This certification validates practical skills in system administration and infrastructure, including deployment, administration, troubleshooting, and resilience. It is intended for professionals operating dependable enterprise technology environments.
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?
A company hosts a vSAN 7 stretched cluster for all development workloads. The original sizing of a maximum of 250 concurrent workloads in the vSAN cluster is no longer sufficient and needs to increase to at least 500 concurrent workloads within the next six months.
To meet this demand, the original 8-node (4-4-1) cluster has recently been expanded to 16 nodes (8-8-1).
Which three additional steps should the administrator take to support the current growth plans while minimizing the amount of resources required at the witness site? (Choose three.)
Upon investigating a workload performance issue, a vSAN administrator observed a high backend IOPs on a vSAN cluster.
Which two causes explain this behavior? (Choose two.)
An administrator wants to check the performance metrics for the workloads and their virtual disks that are running on a vSAN cluster, but no statistical charts are displayed in the vSphere client.
Why is this behavior being seen?
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.)
