NEW QUESTION # 42
A customer has deployed a new vSAN Cluster with the following configuration:
* 6 x vSAN ReadyNodes
* All Flash
* 12 TB Raw Storage
* vSAN 8 is deployed with ESA.
VMs are configured with a RAID-5 VM policy.
During failure testing, before the new platform is placed into production one of the ESXi hosts is made unavailable.
Which RAID-5 data placement schemes will vSAN use with this failure condition?
- A. VMware HA will migrate the storage objects to another node in the cluster
- B. vSAN can protect the platform using adaptive RAID 5 if the ESXi host fails to return
- C. The data components on the hosts will be marked as degraded
- D. Some VM data will be unavailable until the failed ESXi host is recovered
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
When a host in a vSAN stretched cluster goes offline, the data components on the hosts will be marked as degraded. This means that the data is still available, but the redundancy level is reduced. vSAN will try to rebuild the missing components on another host in the same fault domain, if there is enough capacity and resources. If the host comes back online within 60 minutes, vSAN will resync the data and restore the redundancy level. If the host does not come back online within 60 minutes, vSAN will rebuild the missing components on another fault domain, if there is enough capacity and resources. This will incur additional network traffic across the witness link. References: VMware vSAN Specialist v2 EXAM 5V0-22.23, page 17
NEW QUESTION # 43
An administrator wishes to prevent vCenter notifications of vSAN Health status during a scheduled maintenance window.
Which action can be taken to achieve this goal?
- A. Disable the alarm from the HTML client
- B. Disable the performance service
- C. Run performance diagnostics prior to scheduled maintenance
- D. Disable SNMP service
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
To prevent vCenter notifications of vSAN Health status during a scheduled maintenance window, the administrator can disable the alarm from the HTML client. This will suppress the alerts for a specified duration or until the alarm is re-enabled. Disabling the performance service, running performance diagnostics, or disabling SNMP service will not affect the vSAN Health status notifications.

NEW QUESTION # 44
A vSAN administrator is planning to deploy a new vSAN cluster with these requirements:
* Physical adapters share capacity among several traffic types
* Guaranteed bandwidth for vSAN during bandwidth contention
* Enhanced security
Which two actions should be taken to configure the new vSAN cluster to meet these requirements? (Choose two.)
- A. Isolate vSAN traffic in a VLAN
- B. Create static routes between the vSAN hosts
- C. Use IOPS Limit rules in storaqe policies
- D. Utilize Network I/O Control
- E. Enable jumbo frames
Answer: A,D
Explanation:
Explanation
Utilizing Network I/O Control and isolating vSAN traffic in a VLAN are the two actions that should be taken to configure the new vSAN cluster to meet the requirements. Network I/O Control allows the vSAN administrator to create network resource poolsand assign bandwidth shares or reservations to different traffic types, such as vSAN, vMotion, or management. This ensures that vSAN traffic has guaranteed bandwidth during contention and can achieve better performance and availability. Isolating vSAN traffic in a VLAN enhances the security of the cluster by preventing unauthorized access or interference from other network segments. It also simplifies the network configuration and management by reducing the broadcast domain and avoiding IP address conflicts. Creating static routes between the vSAN hosts, using IOPS Limit rules in storage policies, and enabling jumbo frames are not necessary or recommended actions for this scenario. Static routes are not required for vSAN communication, as vSAN uses multicast or unicast depending on the version and configuration. IOPS Limit rules are used to limit the IOPS allocated to an object, which can degrade the performance and latency of the application. Jumbo frames can improve the network efficiency and throughput, but they are not mandatory for vSAN and require consistent configuration across all network devices.

NEW QUESTION # 45
An organization plans to implement a new vSAN 8.0 cluster to take advantage of the new features around improved I/O flow, better resiliency, and more efficient disk usage. The vSAN ReadyNodes available for the cluster consist of eight NVMe disks.
How should the organization configure the disk layout?
