VMware 3V0-21.23 Practice Test 1

An architect is discussing recoverability considerations for a new vSphere solution as part of a requirements workshop. The customer has informed the architect that the company policy is to not perform backups of ESXi hosts due to their selected backup software not supporting the ESXi software. In the past, when hosts have experienced failures, the hosts have been reinstalled from the VMware provided ESXi image and manually configured by an administrator. The customer asks the architect to design a solution that will reduce the manual effort required by the administrator to return a failed host to service.
What could the architect include in the design to meet the customer's request?
Use the ESXi command line to perform backups of the ESXi hosts to a central location
Configure a host profile per cluster
Create a custom iso image of ESXi and update it each time VMware releases a new update
Configure ESXi hosts with RAID1 boot volumes
A Host Profile in vSphere allows for standardized host configurations across a cluster. Once a profile is created and configured for a cluster, it can be applied to any host in that cluster, ensuring that the configuration is consistent and easily replicated. In case of a host failure, the failed host can be reinstalled from the VMware ESXi image, and the Host Profile can be applied automatically to bring the host back to the desired configuration. This reduces the manual steps required for host recovery, as the configuration will be automatically applied to the reinstalled host.
