AWS Certified Solutions Architect study material · question 15 of 500

Why does AWS refuse to delete a service-linked role while dependent resources still exist?

  1. Because deletion is only permitted during a maintenance window
  2. To stop an account accidentally removing the access those resources rely on
  3. Because service-linked roles can never be deleted at all
  4. Because the role is owned by the organization management account
Show the answer

Answer: B. To stop an account accidentally removing the access those resources rely on

The dependency check protects resources from losing the permissions they need; once they are gone the role can be deleted.