- A. Use vSAN ESA and create two disk groups with one cache disk and three capacity disks each
- B. Use vSAN OSA and thenew Storage pool configuration where all disks contribute to capacity
- C. Use vSAN OSA and create two disk groups with one cache disk and three capacity disks each
- D. Use vSAN ESA and the new Storage pool configuration where all disks contribute to capacity
Answer: D
Explanation:
Explanation
Using vSAN ESA and the new Storage pool configuration where all disks contribute to capacity is the correct answer because it allows the organization to take advantage of the new features in vSAN 8.0, such as improved I/O flow, better resiliency, and more efficient disk usage. With vSAN ESA, there is no need to create disk groups or designate cache disks, as all disks are treated as capacity disks and use a new algorithm to distribute data across them. This also simplifies the disk management and reduces the overhead of cache management. References:

NEW QUESTION # 46
A vSAN administrator was presented with 30 additional vSAN ReadyNodes to add to an existing vSAN cluster. There is only one administrator to complete this task.
What is the fastest approach?
- A. Use a Host Profile that was extracted from an existing host
- B. Run vim-cmd to capture, and apply the configuration from an existing host
- C. Launch Quickstart to Add Hosts to a vSAN Cluster
- D. Clone the ESXi boot partition to all new hosts, since the hardware is identical
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
To add 30 additional vSAN ReadyNodes to an existing vSAN cluster with the fastest approach, the vSAN administrator should use a Host Profile that was extracted from an existing host. AHost Profile is a configuration template that captures the settings of a reference host and applies them to other hosts or clusters.
This way, the administrator can quickly and consistently configure multiple hosts with the same settings, such as network, storage, security, and services. The other options are not correct. Running vim-cmd to capture and apply the configuration from an existing host is not as fast or convenient as using a Host Profile, as it requires running commands on each host individually. Launching Quickstart to Add Hosts to a vSAN Cluster is not possible, as Quickstart is only available for new clusters or clusters that were configured through Quickstart.
Cloning the ESXi boot partition to all new hosts is not recommended, as it might cause conflicts or errors with the host identity, network settings, or licenses. References: Configuring Hosts Using Host Profile; Using Quickstart to Configure and Expand a vSAN Cluster
NEW QUESTION # 47
A vSAN administrator is tasked to perform an upgrade of a vSAN cluster, including firmware and drivers for its hardware. The vSAN administrator already created an image using vSphere Lifecycle Manager (vLCM).
Prior to selecting Start Remediation, which step should be taken to upgrade the complete vSAN cluster as a single task?
- A. Stage the upgrade of the vSAN cluster through vLCM
- B. Manually remediate one host at a time in the vSAN cluster
- C. Select Remediate All through vLCM to upgrade all hosts in the cluster
- D. Place all hosts in the vSAN cluster into Maintenance Mode
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
To upgrade the complete vSAN cluster as a single task, including firmware and drivers for its hardware, the vSAN administrator should select Remediate All through vLCM to upgrade all hosts in the cluster. This option allows the administrator to apply the image created by vLCM to all hosts in the cluster in a single operation, without having to manually remediate each host individually. The other options are not correct, as they do not perform the upgrade of the vSAN cluster as a single task. Placing all hosts in the vSAN cluster into Maintenance Mode is not necessary, as vLCM will automatically place each host into Maintenance Mode before applying the image. Staging the upgrade of the vSAN cluster through vLCM is only a preparatory step that downloads the image components to each host, but does not apply them. Manually remediating one host at a time in the vSAN cluster is not efficient, as it requires more user intervention and time.

NEW QUESTION # 48
An administrator is troubleshooting a vSAN performance issue. In the vSAN performance monitor there is a high latency on the vSAN cluster.
What is a possible cause of this?
- A. Erasure Coding is disabled in the storage policy.
- B. Jumbo frames are not enabled on the VMkernel adapters.
- C. The Virtual Machines are using PVSCSI controllers.
- D. There is congestion in one or more disk groups.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Explanation
A possible cause of high latency on the vSAN cluster is that there is congestion in one or more disk groups.
