Actual exam question for Amazon's PAS-C01 exam

Question #: 26
Topic #: 2

A company has an SAP environment that runs on AWS. The company wants to enhance security by restricting Amazon EC2 Instance Metadata Service (IMDS) to IMDSv2 only. The company's current configuration option supports both iMDSvi and iM0Sv2. The security enhancement must not create an SAP outage.

What should the company do before it applies the security enhancement on EC2 instances that are running the SAP environment?

AEnsure that the SAP kernel versions are 7.45 or later

BEnsure that the EC2 instances are Nitro based

CEnsure that the AWS Data Provider for SAP is installed on each EC2 instance

DStop the EC2 instances

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

Snowball Edge allows for offline data transfer, which is suitable for cases where there is slow and inconsistent internet connectivity. The data can be transferred to the Snowball Edge device, shipped to the AWS region, and then imported into the new SAP HANA system in the VPC. This is a suitable option for migrating large amounts of data from a remote location to AWS.

I think stopping the EC2 instances before applying the security enhancement could also be a good precautionary measure to prevent any disruptions.

Hmm, restricting IMDS to IMDSv2 sounds like a good security move, but we need to make sure it doesn't disrupt the SAP environment. I'd go with option C - the AWS Data Provider for SAP should ensure a smooth transition.

I agree with Elvis. It's important to check the SAP kernel versions to avoid any potential issues with the security enhancement.
