I think I've got it! Controls can be identified from a library, ad-hoc, and from indicator results. Time to mark those three options.

The question mentions "Product Cost by Period", so I'm guessing the answer has to do with the settlement profile or variance variant. I'll have to think this through carefully.

This looks like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully review the server.conf stanzas to identify which one indicates the Indexer Discovery feature hasn't been fully configured.

Okay, I think I have a strategy here. I'll need to look at the Azure virtual machine options and see which ones support auto-failover while also being cost-effective.
