B : API

C : consul watch

D : envconsul

A developer recently updated the value for app1, causing the deployment to fail.

What Consul feature can be used to monitor the K/V store for updates and automatically take action to remediate the issue?

A : set up an ACL to automatically restart the Consul service when a value is changed

B : configure a watch and execute a script to update the application

C : set up health checks to monitor for changes to the K/V store

Question 4

You have two Consul datacenters and you want to enable federation so services in dc1 can discover services in dc2. You run the consul join wan node2.example.com.

However, servers in dc1 can not communicate with servers in dc2 and vice versa. Based on the snippets of the server configuration files can be found below, why would

this be assuming network connectivity is working as expected?

dc1 configuration

1. "datacenter": "dc1",

2. "server": true,

3. "key_file": "/etc/consul.d/cert.key",

4. "cert_file": "/etc/consul.d/client.pem",

5. "ca_file": "/etc/consul.d/chain.pem",

6. "verify_incoming": true,

7. "verify_outgoing": true,

8. "verify_server_hostname": true,

9. "ui": true,

10. "encrypt": "XIUEktl3YjG9KPJfaBU1xE69IZ0XhsNCSH423FyknJE=",

11. "bootstrap_expect": 5,

12. "enable_syslog": true,

dc2 configuration

1. "datacenter": "dc2",

2. "server": true,

3. "key_file": "/etc/consul.d/cert.key",

4. "cert_file": "/etc/consul.d/client.pem",

5. "ca_file": "/etc/consul.d/chain.pem",

6. "verify_incoming": true,

7. "verify_outgoing": true,

8. "verify_server_hostname": true,

9. "ui": true,

10. "encrypt": "LSBSOZI5+9EX/kdY8u27mX50rk1ywcprfUCoSZjnpUg=",

11. "bootstrap_expect": 5,

12. "enable_syslog": false,

A : the gossip keys need to match between federated datacenters

B : the verify_incoming setting should be set to false before WAN federation can be configured

C : the client certificates are issued from different CAs

D : the syslog configurations do not match

Answer: A
