Microsoft Azure Administrator (AZ104) Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

How does moving a virtual machine to a different resource group affect its connectivity to virtual networks?

It automatically connects to any virtual networks in the new resource group

It requires reconfiguration of network interfaces

When a virtual machine is moved to a different resource group within Azure, its network interfaces are also moved along with it. However, the network configurations, including the associations with virtual networks, remain intact. Because of the way Azure manages resource groups and virtual networks, moving a virtual machine does not, by itself, alter the connectivity to the virtual network; the virtual machine retains its configuration.

In this context, option B suggests that moving the virtual machine requires reconfiguration of network interfaces, which is misleading because an intact network interface should retain its connectivity settings. Once the virtual machine is moved, it does not require any reconfiguration unless there were specific constraints or changes to the virtual network connection.

The correct understanding of this transition is that connectivity is maintained regardless of the resource group. It is crucial to note that while the virtual machine remains connected to the original virtual network after being moved, any changes that might occur in terms of connectivity or configuration are based on the settings in the new or original context rather than the movement itself.

Other choices hinge on misconceptions about how Azure manages resources: moving does not inherently connect the VM to new networks or limit its options, and no reconfiguration is necessary unless specific scenarios warrant it.
