Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Select the Azure SQL Database, then navigate to Automatic tuning settings, then enable the desired options, then save changes.
Why this is correct
This is the correct order because you must first select the database to configure, then access its automatic tuning settings, then enable the specific tuning options, and finally save the configuration.
- ✗
Navigate to Automatic tuning settings, then select the Azure SQL Database, then enable the desired options, then save changes.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because you need to select the database before accessing its automatic tuning settings; navigation to the settings is done from the database blade.
- ✗
Select the Azure SQL Database, then enable the desired options, then navigate to Automatic tuning settings, then save changes.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because you must navigate to the automatic tuning settings before you can enable any options; enabling options without being in the correct settings page is not possible.
- ✗
Enable the desired options, then select the Azure SQL Database, then navigate to Automatic tuning settings, then save changes.
Why it's wrong here
This is incorrect because you cannot enable options before selecting the database or accessing the settings; the steps are completely out of logical order.
