QuestionQ406

Maintain SAP workloads on Azure

You have an SAP production landscape in Azure.

A SQL Server instance on an Azure virtual machine named SQL1 hosts an SAP database.

You discover that CPU resources on SQL1 are underutilized.

You need to recommend a solution that minimizes licensing costs for SQL1.

What should you do?

  • A Apply an Azure reservation to SQL1.
  • B Change SQL1 to a constrained vCPU size.
  • C Change SQL1 to a compute optimized size.
  • D Change SQL1 to a memory optimized size.
Explanation

Constrained vCPU VM sizes reduce the number of active vCPUs, and SQL Server licensing is based on the available vCPU count. They preserve the parent VM size's memory, storage, and I/O bandwidth, allowing SQL Server licensing costs to be reduced when CPU capacity is underused.
