Question 1 of 65

An environment is running a VMware Cloud on AWS software-defined data center (SDDC) with six i3.metal hosts. Storage space usage has increased and the administrator is required to add storage capacity. Which two approaches can the administrator take to add storage capacity? (Choose two.)

Deploy Amazon Elastic File System (EFS) file shares from the AWS console and attach them to the i3.metal hosts. Use VMware Storage vMotion to migrate the storage-bound virtual machines to the Amazon EFS data stores.

Deploy Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS) storage volumes (GP2) from the AWS console and attach them to the i3.metal hosts. Allow VMware vSAN extend the storage capacity automatically.

Deploy an additional cluster based on i3en.metal hosts and migrate the storage-bound virtual machines to the i3en.metal hosts.

Add additional i3.metal hosts to increase the total vSAN storage space.

Add additional i3en.metal hosts and migrate the storage-bound virtual machines to the i3en.metal hosts.

Correct Answer: C, D

To add storage capacity in a VMware Cloud on AWS environment with i3.metal hosts, the administrator can take the following two approaches: 1) Deploy an additional cluster based on i3en.metal hosts and migrate the storage-bound virtual machines to the i3en.metal hosts, and 2) Add additional i3.metal hosts to increase the total vSAN storage space. These approaches effectively expand the storage capacity by either increasing the number of hosts in the existing setup or by incorporating more advanced hosts with larger storage capabilities, ensuring the virtual machines have sufficient storage resources.

Question 2 of 65

Which API endpoint serves as the authentication point for VMware Cloud on AWS?

Cloud Services Platform API

NSX-T Data Center API

Deployed SDDC API

VMware Cloud on AWS API

Correct Answer: A

The Cloud Services Platform (CSP) API serves as the authentication point for VMware Cloud on AWS. This API is used for managing authentication tokens that are necessary to access VMware services. Once authenticated via the CSP API, the token can be used for further interactions with VMware Cloud on AWS services.

Question 3 of 65

An environment is running a cluster with six i3.metal hosts in the VMware Cloud on AWS software-defined data center (SDDC). If one host fails, what happens after a new host is automatically added to the cluster?

The SDDC and NVMe drives backing VMware vSAN capacity are unmounted from the failed host and attached to the new host. There is no VMware vSAN rebuild required.

The VMware vSAN rebuild starts in the background. Performance might be degraded during rebuild and the failures to tolerate (FTT) is lowered to 0.

The VMware vSAN rebuild starts in the background. Performance might be degraded during rebuild and the failures to tolerate (FTT) is lowered to 1.

A notification is received from VMware Support to start the VMware vSAN rebuild. Performance might be degraded during rebuild.

Correct Answer: C

Question 4 of 65

An administrator deploys a virtual machine and configures it to perform backups to an AWS Simple Storage Service (S3) bucket. After the first month of use, the administrator receives a bill from AWS indicating egress charges were applied to the backup traffic leaving the software-defined data center (SDCC), destined for the AWS S3 bucket. What can the administrator do to ensure backup traffic travels to the linked Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) through the Elastic Network

Interface?

Configure the S3 bucket with a public endpoint accessible over the Internet through HTTPS.

Configure Direct Connect to a private virtual interface for access to AWS services.

Create a gateway endpoint in the linked AWS VPC and configure it for use with the S3 bucket.

Configure a route-based virtual private network (VPN) for the SDDC to the VPC.

Correct Answer: C

To ensure that backup traffic travels to the linked Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) through the Elastic Network Interface, the administrator should create a gateway endpoint in the linked AWS VPC and configure it for use with the S3 bucket. Gateway endpoints allow services to be accessed without incurring egress charges by keeping the traffic within the AWS network, thereby ensuring that the traffic does not leave the AWS site through the Internet.

Question 5 of 65

A customer wants to ensure that VMware Cloud on AWS maintenance operations are performed during their maintenance window. Which option would allow the customer to achieve this outcome?

Schedule a maintenance preference in the software-defined data center (SDDC) console.

Schedule a call with VMware Cloud on AWS Support and schedule a maintenance window.

Schedule a call with AWS Support and schedule a maintenance window.

Schedule a maintenance window through an online support request.

Correct Answer: A

To ensure that VMware Cloud on AWS maintenance operations are conducted during a customer's preferred maintenance window, scheduling a maintenance preference in the software-defined data center (SDDC) console is the most appropriate option. This approach allows the customer direct control over their maintenance schedules, aligning with their operational priorities and minimizing disruptions. The other options, such as contacting VMware Cloud on AWS Support or AWS Support, are less direct and not tailored for specific maintenance scheduling.