Congestion is a measure of how busy the storage devices are in handling I/O requests. When congestion is high, it means that the storage devices are overloaded and cannot process the requests fast enough, resulting in increased latency and reduced throughput. Congestion can be caused by various factors, such as insufficient cache capacity, disk failures, network issues, or heavy workload. The other options are not likely to cause high latency on the vSAN cluster. The Virtual Machines can use PVSCSI controllers without affecting latency, as they are optimized for high performance. Erasure Coding is a space efficiency feature that does not impact latency significantly. Jumbo frames are not required for vSAN, and enabling them does not guarantee lower latency. References: vSAN Performance Monitor; [vSAN Congestion Explained]
NEW QUESTION # 49
What is the purpose of host rebuild reserve in vSAN?
- A. Reserves space for internal operations
- B. Allocates capacity for vCLS
- C. Reserves space in case of single host failure
- D. Stores vSphere HA heartbeats
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
The host rebuild reserve is a feature that allows vSAN to reserve space in the cluster for vSAN to be able to repair in case of a single host failure. This reservation is set to one host worth of capacity, which means that if one host in the vSAN cluster fails and no longer contributes storage, there is still sufficient capacity remaining in the cluster to rebuild and re-protect all vSAN objects. This feature prevents the creation of new VMs or powering on VMs if such operations consume the reserved space. By default, the host rebuild reserve is disabled, but it can be enabled in the vSAN Services configuration. The other options are not related to the hostrebuild reserve. References: vSAN Capacity Management in v7.0U1; Configure Reserved Capacity
NEW QUESTION # 50
An application refactor requires significant storage that is being added for logs stored on a VM vDISK. The application VMs run on a dedicated vSAN enabled vSphere Cluster with custom CPUs and RAM, and therefore, cannot vMotion to another vSAN enabled cluster.
The administrator needs a vSAN feature that can be used to allocate additional storage from another vSAN enabled vSphere cluster to this vSAN enabled Cluster.
Which vSAN feature should be used for this purpose?
- A. vSAN File Services
- B. vSAN Replication
- C. vSAN HCI Mesh
- D. vSAN Stretched Clusters
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
To allocate additional storage from another vSAN enabled vSphere cluster to this vSAN enabled Cluster, the administrator should use the vSAN HCI Mesh feature. This feature allows a vSAN cluster to consume storage resources from another vSAN cluster without requiring the hosts to be part of the same cluster. This way, the administrator can leverage the unused or underutilized storage capacity from another cluster and avoid purchasing new hardware or migrating VMs. The vSAN HCI Mesh feature also supports storage policies, encryption, deduplication and compression, and erasure coding across clusters12 References: 1: VMware vSAN Specialist v2 Exam Preparation Guide, page 15 2: VMware vSAN 7 Update 1 - HCI Mesh 3
NEW QUESTION # 51
An administrator wants to assign a storage policy to a workload on a two-node vSAN OSA cluster consisting of three disk groups each with nested fault domains. The virtual machine must be protected against a disk or disk group failure.
Which two storage policies meet these requirements? (Choose two.)
- A. RAID-1/FTT 1
- B. RAID-6/FTT 2
- C. RAID-1/FTT 3
- D. RAID-5/FTT 1
- E. RAID-5/FTT 2
Answer: A,B
Explanation:
Explanation
To protect a virtual machine against a disk or disk group failure, the storage policy must have a failure tolerance method (FTM) of RAID-1 or RAID-6 and a failure to tolerate (FTT) value of at least 1. RAID-1 mirrors the data across multiple disk groups, while RAID-6 uses erasure coding to stripe the data and parity information across multiple disk groups. RAID-5 is not suitable for this scenario, as it can only tolerate one disk failure per stripe. FTT 2 or 3 would require more disk groups than available in the cluster.
Therefore, the correct options are C and E. References: 1, page 8; 2, section 3.1
NEW QUESTION # 52
What is the maximum amount of capacity disks an administrator can have in disk groups on a single vSAN OSA host?
