NEW QUESTION # 51
Your customer is receiving reports that their recently updated Google App Engine application is taking approximately 30 seconds to load for some of their users. This behavior was not reported before the update. What strategy should you take?

  • A. Roll back to an earlier known good release, then push the release again at a quieter period to investigate. Then use Stackdriver Trace and logging to diagnose the problem.
  • B. Roll back to an earlier known good release initially, then use Stackdriver Trace and logging to diagnose the problem in a development/test/staging environment.
  • C. Work with your ISP to diagnose the problem.
  • D. Open a support ticket to ask for network capture and flow data to diagnose the problem, then roll back your application.

Answer: B

Explanation:
Stackdriver Logging allows you to store, search, analyze, monitor, and alert on log data and events from Google Cloud Platform and Amazon Web Services (AWS). Our API also allows ingestion of any custom log data from any source. Stackdriver Logging is a fully managed service that performs at scale and can ingest application and system log data from thousands of VMs. Even better, you can analyze all that log data in real time.

NEW QUESTION # 54
For this question, refer to the JencoMart case study
A few days after JencoMart migrates the user credentials database to Google Cloud Platform and shuts down the old server, the new database server stops responding to SSH connections. It is still serving database requests to the application servers correctly. What three steps should you take to diagnose the problem? Choose 3 answers

  • A. Check inbound firewall rules for the network the machine is connected to.
  • B. Delete the instance, attach the disk to a new VM, and investigate.
  • C. Take a snapshot of the disk and connect to a new machine to investigate.
  • D. Connect the machine to another network with very simple firewall rules and investigate.
  • E. Delete the virtual machine (VM) and disks and create a new one.
  • F. Print the Serial Console output for the instance for troubleshooting, activate the interactive console, and investigate.

Answer: A,C,F

Explanation:
https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/troubleshooting/troubleshooting-ssh D: Handling "Unable to connect on port 22" error message Possible causes include:
There is no firewall rule allowing SSH access on the port. SSH access on port 22 is enabled on all Compute Engine instances by default. If you have disabled access, SSH from the Browser will not work. If you run sshd on a port other than 22, you need to enable the access to that port with a custom firewall rule.
The firewall rule allowing SSH access is enabled, but is not configured to allow connections from GCP Console services. Source IP addresses for browser-based SSH sessions are dynamically allocated by GCP Console and can vary from session to session.

NEW QUESTION # 67
One of the developers on your team deployed their application in Google Container Engine with the Dockerfile below. They report that their application deployments are taking too long.

You want to optimize this Dockerfile for faster deployment times without adversely affecting the app's functionality.
Which two actions should you take? Choose 2 answers.

  • A. Remove Python after running pip.
  • B. Remove dependencies from requirements.txt.
  • C. Copy the source after the package dependencies (Python and pip) are installed.
  • D. Use larger machine types for your Google Container Engine node pools.
  • E. Use a slimmed-down base image like Alpine linux.

Answer: C,E

Explanation:
The speed of deployment can be changed by limiting the size of the uploaded app, limiting the complexity of the build necessary in the Dockerfile, if present, and by ensuring a fast and reliable internet connection.
Note: Alpine Linux is built around musl libc and busybox. This makes it smaller and more resource efficient than traditional GNU/Linux distributions. A container requires no more than 8 MB and a minimal installation to disk requires around 130 MB of storage. Not only do you get a fully-fledged Linux environment but a large selection of packages from the repository.
