Explanation:
Box 1: Node majority with witness
As a general rule when you configure a quorum, the voting elements in the cluster should be an odd number.
Therefore, if the cluster contains an even number of voting nodes, you should configure a disk witness or a file
share witness.
Note: Mode: Node majority with witness (disk or file share)
Nodes have votes. In addition, a quorum witness has a vote. The cluster quorum is the majority of voting nodes
in the active cluster membership plus a witness vote. A quorum witness can be a designated disk witness or a
designated file share witness.
Box 2: Azure Standard Load Balancer
Microsoft guarantees that a Load Balanced Endpoint using Azure Standard Load Balancer, serving two or more
Healthy Virtual Machine Instances, will be available 99.99% of the time.
Scenario: Business Requirements
Litware identifies business requirements include: meet an SLA of 99.99% availability for all Azure deployments.
Incorrect Aswers:
Basic Balancer: No SLA is provided for Basic Load Balancer.
Note: There are two main options for setting up your listener: external (public) or internal. The external (public)
listener uses an internet facing load balancer and is associated with a public Virtual IP (VIP) that is accessible
over the internet. An internal listener uses an internal load balancer and only supports clients within the same
Virtual Network.
