A customer uses Alibaba Cloud Auto Scaling service and creates a scaling group He/she sets the "Minimum number of instances" to 2 and "Maximum number of instances" to 7.
After correctly configuring scaling settings, the customer adds a scaling rule "Add 6 ECS instances", and creates a scheduled task based on this rule.
And then, the customer checks the scaling group and see it already contains 3 valid ECS instances, he/she then enables this scaling group immediately.

Wait, I thought it would just add all 6!

Nope, it’ll only add 4.

I think it should add 6 instances, right?

So, they can only add 4 more to reach the max of 7.

The group starts with 3 instances already.

I feel like the answer could be 2, since it only needs to reach the maximum of 7 instances, but I'm not completely confident.

I'm a bit unsure, but if the rule is to add 6 instances, wouldn't it just add whatever it can up to the max? So maybe 4?

I remember a similar question where we had to calculate the total instances after scaling rules were applied. I think we might end up with 4 additional instances here.

I think the scaling group starts with 3 instances, and since the minimum is 2, it might not add any more.

Okay, I think I've got it - you just need to select the slide and uncheck the "Visible" option. Easy enough!

This seems like a tricky question. I'll need to think carefully about the role of an internal auditor and what their appropriate risk management activities would be.

Hmm, this looks like a straightforward Service Bus configuration question. I'll need to review the Azure CLI and PowerShell commands for managing Service Bus instances.

I'm going to have to go with D. 6 ECS instances. It's like my grandma always said, 'If you're going to scale, scale big or go home.' Alibaba Cloud must be feeling generous with their instance allocations this week.

Definitely, it's always good to have extra capacity ready to go.

Yeah, I agree. With the minimum set to 2 and maximum set to 7, adding 6 makes sense.

I think it's D too. 6 ECS instances sounds about right.

I'm going with B. 2 ECS instances will be added. The scaling rule says to add 6 instances, but the maximum number of instances is 7, and there are already 3 instances in the group. So, the system will only add 2 more instances to reach the maximum of 7.

So, only 2 more instances will be added to reach the maximum.

I agree, the maximum is 7 and there are already 3 instances.

I think it will be 2 ECS instances added.

The answer is clearly D. 6 ECS instances will be added. What's the point of setting a maximum if you're not going to use it? I bet the person who wrote this question is an Alibaba Cloud salesperson trying to trick us into buying more resources than we need.

Yeah, it's important to always be aware of the resources you're using and not fall for unnecessary upsells.

I think the answer is C. 4 ECS instances will be added, because the current number of instances is 3, and the scaling rule is to add 6 instances. So, the total number of instances will be 3 + 6 = 9, which is more than the maximum of 7, so it will only add 4 instances to reach the maximum of 7.

So the correct answer is D) 6, that makes sense based on the customer's configuration.

The correct answer is D. 6 ECS instances will be added to the scaling group when the scheduled task is activated. The scaling group has a minimum of 2 instances and a maximum of 7 instances, and the scaling rule is to add 6 instances. Since there are already 3 instances in the group, adding 6 more will bring the total to 9, which is within the maximum limit of 7.

Exactly, the customer will end up with a total of 9 ECS instances in the scaling group

I agree with Kristofer, the scheduled task will add 6 ECS instances to the scaling group.

I think the answer is D) 6 because the customer set the rule to add 6 ECS instances.
