Customer Requirements:

You have been tasked with creating a vSphere 6.x data center design for an organization. The organization has provided a number of Business Continuity and

Disaster Recovery (BC/DR) requirements to meet their established Service Level Agreements (SLAs). The preliminary design will include two sites.

Production Site:

• 6 ESXi hosts in two clusters
• A Fiber Channel storage array with three types of storage:

1. Flash storage
2. 15K SAS drives with vFlash Read Cache
3. SATA drives in RAID 5 configuration

Secondary Site:

• 3 ESXi hosts in a single cluster
• A Fiber Channel storage array of the same type and with the same configuration as that of the production site

The details of the organizations SLAs include:

• Gold: Maximize read/write storage performance and provide automated offsite recovery with an RPO < 15 minutes.
• Silver: Maximize read performance and provide automated offsite recovery with an RPO from 15 minutes to 24 hours.
• Bronze: No performance requirement. Onsite recovery with no specific RPO.

The organization has a number of web-based multi-tier applications that are governed by their SLAs. The workloads in these applications and their SLA assignments include:

• Database workloads Gold
• Application workloads Silver
• Web workloads Bronze

Note that Web servers only contain static information that is site specific.

Design Requirements:

Create a design that incorporates the required elements:

• Place an SLA container for each of the appropriate SLAs into the appropriate sites.
• Place the appropriate storage type(s) for each SLA into the SLA container.
• Place the appropriate workload(s) into the SLA containers.
• Place the appropriate BCDR components into the SLA containers.
• Connect any replicated storage between the two sites using the appropriate replication connector.

DRAG DROP -

You have been tasked with creating a vSphere 6.x design for an organization. The organization is looking to implement a Virtual SAN into their environment. You have been tasked with determining whether a given Virtual SAN logical design decision meets the technical requirements of their infrastructure.

For each Design Decision on the left drag the red Decision buttons (D1-D8) on the right and place it on the proper Technical Requirement.

NOTE: Not all Design Decisions will be used.

DRAG DROP -

You have been tasked with creating a vSphere 6.x data center design for an organization. After interviewing key stakeholders and subject matter experts for a new implementation, it was determined that:

1. Existing network infrastructure should be sufficient.
2. HIPPA compliance must be maintained.
3. Mission critical applications must be recoverable.
4. Provide training to staff to ensure they can support the implementation.
5. IT department capital investment has been agreed upon and approval is nearly complete.

For each statement, you must determine if the statement should be categorized as an assumption, constraint, requirement or risk.

Match each Business Statement by dragging the red Statement buttons (S1-S5) over the text of the appropriate Categorization.

NOTE: Statements can have more than one Categorization.

DRAG DROP -

You have been tasked with creating a vSphere 6.x data center design for an organization. The organization is evaluating various design options and their impact on the design. For each design option, determine the design characteristic that would be affected by utilizing the option.

Match each Design Option on the left to the Characteristic on the right by dragging the red button (O1-O5) over the text of the appropriate Characteristic.

NOTE: Design Options can be mapped to more than one Characteristic or none at all.
