Questions 4

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.)

Options:

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.

Questions 7

A company has deployed a 12-node (6-6-1) vSAN 7.0 stretched cluster for all production workloads.

The customer currently uses four different vSAN storage policies for running the workloads depending on the applications requirements:

* Policy 1 - Site Disaster Tolerance=Dual Site Mirroring, FTT=Erasure Coding

* Policy 2 - Site Disaster Tolerance=Dual Site Mirroring, FTT=Mirroring

* Policy 3 - Site Disaster Tolerance=None - Keep Data on Preferred, FTT=Mirroring

* Policy 4 - Site Disaster Tolerance=None - Keep Data on Non-Preferred, FTT=Mirroring

During the setup of the vSAN stretched cluster, the following VM/Host Rules were created:

* Preferred Site - Preferred Site workloads should run on DC1 hosts.

* Secondary Site - Secondary Site workloads should run on DC2 hosts.

Which two activities should the administrator complete to ensure that there is no impact to production services during the maintenance window in the Preferred Site? (Choose two.)

Options:

A.

Change the Site Disaster Tolerance setting in Policy 3 to be “Dual Site Mirroring”.

B.

Update vSphere DRS site affinity rules so that Preferred Site workloads should not run on hosts in DC1.

C.

Change the Site Disaster Tolerance setting in Policy 4 to be “None - Keep Data on Preferred”.

D.

Change the FTT setting in Policy 3 to be “Erasure Coding”.

E.

Update vSphere DRS site affinity rules so that Preferred Site workloads must run on hosts in DC2.

• LUN sizes range between 10 TB to 30 TB.

What should the architect state regarding the requirements?

Options:

A.

All requirements can be satisfied without any change.

B.

Only single connection per session is supported.

C.

The number of LUNs require additional licensing.

D.

It is a best practice to maintain a LUN size of 8 TB.

Questions 9

A 30-minute power maintenance window has been approved on Sunday. Due to a delay, the maintenance took 20 minutes longer to finish.

During this time, the vSAN administrator noticed that one of the clusters nodes was affected by a power shortage, as it was connected to an affected power source. The default vSAN storage policy has been applied.

What will be the status of the vSAN objects on the affected host immediately after it is recovered?

Options:

A.

The cluster will be partitioned and the vSAN host will need to be rejoined.

B.

A rebuild of the affected objects will occur.

C.

All objects will remain accessible.

D.

All objects on the affected host will be lost.

Questions 10

As a part of a network hardware refresh project, all the network switches have been replaced with a newer, high-performance model. After the replacement, the company users started experiencing slowness on the applications hosted on their vSAN-backed VMs.

The vSAN administrator checked the vSAN Network Health status and noticed that the "Hosts large ping test" has failed.

What could be the cause of this performance degradation issue?

Options:

A.

MTU 9K is not configured on the hosts vSAN vMKernel ports.

B.

MTU 9K is not configured on the hosts VMnic ports.

C.

MTU 9K is not configured on the ToR switch.

D.

MTU 9K is not configured on the vDS switch.
