1Z0-1072-25 Question 30
Select 2Your company needs to deploy the same Compute instance configuration in multiple OCI regions for disaster recovery. You decide to create a custom image of your production instance in the Ashburn region and replicate it to the Phoenix region. Which two statements about OCI Compute image options will help you achieve this goal? (Choose two)
- A
You can create a custom image from a running or stopped instance, then copy it across regions using the OCI Console or CLI.
- B
You can export a custom image to Object Storage and import that same image in different regions to launch identical instances.
- C
You must always power down the source instance before creating a custom image or the process will fail.
- D
You can only create custom images from Oracle-supplied base images, not from an existing instance� boot volume.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B
Explanation
To achieve multi-region deployments with consistent configurations in OCI, you can create custom images from your running or stopped instances. These images can be copied directly to other regions, or you can export them to Object Storage and import them in the destination region. Refer to OCI Documentation (https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/Compute/Tasks/managingcustomimages.htm) for further details on best practices for managing, copying, and exporting custom images.
- A. Correct.
CORRECT. OCI supports creating custom images from instances in either a running or stopped state. After creating the custom image in Ashburn, you can use the 'Copy Image' feature in the Console or the CLI to replicate the image to other regions.
- B. Correct.
CORRECT. OCI allows you to export a custom image to Object Storage in one region and then import it into another region. This approach is useful if you need a portable method to store and transfer your images.
- C. Incorrect.
INCORRECT. While it� recommended to stop an instance to ensure data consistency, it� not a strict requirement. The process can succeed with a running instance, though you should confirm that your application� state is consistent.
- D. Incorrect.
INCORRECT. You can create a custom image from an existing instance� boot volume, not just from Oracle-supplied images. This allows you to capture a configured environment as a custom image.