- A. 0
- B. 1
- C. 2
- D. 3
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
The maximum amount of capacity disks an administrator can have in disk groups on a single vSAN OSA host is 35. This is because a single host can have up to five disk groups, and each disk group can have up to seven capacity disks. Therefore, the maximum number of capacity disks per host is 5 x 7 = 35. The other options are not correct, as they are lower than the maximum number of capacity disks per host. References: Designing and Sizing vSAN Storage; [vSAN ReadyNode Hardware Guidance]
NEW QUESTION # 53
The DevOps team of an organization wants to deploy with persistent storage on a dedicated vSAN cluster. The storage administrator is tasked to configure the vSAN cluster and leverage the vSAN Direct feature.
Which two requirements must the administrator meet to complete this task? (Choose two.)
- A. A valid vSAN license for the vSAN cluster
- B. Unclaimed disks in the hosts forvSAN Direct
- C. HA enabled on the vSAN cluster
- D. A dedicated network for vSAN Direct
- E. An integration with vSAN File Services
Answer: A,B
Explanation:
Explanation
To configure vSAN Direct, the administrator must meet two requirements: a valid vSAN license for the vSAN cluster and unclaimed disks in the hosts for vSAN Direct. A vSAN license is required to enable vSAN features and services, including vSAN Direct. Unclaimed disks are local storage devices that are not used by vSAN or any other service, and can be claimed by vSAN Direct to create datastores for persistent storage. The other options are not requirements for vSAN Direct. HA is an optional feature that can be enabled on any cluster, but is not specific to vSAN Direct. A dedicated network for vSAN Direct is not necessary, as vSAN Direct uses the same network as vSAN. An integration with vSAN File Services is not required, as vSAN Direct does not provide file shares, but block storage. References: Set Up vSAN Direct for vSphere with Tanzu; vSAN Licensing Guide
NEW QUESTION # 54
A vSAN administrator receives a request from the application team to create a virtual machine on a vSAN datastore. The requirements state that the virtual machine needs to be available quickly after a failure occurs.
The solution must minimize administrative effort.
Which vSphere feature should the vSAN administrator implement?
- A. vSphere Distributed Resource Scheduler
- B. Distributed Services Engine
- C. vSphere High Availability
- D. Fault Tolerance
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
vSphere High Availability is the correct answer because it meets the requirements of making the virtual machine available quickly after a failure occurs and minimizing administrative effort. vSphere HA monitors the health and availability of the hosts and virtual machines in a cluster and automatically restarts any failed virtual machines on other hosts within minutes. vSphere HA also supports proactive HA, which can migrate virtual machines from hosts that are about to fail or have degraded performance. vSphere HA is easy to configure and manage, as it only requires enabling HA on the cluster level and setting some basic policies and options. Distributed Services Engine,Fault Tolerance, and vSphere Distributed Resource Scheduler are not valid or optimal solutions for this scenario. Distributed Services Engine is a new feature in vSphere 7 that provides network services such as firewalling, load balancing, routing, and NAT for virtual machines and containers. It does not directly affect the availability or recovery of virtual machines after a failure. Fault Tolerance provides continuous availability for virtual machines by creating a secondary copy of the virtual machine that runs in lockstep with the primary copy on another host. If the primary copy fails, the secondary copy takes over without any interruption or data loss. However, Fault Tolerance has some limitations and overheads, such as requiring dedicated network bandwidth, supporting only one vCPU per virtual machine, and consuming twice as much CPU and memory resources as a single virtual machine. Fault Tolerance also requires more administrative effort than vSphere HA, as it needs to be enabled and configured for each individual virtual machine. vSphere Distributed Resource Scheduler is a feature that balances the workload and resources across a cluster by automatically migrating virtual machines based on their demand and priority.
It does not directly affect the availability or recovery of virtual machines after a failure, although it can work together with vSphere HA to find optimal hosts for restarting failed virtual machines. References:

NEW QUESTION # 55
A vSAN administrator notices that the VMware Skyline Health: Network Latency Check reports indicate that three hosts are noncompliant.
Which action should the vSAN administrator take?
