An architect is designing a solution based on the following information: Each ESXi host has a single physical NIC with two 10 Gbps ports. There is a performance-based service-level agreement (SLA) that guarantees 15 Gbps bandwidth for production virtual machines at all times. There is no budget to purchase additional hardware. The hardware replacement SLA is based on a delivery agreement of two business days. Which recommendation for the configuration of vSphere High Availability (HA) should the architect i

An architect is preparing a design for a company planning digital transformation. During the requirements gathering workshop, the following requirements (REQ) and constraints (CON) are identified: REQ01 The platform must host different types of workloads including applications that must be compliant with internal security standard. REQ02 The infrastructure must initially run 100 virtual machines. REQ03 Ten of the virtual machines must be compliant with internal security standard. CON01 The customer has alre

As part of a requirements gathering workshop, the customer provides the following requirements for the design of a new greenfield virtual infrastructure: Some applications have a latency that must be less than 5 minutes. The solution must be able to support a workload growth rate of 10% per year. Which requirement classification is being gathered for the design documentation?

Which of the listed requirements would be classified as a recoverability non-functional requirement?

Following a recent acquisition, an architect needs to merge IT assets into its current data center. The combined vSphere environment will need to run the newly acquired company’s virtual machines. Network integration work has already been completed and the current environment has capacity to host all virtual machines. The Operations team needs to identify which virtual machines belong to the acquired company and report on their usage. How should the architect merge the company’s assets and virtual machines?

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?

An architect is tasked with recommending a solution for a company that is running out of VLANs. Currently the company is running two separate data centers based on vSphere including an Enterprise Plus license. In the first data center, the problem was solved by using VMware NSX and overlay network. In the second data center, there is currently no VMware NSX implementation in place and no budget for additional licenses. What should the architect recommend as a potential solution to provide support for additi
