An 8-Node vSAN Stretched Cluster (4+4+1) with a single disk group has a policy with PFTT=1 (mirrored across sites) and SFTT=1/FTM Mirroring (Local Protection) configured.

The administrator has been alerted that there is a problem with the cluster. The following has been observed:

* The vSAN Witness Host is offline.

* Two disk failures on two hosts have occurred in the preferred site.

This has resulted in a critical production virtual machine’s vmdk becoming inaccessible.

Which step needs to be performed by the administrator to resolve the issue?

An architect is tasked to design a VMware Horizon Solution with vSAN. The architect needs to use a solution to host the user’s profile shares in a highly available manner, and it must be guest OS independent.

Which solution will match these requirements?

An architect is reviewing a vSAN cluster that has an unbalanced cluster configuration.

Which behavior will the architect observe?

An architect is currently working with a customer to transform their existing ESXi hosts to vSAN nodes. The customer expressed the following requirements.

• First phase will transform 50% of the hosts to a hybrid vSAN nodes.

• Second phase will transform the remaining 50% hosts to an All-Flash vSAN nodes.

The following constraint exists:

• Each host has a 4-port x 1 GbE network interface.

Which two recommendations should the architect make to align with the customer's requirements? (Choose two.)

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?

Which flash disk size is required for the cache tier per ESXi node to meet all requirements?

An administrator is troubleshooting vSAN performance issues, and the performance diagnostics reports:

"There are errors seen in one or more physical NICs on one or more hosts."

Which two problems must be resolved to fix this issue? (Choose two.)

An administrator is tasked with setting up Kerberos authentication only for the vSAN File services.

Which version of Kerberos must be selected if the NFS version is v4.1?

An administrator wants to enable encryption on an existing vSAN cluster that already contains virtual machines.

Which additional step should the administrator take to ensure no data is lost during the encryption process?