- A. Check VMKNICs, uplinks, physical switches, and associated settings
- B. Immediately reboot the non-compliant hosts
- C. Place the non-compliant hosts into an isolated network partition
- D. Rerun the VMware Skyline Health: vSAN Cluster Partition report
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
The correct answer is B, check VMKNICs, uplinks, physical switches, and associated settings. This is because the VMware Skyline Health: Network Latency Check reports the network latency between vSAN hosts and displays the network latency in real time. Failure indicates that the network latency is above the normal threshold, which can affect the performance and availability of vSAN. The network latency can be caused by various factors, such as misconfiguration, congestion, or errors in the network components. The vSAN administrator should check the VMKNICs, uplinks, physical switches, and associated settings for any issues and resolve them accordingly. The vSAN administrator can also use tools such as vmkping or esxtop to test the network connectivity and performance between hosts. The other options are incorrect for the following reasons:
A, immediately reboot the non-compliant hosts, is incorrect because rebooting the non-compliant hosts is not a recommended action and can cause more disruption and data loss than resolving the network issue. Rebooting the hosts will also trigger a resynchronization of data across the cluster, which can affect the performance and availability of vSAN.
C, rerun the VMware Skyline Health: vSAN Cluster Partition report, is incorrect because rerunning the VMware Skyline Health: vSAN Cluster Partition report will not help to resolve the network latency issue. The vSAN Cluster Partition report checks if there are any network partitions in the cluster that prevent communication between hosts. The network partition can be caused by network latency, but it is not the same as network latency. The vSAN administrator should first fix the network latency issue before checking for any network partitions.
D, place the non-compliant hosts into an isolated network partition, is incorrect because placing the non-compliant hosts into an isolated network partition will not help to resolve the network latency issue.
It will also cause more problemsfor vSAN, such as data inconsistency, reduced redundancy, and degraded performance. The vSAN administrator should avoid creating any network partitions in the cluster and ensure that all hosts can communicate with each other. References:

NEW QUESTION # 56
After a planned power outage, an administrator decided to restart the vSAN cluster manually.
What is the correct sequence of steps for the administrator to follow after powering on the ESXi hosts?
- A. 1. Enable cluster member updates from vCenter Server only on one ESXi host.
2. Run the python reboot helper script only on one ESXi host to recover the cluster.
3. Exit all hosts from maintenance mode. - B. 1. Exit all hosts from maintenance mode.
2. Enable cluster member updates from vCenter Server only on one ESXi host.
3. Run the python reboot helper script only on one ESXi host to recover the cluster. - C. 1. Enable cluster member updates from vCenter Server on all ESXi hosts.
2. Run the python reboot helper script on all ESXi hosts to recover the cluster.
3. Exit all hosts from maintenance mode. - D. 1. Exit all hosts from maintenance mode.
2. Run the python reboot helper script only on one ESXi host to recover the cluster.
3. Enable cluster member updates from vCenter Server on all ESXi hosts.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
This is the sequence of steps recommended by VMware for manually restarting the vSAN cluster after a planned power outage. The steps are as follows:
Enable cluster member updates from vCenter Server only on one ESXi host. This will allow the host to receive the latest cluster membership information from vCenter Server and avoid any conflicts or inconsistencies with other hosts. The command to enable cluster member updates is esxcfg-advcfg -s 1
/VSAN/IgnoreClusterMemberListUpdates.
Run the python reboot helper script only on one ESXi host to recover the cluster. This will prepare the cluster for a manual restart by partitioning the cluster and ensuring that all hosts have consistent metadata. The command to run the python reboot helper script is python
/usr/lib/vmware/vsan/bin/reboot_helper.py prepare.
Exit all hosts from maintenance mode. This will allow the hosts to resume normal operations and join the vSAN cluster. The command to exit maintenance mode is esxcli system maintenanceMode set -e false.
