VMware 5V0-21.21 - VMware HCI Master Specialist
A customer is planning to deploy a vSAN cluster to host their in-house distributed ERP system. The hardware specifications for their server nodes include:
* 2 x Intel Xeon CPU E5-2697 v3 @ 2.60GHz
* 1TB memory
Which boot device is supported for the vSAN ESXi nodes for this customer?
During a maintenance action on a vSAN node, a vSAN administrator noticed that the default repair delay time is about to be reached.
Which two commands must be run to extend the time? (Choose two.)
An organization has two vSAN clusters managed by the same vCenter Server, each providing 100TB of storage. The first cluster runs at 75% of its storage capacity, and the second cluster runs at 50% of its storage capacity.
The company also has the following:
* An iSCSI array of 300TB. which runs at 76% of its capacity
* A NAS system of 200TB, which runs at 10% of its capacity
* A Fiber channel (FC) array of 300TB, which runs at 80% of its capacity
The administrator is asked to add an additional 25TB of storage to the first cluster. The administrator is also made aware that there is no budget to purchase new hardware and that the vSAN Storage Policy Based Management must be kept in place.
Which storage option will work for this use case?
An administrator is planning to deploy cloud-native workloads onto the vSAN Direct datastore.
Which storage policy structure rule is supported?
An architect needs to automate an infrastructure that supports VMware Horizon as well as VMware Tanzu.
Which solution mandates the use of VMware vSAN?
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?
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?
During a vSAN design workshop, a customer expressed a requirement to decommission an existing enterprise NAS device that provides iSCSI services for a clustered application.
Based on the current state analysis, the following information was noted:
• Current utilization is 500 LUNs.
• All clustered workloads are configured for Multiple Connections per Session.
• LUN sizes range between 10 TB to 30 TB.
What should the architect state regarding the requirements?
A company has engaged a consultant to upgrade an existing vSAN cluster to vSAN 7.0 U1. The company wants to ensure that the same vSAN process can be used in the future.
During the discovery phase, the consultant found the following information about the existing environment:
* The vCenter Server is currently version 7.0.
* The vSAN Cluster has the following configuration:
- vSAN version: 7.0
- Number of vSAN nodes: 6
- Encryption: enabled
- Deduplication and Compression: enabled
- Fault Domains: 1
- vSAN Capacity Utilization: 60%
* Each vSAN node has the following configuration:
- ESXi version: VMware vSphere 7.0
- CPU: 2 processors, 20 cores
- RAM: 1024GB RAM.
- Disk: 2 Cache SSDs and 6 Capacity SSDs
- Network: 4 x 10GbE
* All current hardware (which is from a single vendor) is listed on the vSAN Compatibility Guide for vSAN 7.
Which three recommendations should the consultant make to ensure that the vSAN cluster upgrade is completed? (Choose three.)
