You want to make a copy of a production Linux virtual machine in the US-Central region. You want to manage and replace the copy easily if there are changes on the production virtual machine. You will deploy the copy as a new instances in a different project in the US-East region.
What steps must you take?

• A.Create a snapshot of the root disk, create an image file in Google Cloud Storage from the snapshot, and create a new virtual machine instance in the US-East region using the image file for the root disk.
• B.Use the Linux dd and netcat command to copy and stream the root disk contents to a new virtual machine instance in the US-East region.
• C.Create an image file from the root disk with Linux dd command, create a new disk from the image file, and use it to create a new virtual machine instance in the US-East region
• D.Create a snapshot of the root disk and select the snapshot as the root disk when you create a new virtual machine instance in the US-East region.

For this question, refer to the Mountkirk Games case study
Mountkirk Games needs to create a repeatable and configurable mechanism for deploying isolated application environments. Developers and testers can access each other's environments and resources, but they cannot access staging or production resources. The staging environment needs access to some services from production.
What should you do to isolate development environments from staging and production?

• A.Create one subnetwork for development and another for staging and production.
• B.Create a project for development and test and another for staging and production.
• C.Create one project for development, a second for staging and a third for production.
• D.Create a network for development and test and another for staging and production.

To reduce costs, the Director of Engineering has required all developers to move their development infrastructure resources from on-premises virtual machines (VMs) to Google Cloud Platform. These resources go through multiple start/stop events during the day and require state to persist. You have been asked to design the process of running a development environment in Google Cloud while providing cost visibility to the finance department.
Which two steps should you take? Choose 2 answers.

• A.Use the - -no-auto-delete flag on all persistent disks and stop the VM
• B.Use the - -auto-delete flag on all persistent disks and terminate the VM
• C.Apply VM CPU utilization label and include it in the BigQuery billing export
• D.Use Google BigQuery billing export and labels to associate cost to groups
• E.Store all state into local SSD, snapshot the persistent disks, and terminate the VM
• F.Store all state in Google Cloud Storage, snapshot the persistent disks, and terminate the VM
