Question 83

An architect is designing a VMware solution for a customer to meet the following requirements:

✑ The solution must use investments in existing storage array that supports both block and file storage.

✑ The solution must support the ability to migrate workloads between hosts within a cluster.

✑ The solution must support resource management priorities.

✑ The solution must support the ability to connect virtual machines directly to LUNs.

✑ The solution should use existing 32G fabric infrastructure.

✑ There is no budget for additional physical hardware.

Which design decision should the architect make to meet these requirements?

    Correct Answer: A

    The ESXi hosts should leverage Fibre Channel (FC) because the existing 32G fabric infrastructure indicates the use of a Fibre Channel network. FC supports high-speed data transfer and is compatible with both block and file storage, which fulfills the requirement of using existing investments in the storage array. Additionally, FC allows for direct VM-to-LUN connections needed for the solution. Since there is no budget for additional physical hardware, utilizing the existing infrastructure is the most viable option.

Discussion
nemisis95Option: A

A. The ESXi hosts will leverage Fibre Channel (FC). The solution should use existing 32G fabric infrastructure.

alleenbendeOption: A

for sure A

c11Option: A

It's A FC support RDM (ability to connect VMs directly to LUN) and can use existing 32G fabric too.

chistensenOption: B

The solution should use existing 32G fabric infrastructure.

FR_Wolfman

No. Answer A. iSCSI uses TCP/IP network.

diegof1Option: A

I agree with A A. The ESXi hosts will leverage Fibre Channel (FC)

mvojka1990Option: A

Support the ability to connect virtual machines directly to LUNs, seems to have VMs with RDM, FC supports this type of deployment and so A makes sense. Extra transceivers for FCoE need to be installed, as per budged limited no space to invest on those.

migonemati1414Option: C

FCOE because need of file storage and vms able to see luns

FR_Wolfman

No. block and file storage are available, but nothing says that both have to be used

FR_WolfmanOption: A

With a 32G fabric, it is Fibre Channel. iSCSI and FCoE will use TCP/IP network, then 1/10/25/40/100 Gbps networks. NFS not allow direct connection to LUNs. Regarding the "block & file storage", it is only stated that it exists...nothing says that both have to be used in the solution.

mazenkurOption: C

it is FCoE, block and file storage
