Question 33

A company is using vSAN Data At Rest Encryption. vCenter is placed on a separate management cluster with external storage. The external storage system has suffered from a disk error and the vCenter Server restore from backup has been unsuccessful, due to media errors.

Considering the scenario, which statement is true?

    Correct Answer: D

    In this scenario, if the external storage used by the vCenter Server has suffered from a disk error and the vCenter Server restore from backup has been unsuccessful, deploying a new vCenter using the existing Key Management Server (KMS) profile allows the new vCenter Server to be associated with the existing vSAN encrypted clusters. This approach ensures that the existing encryption keys can still be utilized to access the encrypted data on the vSAN datastore. Therefore, data is not necessarily lost, and a new vCenter can bring the encrypted clusters back to an operational state with the correct KMS configuration.
