In a vSAN stretched cluster, which value must be set in the vSAN policy if there is no requirement for data mirroring across sites?

A. SFTT = 0

B. SFTT = 1

C. PFTT = 1

D. PFTT = 0

An administrator is setting up vSAN file services on a vSAN cluster.

Which two security policies on the distributed port groups are automatically enabled in the process? (Choose two.)

A. Forged Transmits

B. Promiscuous Mode

C. DVFiltering

D. Jumbo Frames

E. MacLearning

A customer is planning to deploy a vSAN cluster to host their in-house distributed ERP system. The hardware specifications for their server nodes include:

2 x Intel Xeon CPU E5-2697 v3 @ 2.60GHz 1TB memory

Which boot device is supported for the vSAN ESXi nodes for this customer?

A. A 16GB single-level cell (SLC) SATADOM device must be used.

B. A 4GB USB or SD device must be used.

C. A 16GB multiple-level cell (MLC) SATADOM device must be used.

D. ESXi Hosts must boot from a PMEM device.

Upon checking the latency goal under vSAN performance diagnostics, the vSAN Administrator sees this

message displayed:

The increase in latency in the vSAN stack might be beyond expected limits.

Which two root causes can be identified to help remediate the issue? (Choose two.)

A. vSAN VMKemel portgroup is configured with the “Route based on IP hash” teaming policy

B. vSAN encryption is enabled

C. Large packet losses and retransmissions on the network layer

D. Incorrect sizing of the disk groups capacity disks

E. One or more disk groups are congested

Due to the success of the recently deployed developer-only private cloud solution, a company has a new requirement to at least double the usable capacity in their all-flash vSAN cluster.

The vSAN cluster is deployed into a co-located datacenter that is owned by a third-party hosting company. The hosting company charges a fixed monthly cost for rack space and power consumption. The service owner has been given a limited budget for additional hardware purchases, but not for on-going co-location costs.

The current vSAN cluster has the following configuration: 10 vSAN Nodes with 2 CPUs (20 cores), 512 GB RAM

1 Disk Group per vSAN node

-1 x 400 GB

-4 x 1.8 TB

De-duplication and Compression is enabled.

vSAN Capacity is currently:

-Total: 72 TB

-Usable: ~40 TB (FTT1/RAID1) and ~60 TB (FTT1/RAID5).

As a result of any action taken, the service owner would like to ensure that overall availability of the vSAN cluster is increased.

Which two recommendations meet the requirement to increase capacity while maintaining service availability? (Choose two.)

A. Install an additional 400 GB SSD and 4 x 1.8 TB SSDs per vSAN node.

B. Update the existing Disk Group, and claim the newly installed drives for each node.

C. Create a new Disk Group, and claim the newly installed cache and capacity SSD drives for each node.

D. Install an additional 3 x 1.8 TB SSDs per vSAN node.

E. Replace existing SSDs with an 800 GB SSD and 4 x 3.8 TB SSDs per vSAN node.

A customer has upgraded to vSAN 7, but there is still an existing legacy host which must be removed from the vSAN cluster.

Which three steps must an administrator take to successfully remove this host from the vSAN cluster? (Choose three.)

A. Place the host in maintenance mode with Ensure Accessibility

B. Disconnect from vCenter Server

C. Place the host in maintenance mode with Full Data migration

D. Place the host in maintenance mode with no data migration

E. Remove from vSAN cluster

F. Delete the disk group(s) on the legacy host

A cache disk failure marked a vSAN disk group as failed, and the data is being rebuilt on other disk groups.

Which action should the vSAN administrator take to reduce the negative impact on the VMs?

A. Enabling Resync Throttling

B. Enabling Maintenance mode with no data evacuation

C. Enabling automatic rebalance

D. Setting the vSAN policy's IOPS limit for object value to 0 (unlimited)

A 4-node vSAN cluster is configured with an erasure coding storage policy. The Ensure Accessibility maintenance mode was selected. While performing the maintenance, a second node fails.

What will be the impact on the vSAN cluster?

A. There will be no impact on performance.

B. The VMs will no longer be accessible.

C. The performance will be degraded.

D. The VMs will be in a suspended state.

A customer is planning to migrate their physical Microsoft SQL Server clustered workloads to vSAN enabled vSphere clusters.

The following requirements must be met:

Each MSSQL cluster is made up of 3 nodes Highest possible availability against node failures Some of the vSAN clusters will only consume storage

What should the architect recommend?

A. vSAN iSCSI Target Service

B. Stretched vSAN Cluster

C. vSAN Direct

D. vSAN File Services

During a planning session for new vSAN clusters in multiple data centers, the customer relayed the following information:

Highest possible mitigation during a host failure in terms of capacity. A constraint in this year's IT budget.

What should the architect recommend?

A. Enable operations reserve. A minimum cluster of 3 vSAN nodes.

B. Enable host build reserve. A minimum cluster of 4 vSAN nodes.

C. Enable performance services. A minimum cluster of 6 vSAN nodes.

D. Enable IOInsight Metrics. A minimum cluster of 2 vSAN ROBO nodes.
