Question 3

An architect is considering placement of virtual machines within an existing VMware software-defined data center (SDDC).
During the discovery phase, the following information is documented:
Cluster One
Six ESXi hosts
vSphere HA with host failures cluster tolerates = 1
Proactive HA is enabled and set to automated
Fully Automated vSphere DRS
Transparent Page Sharing (TPS) is enabled
Cluster Two
Eight ESXi hosts
vSphere HA with host failures cluster tolerates = 1
Proactive HA is disabled
Partially Automated vSphere DRS
Transparent Page Sharing (TPS) is disabled
Cluster Three
Three ESXi hosts
vSphere HA with admission control is disabled
Proactive HA is not supported
Transparent Page Sharing (TPS) is disabled
Virtual Machine Resource Profile 1
Memory sharing techniques should not be used
Virtual machines should be automatically restarted in the event of host failure if resources are available Automated initial virtual machine placement Virtual Machine Resource Profile 2 Memory sharing techniques should not be used Virtual machines should be automatically restarted in the event of host failure regardless of available resources Automated initial virtual machine placement Which two recommendations should the architect make for placement of the virtual machines to meet resource profile requirements? (Choose two.)

A. All virtual machines matching Virtual Machine Resource Profile 2 should be placed on Cluster One.

B. All virtual machines matching Virtual Machine Resource Profile 2 should be placed on Cluster Two.

C. All virtual machines matching Virtual Machine Resource Profile 2 should be placed on Cluster Three.

D. All virtual machines matching Virtual Machine Resource Profile 1 should be placed on Cluster Two.

E. All virtual machines matching Virtual Machine Resource Profile 1 should be placed on Cluster One.

Question 4

An architect is designing a solution for an environment with two types of resource profiles that must be virtualized. The first type consists of Tier 1 virtual machines that are disk I/O intensive, but do NOT require high CPU or memory. The second type consists of Tier 2 virtual machines that require a lower CPU and memory allocation and have minimal disk I/O.
Which design recommendation should the architect make for distributing the resource profiles?

A. Run both resource profiles on the same cluster with host hardware that has fast CPU, large amounts of memory, and the fastest storage platform.

B. Run both resource profiles on the same cluster with the same host hardware platform.

C. Separate the two resource profiles into two clusters. The Tier 1 cluster will have fast storage while the Tier 2 cluster will not.

D. Separate the two resource profiles into two clusters. The Tier 2 cluster will have faster CPU and more memory while the Tier 1 cluster will have slower CPU and less memory but more disk space.

Question 5

An architect is reviewing a physical storage design. The customer has specified that storage DRS will be used for ease of operational management for capacity and performance.
Which recommendation should the architect include in the design?

A. Create more datastores within each Storage DRS cluster to balance space and performance

B. Use a larger number of storage profiles (varied disk speeds and RAID levels) to improve performance

C. Create larger datastores to balance space with Storage DRS

D. Create smaller datastores to balance space with Storage DRS

Question 6

An architect is designing a new backup solution for a vSphere platform that has been recently upgraded to vSphere 7.
The architect wants the backup solution to perform the following:
Full virtual machine image backup and restore
Incremental virtual machine image backup and restore
File level backup and restore within both Windows and Linux virtual machines LAN-free backup Which functional requirement should the architect include in the design of the new backup solution?

A. The backup solution must leverage virtual machine snapshots.

B. The backup solution must leverage VMware vSphere Storage APIs - Data Protection.

C. The backup solution must leverage VMware vStorage APIs for Data Protection (VADP).

D. The backup solution must leverage the VMware Consolidated Backup (VCB) framework.

Question 7

An architect is designing a VMware solution for a customer based on the following information:
The solution must use investments in existing storage array that supports both block and file storage.
The solution must support the ability to migrate workloads between hosts within a cluster.
The solution must support resource management priorities.
The solution must support the ability to connect virtual machines directly to LUNs.
The solution should use existing IPv4 based network infrastructure.
There is no budget for additional physical hardware.
Which two design decisions could the architect make to meet these requirements? (Choose two.)

A. The ESXi hosts will leverage NFS 4.1

B. The ESXi hosts will leverage NFS 3

C. The ESXi hosts will leverage Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE)

D. The ESXi hosts will leverage Fibre Channel (FC)

E. The ESXi hosts will leverage iSCSI

Correct Answer: C,E

Question 8

An architect is designing a new greenfield environment with 600 ESXi hosts in an automated fashion. The engineering department already has a PXE Boot server, TFTP server, and DHCP server set up with an NFS mount for their current Linux servers.
The architect must be able to demonstrate and meet a security requirement to have all infrastructure processes separated.
Which recommendation should the architect make for the ESXi host deployment?

A. Request an isolated network segment to use and dedicate it to Auto Deploy functions

B. Request a common shared network with flexible security measures to accommodate different auto deployment options

C. Deploy each ESXi host individually and document it to satisfy security requirements

D. Ask the business to expand the engineering environment to service the virtual environment as well

Question 9

Application owners require support of a Microsoft Windows Server Failover Cluster (WSFC).
Their current environment consists of the following components:
vSphere 7.0 and vSAN 7.0
External array supporting NFS 3.0/4.1, Server Message Block (SMB) 2.1
10 GbE storage connectivity for all devices
The solution architect is tasked with coming up with a solution to meet this requirement while utilizing their existing investments.
Which two recommendations could the architect make? (Choose two.)

A. Use the SMB 2.1 protocol for sharing disks

B. Use vSAN native support for WSFC

C. Use NFS 4.1 shares for quorum and shared disk

D. Run WSFC on vSAN iSCSI Target Service
