You are building an Azure virtual machine.
You allocate two 1-TiB, P30 premium storage disks to the virtual machine. Each disk provides 5,000 IOPS.
You plan to migrate an on-premises instance of Microsoft SQL Server to the virtual machine. The instance has a database that contains a 1.2-TiB data file. The database requires 10,000 IOPS.
You need to configure storage for the virtual machine to support the database.
Which three objects should you create in sequence? To answer, move the appropriate objects from the list of objects to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.

Correct Answer:

Follow these same steps to create striped virtual disk:
Create Log Storage Pool.
Create Virtual Disk
Create Volume
Box 1: a storage pool
Box 2: a virtual disk that uses stripe layout
Disk Striping: Use multiple disks and stripe them together to get a combined higher IOPS and Throughput limit. The combined limit per VM should be higher than the combined limits of attached premium disks.
Box 3: a volume

Step 1: Create a master key on database.
1. Create a master key on the database. The master key is required to encrypt the credential secret.
(Create a database scoped credential for Azure blob storage.)
Step 2: Create an external data source for Azure Blob storage.
2. Create an external data source with CREATE EXTERNAL DATA SOURCE..
Step 3: Create an external file format to map the parquet files.
3. Create an external file format with CREATE EXTERNAL FILE FORMAT.
