1Z0-1085-26 Governance And Administration Practice Question
An administrator creates a new dynamic group with matching rules, but instances belonging to that group are not receiving the permissions granted by the policy referencing the dynamic group. What is the most likely cause?
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
✓
No IAM policy has been created that grants permissions to the dynamic group.
For a dynamic group to receive permissions, an IAM policy must be written granting access to that specific dynamic group name (e.g., 'Allow dynamic-group <group-name> to...').
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Dynamic group names are case-insensitive in rules but case-sensitive in IAM policies, causing a mismatch.
Why it's wrong here
The primary reason permissions fail when a group is created is the complete absence of the associated policy statement.
- ✗
The instances must be terminated and relaunched for dynamic group membership to evaluate.
Why it's wrong here
Dynamic group membership evaluates automatically without requiring instance termination.
- ✗
Dynamic groups cannot be used in IAM policies; only user groups can.
Why it's wrong here
Dynamic groups are fully supported as principals in OCI IAM policies.
- ✓
No IAM policy has been created that grants permissions to the dynamic group.
Why this is correct
Creating a dynamic group defines who the principal is, but an IAM policy is still required to grant them access.
