Question 7 of 76

An administrator must choose between deploying a virtual witness or physical witness for a vSAN Stretched Cluster. The administrator eventually decides to use a virtual witness.
What is a benefit of selecting this approach?

Reduced vSphere licensing

Shared metadata between separate clusters

Increased vSAN datastore capacity

Correct Answer: A

Question 8 of 76

Which two prerequisites are required before a vSAN administrator is able to use the vSAN Performance Diagnostics feature? (Choose two.)

The vSAN Performance Service must be enabled.

The vSAN Health Service must be turned on.

vSAN File Services must be disabled before running vSAN Performance Diagnostics.

Participation in the Customer Experience Improvement Program (CEIP) must be enabled.

Verbose Mode must be enabled when configuring vSAN monitoring.

Correct Answer: A, D

To use the vSAN Performance Diagnostics feature, there are two main prerequisites. Firstly, the vSAN Performance Service must be enabled. This enables the collection and visibility of performance metrics on the vSAN environment. Secondly, participation in the Customer Experience Improvement Program (CEIP) must be enabled. CEIP allows VMware to collect specific information, which is necessary for vSAN Performance Diagnostics to function effectively. Thus, the two required prerequisites are enabling the vSAN Performance Service and participating in CEIP.

Question 9 of 76

During yesterday's business hours, a cache drive failed on one of the vSAN nodes. The administrator reached out to the manufacturer and received a replacement drive the following day. When the drive failed, vSAN started a resync to ensure the health of data, and all objects are showing a healthy and compliant state. The vSAN administrator needs to replace the failed cache drive.
Which set of steps should the vSAN administrator take?

Remove the existing vSAN disk group, and physically replace the device. Then, check to verify that the ESXi host automatically detects the new device. Afterwards, manually recreate the Disk Group.

Physically replace the failed cache device, and vSAN will automatically create a new disk group. Then, remove the disk group with the failed device.

Physically replace the failed cache device, and vSAN will automatically allocate the storage. Then, rebalance the cache layer.

Place the disk group into maintenance mode, and select Full Data Migration. Then, physically replace the failed cache device. Afterwards, vSAN will rebuild the disk group automatically.

Correct Answer: A

When a cache drive in a vSAN disk group fails, the appropriate procedure is to remove the entire disk group that contains the failed cache device because vSAN does not allow the removal of just the cache disk. Following this, the physical device can be replaced. After the hardware replacement, it is necessary to verify that the ESXi host detects the new device and then manually recreate the disk group. This ensures that the new configuration is correctly recognized and used by vSAN.

Question 10 of 76

Which two conditions should be verified before removing an ESXi host from a vSAN cluster? (Choose two.)

Resyncs are running

Data evacuation is complete

Performance Service is disabled

Encryption is disabled

ESXi host is in maintenance mode

Correct Answer: B, E

Before removing an ESXi host from a vSAN cluster, ensure that data evacuation is complete to avoid data loss or unavailability. Additionally, the ESXi host should be in maintenance mode to ensure that no active resyncs or data operations are disrupted during the removal process.
