An administrator is preparing for a deployment of a new vCenter Server Appliance. The following information has been provided to complete the deployment:
Which two actions must the administrator complete before starting the installation of the vCenter Server Appliance? (Choose two.)
A.
Create a DNS CNAME record for the vCenter Server (vcsaOl corp.local)
B.
Create a DNS CNAME record for the ESXi Host server (esx01 corp.local).
C.
Create a reverse DNS A record for the vCenter Server (vcsaOl).
D.
Create a reverse DNS A record for the ESXi Host server (esx01 )
E.
Create a forward DNS A record for the vCenter Server (vcsaOl ).
Create a reverse DNS A record for the vCenter Server (vcsaOl).
Create a forward DNS A record for the vCenter Server (vcsaOl ).
Explanation:
The administrator must create a forward DNS A record for the vCenter Server (vcsa01), which maps the FQDN of the vCenter Server to its IP address. The administrator must also create a reverse DNS A record for the ESXi Host server (esx01), which maps the IP address of the ESXi Host to its FQDN. These DNS records are required for name resolution and certificate validation during the deployment of the vCenter Server Appliance. References:
https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/7.0/com.vmware.vcenter.install.doc/GUID-88571D8A-46E1-464
https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/8.0/vsphere-vcenter-upgrade/GUID-752FCA83-1A9B-499E-9C6
If you plan to use an FQDN for the appliance system name, you must verify that the FQDN is resolvable by a DNS server, by adding forward and reverse DNS A records.
An administrator has configured Storage I/O Control (SIOC) on a Virtual Machine File System (VMFS) datastore.
The datastore supports 30,000 IOPS
Storage I/O Control has been set to manual
Storage I/O Control is triggered when latency hits 30 ms
The datastore contains 3 virtual machines (VMs)
A gold tier VM
A silver tier VM
A bronze tier VM
Assuming the datastore latency does not exceed 29ms, what is the maximum number of IOPS the bronze tier VM is entitled to?
A.
30,000
B.
20,000
C.
10.000
D.
5,000
30,000
The bronze tier VM is entitled to 30,000 IOPS, which is the maximum number of IOPS that the datastore supports. Storage I/O Control (SIOC) does not limit the IOPS of any VM unless the datastore latency exceeds the threshold, which is 30 ms in this case. Therefore, as long as the datastore latency is below 29 ms, the bronze tier VM can use up to 30,000 IOPS.
An administrator plans to update the Supervisor cluster and has noticed some of the Tanzu Kubemetes Grid clusters are running an incompatible version.
Which action must the administrator take before proceeding with the Supervisor cluster update?
A.
Update all Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters to the latest version prior to the Supervisor cluster update.
B.
No action is needed - Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters will be updated automatically as part of the update process.
C.
No action is needed - Incompatible Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters can be manually updated after the Supervisor cluster update.
D.
Update incompatible Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters prior to the Supervisor cluster update.
Update incompatible Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters prior to the Supervisor cluster update.
Option D is correct because it indicates that the administrator must update incompatible Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters prior to the Supervisor cluster update, as this will ensure that there are no compatibility issues or disruptions during or after the update process. Option A is incorrect because it is not necessary to update all Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters to the latest version prior to the Supervisor cluster update, as some clusters may already be compatible with the new version. Option B is incorrect because Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters will not be updated automatically as part of the update process, as they require manual intervention from the administrator. Option C is incorrect because incompatible Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters cannot be manually updated after the Supervisor cluster update, as they may become inaccessible or unstable due to compatibility issues.

https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/8.0/vsphere-with-tanzu-maintenance/GUID-292482C2-A5FA-44 If a Tanzu Kubernetes Grid cluster is incompatible with vSphere 8, upgrade the cluster before proceeding with the system upgrade.
An administrator is tasked with looking into the disaster recovery options for protecting a database server using VMware vSphere Replication.
The following requirements must be met:
• The virtual machine must remain online during the protection.
• The virtual machine's snapshots must be used as part of the replication process.
Which step must the administrator complete to accomplish this task?
A.
Configure the virtual machine storage policy.
B.
Enable guest OS VSS quiescing for this virtual machine.
C.
Perform a full initial synchronization of the source virtual machine to the target location
D.
Configure network traffic isolation for vSphere Replication

C.
NSX-T Manager
D.
vSphere Host Client
E.

Which three features are only available when using vSphere Distributed Switches instead of vSphere Standard Switches? (Choose three.)
A.

B.
Port mirroring
C.
Netflow
D.
Configuration backup and restore
E.

Three features that are only available when using vSphere Distributed Switches instead of vSphere Standard Switches are port mirroring, which allows monitoring network traffic on a virtual switch port; Netflow, which allows collecting IP traffic information from a virtual switch; and configuration backup and restore, which allows saving and restoring distributed switch settings.

An administrator is tasked with allowing a single user the ability to take snapshots on a virtual machine. When looking in vCenter, the administrator can see that there are already users and groups assigned permissions on the virtual machine as follows:
The group VMJJsers has the Virtual Machine Power User role.
The group VM_Viewers has the Read Only role.
The administrator confirms that the user requesting the additional access is currently one of five members of the VM_Viewers group. Which two steps should the administrator take to grant this user the additional access required without impacting the user access of others? (Choose two.)
A.
Add the user to the VM_Users group and leave the permissions on the virtual machine object unchanged
B.
Add a new permission on the virtual machine object selecting the user and the new custom role.
C.
Edit the Read Only role to add the Virtual Machine Snapshot Management privileges.
D.
Create a new custom role with the Virtual Machine Snapshot Management privileges.
E.
new permission on the virtual machine object selecting the VM_Viewers group and the new custom
Add a new permission on the virtual machine object selecting the user and the new custom role.
Create a new custom role with the Virtual Machine Snapshot Management privileges.
The administrator should create a new custom role with the Virtual Machine Snapshot Management privileges, which allows the user to create, delete and revert snapshots. The administrator should then add a new permission on the virtual machine object selecting the user and the new custom role, which grants the user the additional access required without affecting other users or groups.

Which two datastore types store the components of a virtual machine as a set of objects? (Choose two.)
A.
VMware Virtual Machine File System (VMFS)
B.
VMware vSAN
C.
Network File System (NFS) 3
D.
vSphere Virtual Volumes (vVols)
E.
Network File System (NFS) 4.1
VMware vSAN
vSphere Virtual Volumes (vVols)
Option B and D are correct because they are the datastore types that store the components of a virtual machine as a set of objects, which are logical containers that abstract physical storage resources. Option A, C and E are incorrect because they are the datastore types that store the components of a virtual machine as a set of files, which are stored on a file system that resides on a physical storage device.
