Practice - 5 Tasks

easy

Complete the code to specify the type of resource in Deployment Manager.

GCP

resources:
- name: my-vm
  type: [1]

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using a storage bucket type instead of a VM instance type.

Confusing SQL instance type with compute instance type.

The type field defines the resource type. For a VM instance, use compute.v1.instance.

medium

Complete the code to set the machine type for the VM instance.

GCP

resources:
- name: my-vm
  type: compute.v1.instance
  properties:
    zone: us-central1-a
    machineType: [1]

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using only the machine type name without zone path.

Confusing instance name with machine type.

The machineType property requires the full path including zone and machine type name.

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the YAML to correctly define the disk size property.

GCP

resources:
- name: my-vm
  type: compute.v1.instance
  properties:
    disks:
    - deviceName: boot
      type: PERSISTENT
      boot: true
      autoDelete: true
      initializeParams:
        diskSizeGb: [1]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A10

B10GB

C'10GB'

D'10'

Attempts:

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Adding units like 'GB' to the disk size value.

Using quotes around the number causing it to be a string.

The diskSizeGb property expects an integer value without quotes or units.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to define a firewall rule allowing TCP port 80.

GCP

resources:
- name: allow-http
  type: compute.v1.firewall
  properties:
    network: [1]
    allowed:
    - IPProtocol: [2]
      ports:
      - '80'

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using just 'default' instead of full network path.

Using UDP instead of TCP for HTTP traffic.

The network property needs the full path to the default network. The IPProtocol for HTTP is tcp.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to create a metadata entry with key 'startup-script' and a simple echo command.

GCP

resources:
- name: my-vm
  type: compute.v1.instance
  properties:
    metadata:
      items:
      - key: [1]
        value: [2]
      - key: [3]
        value: 'ignored'

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A'startup-script'

B'#!/bin/bash\necho Hello World'

C'shutdown-script'

D'echo Hello World'

Attempts:

3 left

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Omitting quotes around keys and values.

Using incorrect keys for metadata entries.

The metadata key for startup scripts is startup-script. The value is a bash script string. The second key is shutdown-script as an example.
