AI-102 Implement generative AI solutions Practice Question
Network Topology
You run the Azure CLI command shown in the exhibit to create an online endpoint for a generative AI model. The deployment fails because the selected VM instance type is not available in the East US region. Which action should you take to resolve the issue?
⚠ Common exam trap
Watch out — candidates often think increasing instance count or switching to a batch endpoint will bypass the regional SKU limitation, but neither changes the underlying VM type or region, so the deployment will still fail.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Specify a different VM type or region that supports Standard_NC6s_v3
The deployment failed because the Standard_NC6s_v3 VM instance type is not available in the East US region. The correct action is to either choose a different VM type that is available in East US or deploy to a different region that supports Standard_NC6s_v3. This directly addresses the root cause of the failure, as Azure Machine Learning online endpoints require the selected VM SKU to be available in the target region.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Increase the instance count to 2
Why it's wrong here
Instance count does not affect availability of VM type.
- ✓
Specify a different VM type or region that supports Standard_NC6s_v3
Why this is correct
Choosing an available VM type or region resolves the issue.
- ✗
Use a batch endpoint instead of online endpoint
Why it's wrong here
Batch endpoints are for offline processing, not real-time inference.
- ✗
Change --compute-type to CPU
Why it's wrong here
CPU is not suitable for large generative models.
