1Z0-1085-26 Getting Started With Oci Practice Question
When you create a compute instance in an OCI region that has three availability domains, and you do not explicitly specify an availability domain or fault domain, how does OCI handle the placement?
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
✓
OCI automatically distributes the instance across availability domains and fault domains for high availability.
If not specified, OCI automatically selects an availability domain and distributes instances across fault domains to ensure high availability.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
OCI places it in the first availability domain and fault domain by default every time.
Why it's wrong here
OCI automatically load-balances placement across availability domains and fault domains.
- ✗
Creation fails until you explicitly choose a fault domain.
Why it's wrong here
OCI handles default placement if omitted.
- ✗
The instance is created in a paused state until placement is manually resolved.
Why it's wrong here
Instances start immediately upon successful default placement.
- ✓
OCI automatically distributes the instance across availability domains and fault domains for high availability.
Why this is correct
OCI automatically places instances to optimize fault tolerance when not explicitly specified.
