An architect is designing a solution for an environment with two types of resource profiles that must be virtualized. The first type consists of Tier 1 virtual machines that are disk I/O intensive, but do NOT require high CPU or memory. The second type consists of Tier 2 virtual machines that require a lower CPU and memory allocation and have minimal disk I/O.
Which design recommendation should the architect make for distributing the resource profiles?

1. A. Separate the two resource profiles into two cluster
2. B. The Tier 1 cluster will have fast storage while the Tier 2 cluster will not.
3. C. Run both resource profiles on the same cluster with the same host hardware platform.
4. D. Separate the two resource profiles into two cluster
5. E. The Tier 2 cluster will have faster CPU and more memory while the Tier 1 cluster will have slower CPU and less memory but more disk space.
6. F. Run both resource profiles on the same cluster with host hardware that has fast CPU, large amounts of memory, and the fastest storage platform.

Correct Answer: D

An architect is preparing a design for a company planning digital transformation. During the requirements gathering workshop, the following requirements (REQ) and constraints (CON) are identified:
REQ01 The platform must host different types of workloads including applications that must be compliant with internal security standard.
REQ02 The infrastructure must initially run 100 virtual machines.
REQ03 Ten of the virtual machines must be compliant with internal security standard.
CON01 The customer has already purchased the licenses as part of another project.
CON02 The customer has five physical servers that must be reused.
Additionally, based on resource requirements, four physical servers will be enough to run all workloads. Which recommendation should the architect make to meet requirements while minimizing project costs?

1. A. Use Network I/O Control to ensure the internal security zone has higher share value
2. B. Purchase additional servers and plan separate, isolated clusters for workloads that must be compliant with internal security
3. C. Use a single cluster and ensure that different security zones are separated at least with dedicated VLANs and firewall
4. D. Use a single cluster and configure DRS anti-affinity rules to ensure internal security compliant virtual machines cannot migrate between ESXi hosts.

Correct Answer: C

During a requirements gathering workshop, the customer provides the following requirement that is pertinent to the design of a new vSphere environment:
The Maximum Tolerable Downtime (MTD) for all Tier 1 applications is one hour. Which requirement classification is being gathered for the design documentation?

1. A. Manageability
2. B. Performance
3. C. Availability
4. D. Recoverability

Correct Answer: C

Which design decision must be included in a design to allow for the deployment of a minimum supported configuration of vCenter High Availability (HA)?

1. A. A new subnet will be provisioned for vCenter HA services
2. B. A vSphere cluster will consist of more than three nodes
3. C. The deployed vCenter Server will be Tiny
4. D. The vCenter HA network will support a latency of less than 50 ms

An architect is designing a new greenfield environment with 600 ESXi hosts in an automated fashion. The engineering department already has a PXE Boot server, TFTP server, and DHCP server set up with an NFS mount for their current Linux servers.
The architect must be able to demonstrate and meet a security requirement to have all infrastructure processes separated.
Which recommendation should the architect make for the ESXi host deployment?

1. A. Request an isolated network segment to use and dedicate it to Auto Deploy functions
2. B. Ask the business to expand the engineering environment to service the virtual environment as well
3. C. Request a common shared network with flexible security measures to accommodate different auto deployment options
4. D. Deploy each ESXi host individually and document it to satisfy security requirements
