Given the below resource configuration-resource "aws_instance" "web" { # ... count = 4 }

What does the terraform resource address aws_instance.web refer to?

A. It refers to all 4 web instances , together , for further individual segregation , indexing is required , with a 0 based index.

B. It refers to the last web EC2 instance , as by default , if no index is provided , the last / N-1 index is used.

C. It refers to the first web EC2 instance out of the 4 ,as by default , if no index is provided , the first / 0th index is used.

D. The above will result in a syntax error , as it is not syntactically correct . Resources defined using count , can only be referenced using indexes.

During a terraform plan, a resource is successfully created but eventually fails during provisioning. What happens to the resource?

A. Terraform attempts to provision the resource up to three times before exiting with an error

B. the terraform plan is rolled back and all provisioned resources are removed

C. it is automatically deleted

D. the resource is marked as tainted

resource "aws_s3_bucket" "example" { bucket = "my-test-s3-terraform-bucket" ...} resource "aws_iam_role" "test_role" { name = "test_role" ...}

Due to the way that the application code is written , the s3 bucket must be created before the test role is created , otherwise there will be a problem. How can you ensure that?

A. This will already be taken care of by terraform native implicit dependency. Nothing else needs to be done from your end.

B. Add explicit dependency using depends_on . This will ensure the correct order of resource creation.

C. Create 2 separate terraform config scripts , and run them one by one , 1 for s3 bucket , and another for IAM role , run the S3 bucket script first.

D. This is not possible to control in terraform . Terraform will take care of it in a native way , and create a dependency graph that is best suited for the parallel resource creation.

You wanted to destroy some of the dependent resources from real infrastructure. You choose to delete those resources from your configuration file and run terraform plan and then apply. Which of the following way your resources would be destroyed?

A. Terraform can still determine the correct order for destruction from the state even when you delete one or more items from the configuration.

B. Those would be destroyed in the order in which they were written in the configuration file previously before you have deleted them from configuration file.

C. The resource will be destructed in random order as you have already deleted them from configuration.

D. You can not destroy resources by deleting them from configuration file and running plan and apply.