The other options are incorrect for the following reasons:
B, exit all hosts from maintenance mode, run the python reboot helper script only on one ESXi host to recover the cluster, and enable cluster member updates from vCenter Server on all ESXi hosts, is incorrect because exiting all hosts from maintenance mode before running the python reboot helper script can cause data inconsistency or corruption, as the hosts may not have the latest metadata or cluster membership information. Enabling cluster member updates from vCenter Server on all ESXi hosts is also unnecessary and can cause conflicts or inconsistencies with other hosts.
C, exit all hosts from maintenance mode, enable cluster member updates from vCenter Server only on one ESXi host, and run the python reboot helper script only on one ESXi host to recover the cluster, is incorrect because exiting all hosts from maintenance mode before running the python reboot helper script can cause data inconsistency or corruption, as the hosts may not have the latest metadata or cluster membership information.
D, enable cluster member updates from vCenter Server on all ESXi hosts, run the python reboot helper script on all ESXi hosts to recover the cluster, and exit all hosts from maintenance mode, is incorrect because enabling cluster member updates from vCenter Server on all ESXi hosts is unnecessary and can causeconflicts or inconsistencies with other hosts. Running the python reboot helper script on all ESXi hosts concurrently can also cause a race condition that can result in unexpected outcomes.

A site administrator wishes to implement HCI mesh between two clusters on vSAN that are located in geographically separate sites and which are administered within a single datacenter.
Which two requirements should the vSAN administrator consider to accomplish this goal? (Choose two.)
- A. Encryption must be disabled prior to configuring HCI mesh
- B. A leaf spine topology is required for core redundancy and reduced latency
- C. NIC teaming must be implemented for the vSAN network vmkernel port
- D. Either Layer 2 or Layer 3 communications can be used
- E. The configuration must meet the same latency and bandwidth requirement as local vSAN
Answer: D,E
Explanation:
Explanation
To implement HCI mesh between two clusters on vSAN that are located in geographically separate sites, the vSAN administrator should consider the following requirements:
Either Layer 2 or Layer 3 communications can be used. HCI mesh supports both Layer 2 and Layer 3 network configurations, as long as the network latency and bandwidth requirements are met3 The configuration must meet the same latency and bandwidth requirement as local vSAN. HCI mesh requires a network latency of less than or equal to 5 ms RTT between any two hosts in the participating clusters, and a network bandwidth of at least 10 Gbps for the vSAN network vmkernel port3 References: 3: VMware vSAN Specialist v2 Exam Preparation Guide, page 15
NEW QUESTION # 58
What is the purpose of the TRIM/UNMAP process?
- A. Collects vSAN log files
- B. Deletes orphaned snapshots
- C. Reclaims disk space
- D. Repairs internal cache errors
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
The purpose of the TRIM/UNMAP process is to reclaim disk space that is no longer used by the guest operating system or the virtual machine. TRIM and UNMAP are commands that allow the guest operating system to inform the underlying storage layer that certain blocks are no longer in use and can be freed up. This process helps to improve storage efficiency and utilization,especially for thin-provisioned disks that grow dynamically as data is written to them. The other options are not correct. The TRIM/UNMAP process does not collect vSAN log files, repair internal cache errors, or delete orphaned snapshots. These are different tasks that are performed by other tools or processes.

NEW QUESTION # 59
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. Configures space for external operations
- B. Allocates space forvSAN uparades
- C. Reserves space for tolerating failures
- D. Provides space for internal operations
Answer: D
Explanation:
Explanation
The purpose of using the Operations Reserve option in the vSAN ReadyNode Sizer is to provide space for internal operations such as deduplication, compression, encryption, snapshots, clones, and rebalancing. The Operations Reserve is calculated as a percentage of the total usable capacity of the vSAN cluster. The default value is 30%, but it can be adjusted based on the expected workload characteristics and data services requirements. The other options are not correct, as they do not describe the Operations Reserve option. Configuring space for external operations, reserving space for tolerating failures, and allocating space for vSAN upgrades are not part of the Operations Reserve option.

An administrator is tasked to create a Kerberos secured NFS v4.1 file share.
Which information is minimally required during the configuration of the File Service?
