A customer is deploying Horizon View 7.1 utilizing a Cloud Prod Architecture. The customer wants to utilize 32-node clusters, and a single vCenter at each site to support 9,500 desktops per site.
Which two statements about this configuration are true? (Choose two.)
This configuration allows multiple pools to be grouped together using global entitlements, which is in line with utilizing a Cloud Pod Architecture. However, the configuration exceeds the maximum supported size for a View block, as each Horizon block should not encompass more than 2,000 desktops. While the question specifies 9,500 desktops per site, it necessitates multiple blocks to remain within supported limits.
his request arises from the fact that a single instance of vCenter Server can support 10,000 virtual machines. With View 5.2 and later, customers have the ability to use a single vCenter Server to manage a 10,000-desktop environment. https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Horizon-7/7.1/com.vmware.horizon-view.planning.doc/GUID-CE4019FE-0C43-462A-A08E-82357B1CAF8B.html AB
A - Incorrect. There is nothing in the question/statement where we can determine if this is true or not B - Correct. We're building a cloud pod, so you can combine pools. C - Incorrect. Maximum vSphere cluster is 32 D - Correct. A Horizon block supports 2000 users. Yes you can build multiple blocks into a pod, but the answer specifically says BLOCK not pod.
A B is Correct From "view-71-architecture-planning" A building block consists of physical servers, a vSphere infrastructure, View servers, shared storage, and virtual machine desktops for end users. A building block is a logical construct and should not be sized for more than 2,000 View desktops. Customers usually include up to five building blocks in a View pod, although in theory you can use more blocks than that, as long as the pod does not go above 10,000 sessions and 7 View Connection Server instances. Wrong C. This configuration requires a 64-node cluster per site. -> vSphere clusters can contain up to 32 ESXi hosts D. This configuration exceeds the maximum supported size for a View block. -> A building block is a logical construct and should not be sized for more than 2,000 View desktops.
In my studies I came to the conclusion that they are questions B and D, according to the limitation of 2000 desktops per Block.
But there is no statement about how many block are to be used in each site, is there? Which means you could potentially have 5 blocks per site and still be in a supported configuration: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Horizon-7/7.2/com.vmware.horizon-view.planning.doc/GUID-3FE970DF-382D-4F2A-B2E6-24B670B6705B.html
One block contain one vCenter, so you know how any block will be deployed... Agree with B D
