2.

You’re running an application that requires 15,000 IOPS on an Azure VM. You provisioned one VM with the Standard_D8s_v3 tier. It provides 12,800 IOPS, a P30 operating system disk with 5,000 IOPS, and two P30 data disks with 5,000 IOPS each. Which of the following statements is true?

You met the application’s demands.

VM I/O capping prevents the application from receiving the demanding IOPS.

Disk I/O capping prevents the application from receiving the demanding IOPS.

3.
