How should you assign permissions?

You are an administrator of an Azure subscription for your company.
Management asks you to configure Azure permissions for a user in your Azure Active Directory (Azure AD).
The user must be able to perform all actions on the virtual machines (VMs). The user must not be allowed to
create and manage availability sets for the Vms.
You need to implement the required permissions with the least administrative effort.

I think answer is wrong.
Classic Virtual Machine Contributor can manage Classic virtual machines, but not the virtual network or storage account to which they are connected
Virtual Machine Contributor can manage virtual machines, but not the virtual network or storage account to which they are connected.
The question does not mention classic VMs so my answer is D.

I would go with B.

A is for Classic VMs, the exam is based on ARM VMs and it does not state on the question that the VMs are classic.

C. Custom role is more work.

D. Will give permissions to Microsoft.Compute/availabilitySets/* Create and manage compute availability sets which is not what the question ask for. The “The user must not be allowed to
create and manage availability sets for the Vms.”

Perhaps the question is updated, and now contains a matching answer from ARM? (Although I can’t find one.)

B is definately more correct than A!