- A. Active Directory Domain, User Account, Password
- B. Active Directory Domain. Organizational Unit, User Account. Password
- C. Kerberos Server, User Account, Password
- D. Organizational Unit, User Account, Password
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
To create a Kerberos secured NFS v4.1 file share, the administrator needs to provide the following information during the configuration of the File Service:
Active Directory Domain: The domain name of the Active Directory server that provides Kerberos authentication service for the NFS server and clients. For example, example.com.
User Account: The user name of the Active Directory account that has permissions to join the NFS server to the domain and create service principal names (SPNs) for the NFS server. For example, [email protected].
Password: The password of the Active Directory account that is used for authentication. For example, P@ssw0rd.
These information are required to enable Kerberos security for NFS 4.1 and allow the NFS server to obtain a Kerberos ticket from the Active Directory server. The administrator also needs to specify the NFS share name, path, and access permissions1 References: 1: VMware vSphere Storage Guide, page 118
NEW QUESTION # 61
A customer has deployed a new vSAN cluster with the following configuration:
5 x vSAN ReadyNodes
All Flash
12 TB Raw Storage
vSAN 8 is deployed with ESA.
New VMs are configured with a RAID-5 VM policy.
Which statement is accurate?
- A. vSAN will use a 2+1 RAID-5 data placement scheme with parity will be used
- B. vSAN will spread the components across all of the disk groups
- C. vSAN will use a 4+1 RAID-5 data placement scheme with parity will be used
- D. RAID 5 will provide an FTT=2 level of protection in this case
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
vSAN will use a 4+1 RAID-5 data placement scheme with parity will be used is the correct answer because vSAN 8 ESA uses adaptive RAID-5 erasure coding that depends on the number of hosts in the cluster. If the cluster has 6 or more hosts, vSAN will use a 4+1 RAID-5 scheme, where the data is written as a stripe of 4 data bits and 1 parity bit across 5 hosts. This provides a failure tolerance of 1 (FTT=1) and a space efficiency of 1.25x. If the cluster has less than 6 hosts (3 to 5), vSAN will use a 2+1 RAID-5 scheme, where the data is written as a stripe of 2 data bits and 1 parity bit across 3 hosts. This also provides a failure tolerance of 1 (FTT=1) but a space efficiency of 1.5x. In this case, the cluster has 5 hosts, so vSAN will use the 4+1 RAID-5 scheme.
The other options are incorrect for the following reasons:
A, vSAN will use a 2+1 RAID-5 data placement scheme with parity will be used, is incorrect because vSAN will only use this scheme if the cluster has less than 6 hosts but more than 2 hosts. In this case, the cluster has 5 hosts, so vSAN will use the 4+1 RAID-5 scheme.
B, RAID 5 will provide an FTT=2 level of protection in this case, is incorrect because RAID 5 can only provide an FTT=1 level of protection, regardless of the number of hosts or the data placement scheme.
To achieve an FTT=2 level of protection, vSAN would need to use RAID 6 erasure coding, which requires at least 6 hosts in the cluster.
D, vSAN will spread the components across all of the disk groups, is incorrect because vSAN will not necessarily spread the components across all of the disk groups in the cluster. vSAN will only spread the components across as many disk groups as needed to meet the storage policy requirements and to balance the load and capacity. In this case, vSAN will only need to spread the components across 5 disk groups for each stripe of RAID-5 data. References:

If two hosts in a four-node vSAN cluster are down, the cluster might experience data loss because the default storage policy has a Primary level of failures to tolerate (PFTT) of 1, which means that vSAN can tolerate only one host failure. The Ensure accessibility maintenance mode option does not guarantee full data redundancy, but only ensures that all accessible VMs remain accessible. If another host fails while one host is in maintenance mode, some VMs might lose access to their data components and become unavailable or corrupted.

NEW QUESTION # 63
A vSAN administrator needs to update vSAN from version 7.0.2 to version 8.0.
Which is the correct order to perform the update?
