A backup administrator manages three Recovery Services vaults. They need a single place to review the latest job outcome across all vaults, and then drill into the failed job details for one VM. Which two Azure experiences should they use? Select two.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Good practice is not just finding the correct option. The wrong answers often show the exact trap the exam wants you to fall into.
A
Best answer
Azure Backup center
Backup center provides a consolidated view for backup management across vaults and subscriptions.
B
Best answer
Recovery Services vault > Backup jobs
The vault's backup jobs view shows detailed status for individual protected items.
C
Distractor review
Azure Monitor metric chart
Metric charts are useful for performance monitoring, but they do not show backup job history.
D
Distractor review
Azure Activity Log
Activity Log records control-plane actions, not the outcome of scheduled backup jobs.
E
Distractor review
Resource Health
Resource Health reports resource availability, not whether backup operations succeeded.
Common exam trap
Common exam trap: NAT rules depend on direction and matching traffic
NAT is not only about the public address. The inside/outside interface roles and the ACL or rule that matches traffic are just as important.
Technical deep dive
How to think about this question
NAT questions usually test address translation, overload/PAT behaviour, static mappings and whether the right traffic is being translated. Read the interface direction and address terms carefully.
KKey Concepts to Remember
- Static NAT maps one inside address to one outside address.
- PAT allows many inside hosts to share one public address using ports.
- Inside local and inside global describe the private and translated addresses.
- NAT ACLs identify traffic for translation, not always security filtering.
TExam Day Tips
- Identify inside and outside interfaces first.
- Check whether the scenario needs static NAT, dynamic NAT or PAT.
- Do not confuse NAT matching ACLs with normal packet-filtering intent.

Question 1
A route table contains these entries: 10.0.0.0/8 with next hop Virtual appliance, and 10.1.1.0/24 with next hop Virtual network gateway. Which next hop will Azure use for traffic to 10.1.1.5?
Question 2
You are deploying a stateless web application on Azure virtual machines. The solution must automatically add and remove instances based on CPU demand and allow all instances to be managed as one logical group. Which Azure compute feature should you deploy?
Question 3
You are deploying a Windows Server VM for an internal app. The VM must support Secure Boot and vTPM later, its OS disk must survive host moves, and the team wants the lowest-cost managed disk tier that still behaves like a normal writable OS disk. Which two choices should you make? Select two.
Question 4
You need to deploy several identical virtual machines and ensure that the failure of a single Azure host does not affect all of them. Which feature should you use?
Question 5
You need to connect VNet-Hub and VNet-Spoke so that resources in both virtual networks can communicate privately over the Microsoft backbone. Both virtual networks are in the same region. What should you configure?
Question 6
You need to create a storage account that provides the lowest-cost redundant storage for non-critical data and only needs protection against local disk or server failure within a single datacenter. Which redundancy option should you choose?
FAQ
Questions learners often ask
What does this AZ-104 question test?
Static NAT maps one inside address to one outside address.
What is the correct answer to this question?
The correct answer is: Azure Backup center — Azure Backup center is the best single pane of glass for viewing backup posture and recent job outcomes across multiple vaults and resources. When the administrator needs drill-down detail for one protected VM, the Recovery Services vault's Backup jobs blade provides the job-specific status and failure information. This combination matches the requirement for both centralized oversight and detailed troubleshooting. Metric charts, activity logs, and resource health do not report backup execution results. Why others are wrong: Metric charts measure resource performance, not backup operations. Activity Log captures management events such as configuration changes, but it does not record whether a scheduled backup succeeded or failed. Resource Health describes the health of an Azure resource itself, which is separate from backup job execution and restore readiness.
