Q17. An administrator is setting up vSAN file services on a vSAN cluster but is unable to join the vSAN File Services to the domain.
Which two possible reasons could explain this failure? (Choose two.)

Q18. An administrator of “vsan-prod” cluster noticed the witness components of VMs are flagged as absent after a failed attempt to replace the vSAN Witness Host.
Which action should the administrator take to resolve this issue?

Q19. Due to the success of the recently deployed developer-only private cloud solution, a company has a new requirement to at least double the usable capacity in their all-flash vSAN cluster.
The vSAN cluster is deployed into a co-located datacenter that is owned by a third-party hosting company. The hosting company charges a fixed monthly cost for rack space and power consumption. The service owner has been given a limited budget for additional hardware purchases, but not for on-going co-location costs.
The current vSAN cluster has the following configuration:
* 10 vSAN Nodes with 2 CPUs (20 cores), 512 GB RAM
* 1 Disk Group per vSAN node
– 1 x 400 GB
– 4 x 1.8 TB
* De-duplication and Compression is enabled.
* vSAN Capacity is currently:
– Total: 72 TB
– Usable: ~40 TB (FTT1/RAID1) and ~60 TB (FTT1/RAID5).
As a result of any action taken, the service owner would like to ensure that overall availability of the vSAN cluster is increased.
Which two recommendations meet the requirement to increase capacity while maintaining service availability? (Choose two.)

Q20. In a stretched vSAN cluster, how is Read Locality established after fail over to the secondary site?

Q21. for a customer who is planning to use vRealize Automation to provision 600 virtual machines into that cluster, with expected growth up to 1,000 VM. Each VM has a 40GB thick-provisioned disk.
Which flash disk size is required for the cache tier per ESXi node to meet all requirements?

Q22. An administrator has been tasked to reboot a node in an encrypted vSAN cluster. The vSAN disk groups on that node become locked after rebooting the node.
Which step should be performed to exit the locked state?

Q23. An organization has two vSAN clusters managed by the same vCenter Server, each providing 100TB of storage. The first cluster runs at 75% of its storage capacity, and the second cluster runs at 50% of its storage capacity.
The company also has the following:
* An iSCSI array of 300TB. which runs at 76% of its capacity
* A NAS system of 200TB, which runs at 10% of its capacity
* A Fiber channel (FC) array of 300TB, which runs at 80% of its capacity The administrator is asked to add an additional 25TB of storage to the first cluster. The administrator is also made aware that there is no budget to purchase new hardware and that the vSAN Storage Policy Based Management must be kept in place.
Which storage option will work for this use case?

Q24. An administrator is reviewing the root cause analysis of a failure event that resulted in vSAN Data Loss. The following information is known about the event:
1. The RAID battery-replacing procedure on one of the first vSAN cluster node took much more time than the vSAN administrator predicted.
2. The only Storage policy has a Primary level of Failures To Tolerate = 1.
3. Whilst the first host was in maintenance mode, another node failure occurred, causing da-ta loss in the vSAN cluster.
The administrator needs to update the procedure for completing maintenance on the cluster.
Which Maintenance Mode option should the administrator choose to ensure that data loss does not occur in the future?

Q25. A company has engaged a consultant to upgrade an existing vSAN cluster to vSAN 7.0 U1.
During the discovery phase, the consultant found the following information about the existing environment:
* The VMware vCenter Server has recently been upgraded from VMware vSphere 6.7 U3 to version 7.0 U1.
* The vSAN Cluster was recently expanded with identical hardware specification, but from a different hardware vendor.
* The hardware for each vSAN node is listed on the vSAN Compatibility Guide (VCG) for vSAN 7.
* The vSAN Cluster has the following configuration:
– vSAN version: 6.6.1
– Number of vSAN nodes: 10
– Encryption: enabled
– Deduplication and Compression: enabled
– vSAN Capacity Utilization: 60%
* Each vSAN node has the following configuration:
– VMware vSphere ESXi version: 6.5 Update 3
– CPU: 2 processors, 20 cores
– RAM: 768GB RAM.
– Disk: 2 Cache SSDs and 6 Capacity SSDs
– Network: 4 x 10GbE
Which three recommendations should the consultant make to ensure all data remains protected in the event of a vSAN failure? (Choose three.)

Q26. An administrator of “vsan-prod” cluster noticed the witness components of VMs are flagged as absent after a failed attempt to replace the vSAN Witness Host.
Which action should the administrator take to resolve this issue?

Q27. A 4-node vSAN cluster is configured with an erasure coding storage policy. The Ensure Accessibility maintenance mode was selected. While performing the maintenance, a second node fails.
What will be the impact on the vSAN cluster?

Q28. An administrator would like to upgrade ten identically configured 2-node vSAN clusters from vSAN 6.7 U3 to vSAN 7.0 U1. Currently, each 2-node vSAN cluster is using a dedicated vSAN witness host appliance. As a result of the upgrade, the administrator would like to leverage the vSAN shared witness feature to reduce the resources being consumed.
In preparation for the first vSAN cluster upgrade, the administrator has completed the following tasks:
1. Upgraded vCenter Server to vCenter Server 7.0 U1.
2. vSphere High Availability (HA) has been disabled on the vSAN Cluster.
3. Upgraded the vSAN witness host appliance to vSphere 7.0 U1.
4. Upgraded both vSAN data nodes to vSphere 7.0 U1.
The key requirement is to ensure that backwards compatibility to the existing version of vSAN is maintained during the upgrade process.
Which three additional steps should the administrator complete to ensure that subsequent clusters can share the same vSAN Witness? (Choose three.)

Q29. An administrator is tasked with migrating a VMware Horizon View environment that is currently running on an NFS Datastore to VMware vSAN.
Which Horizon configuration option will not be available when configuring vSAN in Horizon View?

Q30. An administrator wants to check the performance metrics for the workloads and their virtual disks that are running on a vSAN cluster, but no statistical charts are displayed in the vSphere client.
Why is this behavior being seen?

Q31. Which certificate file is needed to establish a Standard Key Provider trusted connection between vCenter and its Key Management Server (KMS)?