- A. vSphere -> vCenter -> vSAN on-disk format
- B. vCenter -> vSphere -> vSAN on-disk format
- C. vSphere -> vSAN on-disk format -> vCenter
- D. vSAN on-disk format -> vSphere -> vCenter
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
The correct order to perform the update from vSAN version 7.0.2 to version 8.0 is to upgrade the vCenter Server first, then upgrade the ESXi hosts, and finally upgrade the vSAN on-disk format. This order follows the general vSphere upgrade order, which ensures compatibility and interoperability between different components. Upgrading the vCenter Server first allows it to manage and monitor the ESXi hosts and the vSAN cluster during the upgrade process. Upgrading the ESXi hosts second ensures that they have the latest software patches and drivers for vSAN. Upgrading the vSAN on-disk format last enables the new features and functionality of vSAN 8.0. The other options are not correct, as they do not follow the recommended upgrade order.
NEW QUESTION # 64
vSAN requires that the virtual machines deployed on the vSAN datastores are assigned at least one storage policy, but the administrator did not explicitly assign a storage policy when provisioning the new VM.
What is the result of this situation?
- A. The VM objects will be protected based on the vSAN Default Storage Policy configurations.
- B. The vSphere Web Client will choose the last vSAN Storage Policy used.
- C. No data protection will be applied to the VM objects.
- D. The VM provisioning will fail.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
If the administrator did not explicitly assign a storage policy when provisioning a new VM on a vSAN datastore, the result is that the VM objects will be protected based on the vSAN Default Storage Policy configurations. The vSAN Default Storage Policy is assigned to all VM objects if no other vSAN policy is assigned when provisioning a VM. The default policy contains vSAN rule sets and a set of basic storage capabilities, such as Failures to tolerate set to 1, Number of disk stripes per object set to 1, and Thin provisioning. The other options are not correct. The VM provisioning will not fail, as vSAN requires that every VM has at least one storage policy. The vSphere Web Client will not choose the last vSAN Storage Policy used, as it will always apply the default policy if no other policy is selected. No data protection will not be applied to the VM objects, as they will have at least one replica based on the default policy.

NEW QUESTION # 65
A vSAN administrator needs to enable vSAN ESA.
Which two requirements need to be met? (Choose two.)
- A. vSAN Build Your Own configuration
- B. vSAN ReadyNodes configuration
- C. vSAN Standard license
- D. vSAN Advanced license
- E. vSAN Witness Appliance
Answer: B,C
Explanation:
Explanation
To enable vSAN ESA, two requirements that need to be met are: vSAN Standard license or higher, and vSAN ReadyNodes configuration. vSAN Standard license or higher is required to use vSAN ESA, as it is a feature that is only available in vSAN 8.0 or later versions. vSAN ESA is an optional, alternative architecture to vSAN OSA that is designed to process and store data with higher efficiency, scalability, and performance.
vSAN ReadyNodes configuration is required to use vSAN ESA, as it is a hardware configuration that is pre-configured, tested, and certified for VMware Hyper-Converged Infrastructure Software. Each vSAN ReadyNode is optimally configured for vSAN ESA with the required amount of CPU, memory, network, and storage NVMe devices. The other options are not correct. vSAN Build Your Own configuration is not supported for vSAN ESA, as it might not meet the hardware requirements or compatibility for vSAN ESA.
vSAN Witness Appliance is not required to use vSAN ESA, as it is only needed for stretched cluster or two-node cluster configurations. References: vSAN Express Storage Architecture; vSAN ReadyNode Hardware Guidance
NEW QUESTION # 66
How often does the Skyline Health interval validate online if there are new Health Checks available for vSAN?
- A. Every 12 hours
- B. Every 24 hours
- C. Every 4 hours
- D. Every 1 hour
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
The Skyline Health interval validates online if there are new Health Checks available for vSAN every 24 hours. This means that vSAN checks for new health checks from VMware Analytics Cloud once a day and updates the vSAN Health Service accordingly. The other options are not correct, as they do not match the actual frequency of the online validation. References: About the vSAN Skyline Health
