Question 2

All of the virtual machines running on a hybrid vSAN datastore have this storage policy assigned:
Failures to Tolerate (FTT) rule is set to "2 Failures - RAID-1 (Mirroring)"
The vSAN administrator needs to reduce the amount of vSAN datastore capacity the virtual machines
will consume.
Which action should the vSAN administrator take to meet this goal?

  • A. Modify the FTT rule to "2 Failures - RAID-5 (Erasure Coding)"
  • B. Add the "Flash read cache reservation" rule to the storage policy, and set to 0%
  • C. Disable Operations reserve and Host rebuild reserve and click "Apply"
  • D. Change the FTT rule to "1 Failure - RAID-1 (Mirroring)", and select "Now" for Reapply to VMs

Question 3

A vSAN administrator is using the vSAN ReadyNode Sizer to build a new environment. While entering
the cluster configurations, a fellow colleague inquires about the Operations Reserve option.
What is the purpose of using this option?

  • A. Provides space for internal operations
  • B. Configures space for external operations
  • C. Reserves space for tolerating failures
  • D. Allocates space forvSAN uparades

Question 5

A vSAN administrator has a cluster configured with a Storage Pool that was moved to a new physical
DC.
Upon checking on the vSAN cluster health status, one of the ESXi hosts has two storage devices in a
degraded state and must be replaced.
What must the vSAN administrator do to restore the health of the vSAN cluster with minimum risk?

  • A. Remove the host from ySAN configuration, replace the faulty disks, re-create the storage pool
  • B. Remove the entire storage pool, install the new devices, re-create the storage pool
  • C. Remove the host from the cluster, replace the faulty disks, re-add the host to the cluster
  • D. Remove the devices from the storage pool, replace the storage devices, claim the new devices in vSAN

  • B. DRS is relocating VMs between vSAN nodes.
  • C. A host failure occurs in the cluster

Question 7

A customer wishes to host a new range of applications with high-performance needs, specifically,
low latency.
The applications are required to be hosted at company-owned edge locations, each with minimal
rack space (three host slots per edge location for this project).
Which deployment options would satisfy the customer's needs, while maximizing the amount of
capacity available per deployment?

  • A. A new three-node vSAN 8.0 All-Flash Cluster with OSA in each edge location Each application VM configured with a RAID-5 VM storage policy
  • B. A new three-node vSAN 8.0 All-Flash Cluster with OSA in each edge location Each application VM configured with a RAID-1 VM storage policy
  • C. A new three-node vSAN 8.0 All-Flash Cluster with ESA in each edge location Each application VM configured with a RAID-1 VM storage policy
  • D. A new three-node vSAN 8.0 All-Flash Cluster with ESA in each edge location Each application VM configured with a RAID-5 VM storage policy

Question 9

An administrator is responsible for managing a five-node vSAN cluster. The vSAN Cluster is
configured with both vSphere High Availability (HA) and vSphere Distributed Resource Scheduler
(DRS). The vSAN Cluster is currently hosting 150 virtual machines that have consumed 60% of the
usable capacity.
Each virtual machine belongs to one of the following vSAN Storage Policies:
vSANPolicy1:
Site Disaster Tolerance: None
Failures to Tolerate: 1 failure - RAID-5 (Erasure Coding)
vSANPolicy2:
Site Disaster Tolerance: None
Failures to Tolerate: No data redundancy
Following an unplanned power event within the data center, the administrator has been alerted to
the fact that one host has permanently failed.
What will be the impact to any virtual machine that was running on the failed host using
vSANPolicy1?

  • A. Each virtual machine will be restarted on another vSAN host using vSphere HA.
  • B. Each virtual machine will be unavailable for up to 90 minutes while the automatic recovery process completes.
  • C. vSAN will defer the start of the recovery process for 60 minutes, and the virtual machines will not power on until the recovery process has been completed.
  • D. Each virtual machine must be restored from backup.

  • A. Configure the vSphere Lifecycle Manager to download the updates from an Online Depot.
  • B. Configure the vSphere Lifecycle Manager to download the updates from the VMware Depot using HTTPS.
