An architect makes the design decision to install ESXi on embedded and resilient 8 GB SD cards. What is the impact of this design decision?

An architect is responsible for extending the hosting design for a customer. The customer has a mission-critical 3-node application which is load balanced in an active/active/passive configuration. The application administrator requests that the virtual infrastructure team be responsible for maintaining platform level availability. An organizational policy exists to mandate the highest possible availability for mission-critical applications. Based on the resource requirements, the architect has made the fol

An architect is tasked with designing the vSphere cluster layout for a customer. The customer is NOT sure how many clusters are required or the number of hosts to use in any of the clusters. The customer has provided the following requirements: - The placement of Linux and Windows machines (end user virtual machines) needs to be controlled for license compliance. - Access to virtual machines such as Active Directory and DHCP (infrastructure virtual machines) should be restricted to just the platform adminis

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 ?

An architect is working on a new VMware vSphere design and notes the following information during interviews with stakeholders: The company has previously worked with multiple VMware partners The company has an internal security policy that is referenced in long running contracts The company has an Enterprise License Agreement (ELA) with VMware The company has a multi-year cloud subscription agreement Which of these is a business factor that will impact this design?

An architect is documenting the design decisions for a new vSphere solution. The following design decision has been made: Create a separate vSphere cluster for the management workloads What could the architect include as justification for this design decision?

An architect is designing a new vSphere environment to meet the following requirements: - REQ01 The platform must provide a minimum of N+1 redundancy. - REQ02 The recovery point objective (RPO) for all virtual machines within the environment is one hour. - REQ03 The production environment must be deployed into the primary data center. - REQ04 The design must adhere to the company security standards, which include Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard compliance. - REQ05 The platform must be cap

An architect is designing the expansion of an existing vSphere 7 environment. The customer is requesting a design for a new cluster to support the anticipated future business growth. The requirements specified for the existing environment design must be considered when designing the new cluster. The existing design has the following requirements: ? REQ01 The environment has an availability target of 99.5% for all infrastructure. ? REQ02 The recovery time objective (RTO) for Tier 1 virtual machines is one ho
