Option D is incorrect<\/strong>. gcloud compute instances create &#8211;machine-type=n1-4-cpu whiz-server-1 is not a correct command to create a VM instance. The machine type specified here is n1-4-cpu which is an invalid machine type. It should be n1-standard-4.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q 8. You have set a firewall rule that will permit inbound connections to a VM instance named whizserver-2. You want to apply this rule only if there is not another rule that would deny that traffic. What priority would you give to this rule?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A. 1000<br \/>\nB. 1<br \/>\nC. 65535<br \/>\nD. 0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Correct Answer &#8211; Option C<\/strong><br \/>\nIf the rule will have the lowest priority, it will permit inbound traffic\/ connections to the VM instance whizserver-2. The large will be the number, the low will be the priority. The lowest priority will ensure that the other rules that match will apply. So, the largest number should be selected to make the priority lowest.<br \/>\n<strong>Option A is incorrect<\/strong>. 1000 is not the largest number from the given options. For the lowest priority, it is required to choose the largest number.<br \/>\n<strong>Option B is incorrect<\/strong>. 1 is a very small number, it will increase the priority.
