VMware 3V0-21.21 Practice Test - Questions Answers, Page 4

An architect is tasked with reviewing the design of a VMware software-defined data center (SDDC) for a software development company. The platform is used to developing applications and services.

It is important that the customer be able to accurately benchmark performance of developed applications.

The platform has recently commissioned new hosts to update the development cluster.

The development cluster host configuration is:

4 ESXi hosts with 2 sockets × 16 cores

512 GB RAM divided evenly between sockets

There is no resource contention

The benchmarking cluster host configuration is:

8 ESXi hosts with 2 sockets × 8 cores

256 GB RAM divided evenly between sockets

There is no resource contention

The customer is developing an application that includes a database virtual machine. The application developer states that the database virtual machine performs as required only when allocated 8 vCPUs 256 GB RAM. The database virtual machine performance meets the required levels when run from the development cluster. Performance benchmarking for the database virtual machine yields highly variable results when run from the benchmarking cluster. The application cannot be released without reliable performance benchmarking data.

What is a possible reason for the difference in performance test results between the development and benchmarking clusters?

During a transformation project kick-off meeting, an architect highlights specific areas on which to focus while developing the new conceptual design.

Which two of the listed statements are business requirements? (Choose two.)

An architect is designing a VMware software-defined data center (SDDC) solution based on the following customer requirements:

The solution must initially support 1,000 virtual machines

The solution must scale to support the concurrent running of up to 5,000 virtual machines The production environment should be delivered across two data centers The solution should have a maximum tolerable downtime (MTD) of four hours The solution should have a monthly service availability target of 99.8% Which two assumptions could the architect make based on the information from the customer to help size the solution? (Choose two.)

A customer requires the use of data encryption to ensure data is not accessible when a drive is removed from the primary storage platform. However, there is also a requirement to use deduplication and compression against all workloads in order to conserve space.

Which solution meets the customer requirements?

During a requirements gathering workshop, the customer’s Chief Information Security Office (CISO) provides the following requirements that are pertinent to the design of a new vSphere environment:

All operating system critical patches must be installed within 24 hours of release.

All virtual machine templates must be updated every three months in line with company policy.

Which requirement classification is being gathered for the design documentation?

An architect is tasked with designing a greenfield VMware software-defined data center (SDDC) solution that will be used to deliver a private cloud service for a customer.

During the initial meeting with the service owner and business sponsor, the customer has provided the following information to help inform the design:

The solution must support the concurrent running of 1,000 virtual machines The production environment must be delivered across two geographically dispersed data centers All virtual machines must be capable of running in either data center.

The two data centers are currently connected to each other through a single but diversely routed, high bandwidth and low latency link.

The link between the two data centers is capable of supporting a round-trip time (RTT) of 150 ms The existing server hardware standard document states that all virtual infrastructure hosts must be deployed using vSAN ReadyNodes The service owner has stated that it is critical to ensure the availability target of 99.9% All virtual machine backups must be completed using the existing backup service The recovery time objective (RTO) for the service is five minutes The recovery point objective (RPO) of the service is four hours Which two elements represent risks to the successful delivery of this solution? (Choose two.)

An architect is designing a new vSphere platform for a customer to meet the following requirements:

The platform must be deployed into five physically separate sites.

The sites are spread across multiple regions.

Some sites require more than one vCenter Server.

The platform must provide an administrator with the ability to access virtual infrastructure components across all sites from a single management tool instance.

Which single sign-on (SSO) design recommendation will meet these requirements?

The storage team at an organization is planning to migrate from an older Fibre Channel storage environment to a new environment using IP-based storage.

Which two switch features or characteristics are appropriate for IP storage networks? (Choose two.)

An architect is designing a new VMware software-defined data center (SDDC) that will consist of 100 branch sites connected to a single VMware vCenter Server within the primary data center. To allow for the use of existing automation scripts, there is a requirement to replicate the names of the virtual distributed port groups across all sites. The procurement team purchases licensing and there is no further budget allocated.

Which design decision should the architect make to meet this requirement?
