Question 93

An existing vSAN customer is considering vSAN File Services, and based on the current state analysis, the following information was provided:

• 7 vSAN ROBO clusters

• The clusters have two hardware BoM (Bill of Materials):

o BoM-01 Test & Dev Environment:

• 4 CPUs @ 2.50 GHz with 2 cores per CPU.

• 128 GB Memory.

• CachingTier 960 GB.

• CapacityTier 1.8 TB x 4.

• 10 GigE.

o BoM-02 Production Environment:

• 4 CPUs @ 2.60 GHz with 6 cores per CPU.

• 256 GB Memory.

• CachingTier 960 GB.

• CapacityTier 6 TB x 4.

• 10 GigE.

Which two recommendation should the architect propose? (Choose two.)

    Correct Answer: A, E

    The existing vSAN customer is considering vSAN File Services, which require specific hardware configurations. For vSAN File Services, each cluster should have a minimum of 4 nodes to ensure redundancy and performance. This is covered by recommendation to scale the vSAN clusters to 4 nodes at minimum. Additionally, vSAN File Services mandates that each node must have a minimum CPU configuration of 4 cores. Hence, upgrading BoM-01 CPU to have 4 cores minimum ensures compliance with the required hardware specifications.

kernelkrautOptions: AE

Technically this should be A & E. A: self explanatory, E: vSAN file servers requires a minimum ESXi node size of 4 cores.
