The Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) for an organization is concerned about the security posture of the operating system images that are used for the provisioning of their Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications. The organization is in a growth period. The organization is opening a new data center to launch its next phase of new SaaS-based solutions.
The DevOps team currently creates encrypted virtual machine (VM) templates that are used for various operating systems and adds these to the vSphere inventory. The DevOps team already uses a published content library and has been granted a role with the ability to add and delete library items.
The following requirements have been noted:
Impacts to the DevOps team’s operational processes must be kept to a minimum.
The DevOps team must be able to regularly check out a copy of the image for updates and check in a new version of the image.
Images must be synchronized from the primary data center to the new data center.
Which three recommendations should the architect make to design a content library solution that will meet these requirements? (Choose three.)
Correct Answer:BEF
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 already purchased the licenses as part of another project.
CON02 The customer has five physical servers that must be reused.
Additionally, based on resource requirements, four physical servers will be enough to run all workloads. Which recommendation should the architect make to meet requirements while minimizing project costs?
Correct Answer:C
A customer defines a requirement to minimize the vMotion migration time during a maintenance period. The servers being used are equipped with eight 1 GbE network adapters.
Per the defined logical network configuration, there are two network adapters each used for:
Management traffic
vMotion traffic
iSCSI traffic
Virtual machine traffic
Which design decision should the architect make to meet the customer requirement?
Correct Answer:A
An architect is tasked with designing a new VMware software-defined data center (SDDC) using VMware vSAN. The architect uses a storage assessment tool to determine the storage requirements for the new vSAN cluster. The new SDDC is going to be deployed into the existing data center and must be connected to a shared core network switch.
The architect decides to use vSAN ReadyNodes with the following configuration:
Two disk groups with:
Write Intensive NVMe 800 GB drive for cache
Four 3.84 TB Mixed Use NVMe for capacity
Four 10 GbE ports
Which element represents a risk that should be included in this design?
Correct Answer:C
An architect is tasked with designing a greenfield VMware software-defined data center (SDDC) solution that will be used to deliver a private cloud service for a customer.
During the initial meeting with the service owner and business sponsor, the customer has provided the following information to help inform the design:
The solution must support the concurrent running of 1,000 virtual machines
The production environment must be delivered across two geographically dispersed data centers All virtual machines must be capable of running in either data center.
The two data centers are currently connected to each other through a single but diversely routed, high bandwidth and low latency link.
The link between the two data centers is capable of supporting a round-trip time (RTT) of 150 ms The existing server hardware standard document states that all virtual infrastructure hosts must be deployed using vSAN ReadyNodes
The service owner has stated that it is critical to ensure the availability target of 99.9% All virtual machine backups must be completed using the existing backup service
The recovery time objective (RTO) for the service is five minutes
The recovery point objective (RPO) of the service is four hours
Which two elements represent risks to the successful delivery of this solution? (Choose two.)
Correct Answer:DE
