A host in the cluster experiences a permanent NIC failure, and the replacement part will not arrive until the next morning. The administrator needs to ensure the availability of the production workload at all times.
Which step should be taken by the administrator to meet this goal?
To ensure the availability of the production workload, the administrator should place the host into Maintenance Mode with 'Full Data Migration.' This will migrate all data to other hosts in the cluster, maintaining data accessibility and protecting the virtual machines from being affected by the NIC failure. Shutting down the production VMs would cause downtime, performing a live vMotion alone would not ensure data redundancy, and disabling the vSAN Service would not address the NIC failure.
should be D I think
If it's a permanantent nic failure on the vmnic that vSAN uses then the host will be network partitioned and it will not go into MM with data migration since it can't move data to other hosts.
Then what is the answer? for me A,B,C doesn't make sens
agree with Jimmyjammer, Maintenance Mode: This is the way!
Answer is D. vSAN maintenance mode types 1.Ensure accessibility mode. This is the default option. ... 2. Full data migration mode. vSAN evacuates all data to other hosts in the cluster and maintains or fixes availability compliance for the affected components in the cluster. ... 3. No data migration mode.
maintenance mode. Because to ensure the availability of the production workload at all times
maintenance mode .
