NEW QUESTION # 25
The current implementation of Terraform import can only import resources into the state. It does not generate
configuration.
- A. False
- B. True
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
The current implementation of Terraform import can only import resources into the state. It does not generate
configuration. A future version of Terraform will also generate configuration.
Because of this, prior to running terraform import it is necessary to write manually a resource configuration
block for the resource, to which the imported object will be mapped.
While this may seem tedious, it still gives Terraform users an avenue for importing existing resources.

NEW QUESTION # 26
Once a resource is marked as tainted, the next plan will show that the resource will be _________ and ___________ and the next apply will implement this change.
- A. destroyed and not recreated
- B. destroyed and recreated
- C. tainted and not destroyed
- D. recreated and tainted
Answer: B
NEW QUESTION # 27
During a terraform plan, a resource is successfully created but eventually fails during provisioning. What happens to the resource?
- A. it is automatically deleted
- B. the terraform plan is rolled back and all provisioned resources are removed
- C. the resource is marked as tainted
Explanation
If a resource successfully creates but fails during provisioning, Terraform will error and mark the resource as "tainted". A resource that is tainted has been physically created, but can't be considered safe to use since provisioning failed. Terraform also does not automatically roll back and destroy the resource during the apply when the failure happens, because that would go against the execution plan: the execution plan would've said a resource will be created, but does not say it will ever be deleted. - D. Terraform attempts to provision the resource up to three times before exiting with an error
Answer: C
NEW QUESTION # 28
Provider dependencies are created in several different ways. Select the valid provider dependencies from the following list: (select three)
- A. Existence of any provider plugins found locally in the working directory.
- B. Use of any resource belonging to a particular provider in a resource or data block in configuration.
- C. Existence of any resource instance belonging to a particular provider in the current state.
- D. Explicit use of a provider block in configuration, optionally including a version constraint.
Answer: B,C,D
Explanation:
The existence of a provider plugin found locally in the working directory does not itself create a provider dependency. The plugin can exist without any reference to it in the terraform configuration. https://www.terraform.io/docs/commands/providers.html

- A. All passwords should be rotated on a quarterly basis.
- B. It makes the code less reusable.
- C. Terraform code is typically stored in version control, as well as copied to the systems from h it's run.
Any of those may not have robust security mechanisms. - D. The Terraform code is copied to the target resources to be applied locally and could expose secrets if a
target resource is compromised.
Answer: C,D
NEW QUESTION # 32
You have a Terraform configuration that defines a single virtual machine with no references to it, You have run terraform apply to create the resource, and then removed the resource definition from your Terraform configuration file.
What will happen you run terraform apply in the working directory again?
- A. Terraform will remove the virtual machine from the state file, but the resource will still exist
- B. Terraform will error
- C. Terraform will destroy the virtual machine
- D. Nothing
Answer: C
Explanation:
This is what will happen if you run terraform apply in the working directory again, after removing the resource definition from your Terraform configuration file. Terraform will detect that there is a resource in the state file that is not present in the configuration file, and will assume that you want to delete it.

NEW QUESTION # 36
True or False? When using the Terraform provider for Vault, the tight integration between these HashiCorp tools provides the ability to mask secrets in the terraform plan and state files.
- A. True
- B. False
Answer: B
Explanation:
Currently, Terraform has no mechanism to redact or protect secrets that are returned via data sources, so secrets read via this provider will be persisted into the Terraform state, into any plan files, and in some cases in the console output produced while planning and applying. These artifacts must, therefore, all be protected accordingly.
NEW QUESTION # 37
