VMware 3V0-21.23 Online Questions & Answers

  • Question 21:

    An architect is documenting the design for a new multi-site vSphere solution. The customer has informed the architect that the workloads hosted on the solution are managed by application teams, who must perform a number of steps to return the application to service following a failover of the workloads to the secondary site. These steps are defined as the Work Recovery Time (WRT). The customer has provided the architect with the following information about the workloads:

    Critical workloads have a WRT of 12 hours

    Production workloads have a WRT of 24 hours

    Development workloads have a WRT of 24 hours

    All workloads have an RPO of 4 hours

    Critical workloads have an RTO of 1 hour

    Production workloads have an RTO of 12 hours

    Development workloads have an RTO of 24 hours

    The customer has also confirmed that the Disaster Recovery solution will not begin the recovery of the development workloads until all critical and production workloads have been recovered at the secondary site.

    What would the architect document as the maximum tolerable downtime (MTD) for each type of workload in the design?

    A. The different processor architectures across both sites will remediate against a shared vSphere Lifecycle Manager baseline.
    B. The different processor architectures will be located in the same cluster to support vSphere Lifecycle Manager image-based remediation.
    C. The different processor architecture within a single site will remediate against a single vSphere Lifecycle Manager image.

  • Question 22:

    An architect is creating the design for a vSphere platform that will be used as the target for a migration from multiple legacy vSphere platforms that are being decommissioned. The customer has provided the following information:

    Each legacy platform has its own set of virtual machine templates stored in OVF format.

    All of the templates need to be migrated to the new platform.

    After migration, the templates should be centralized into a single location.

    The templates must be accessible to all clusters in the new platform vCenter instance.

    Any new templates added to the central location must be automatically available to all clusters.

    Administrators must be able to deploy new virtual machines directly from the template instances.

    The customer also confirmed that after the migrations are complete, the new platform will be the only vSphere solution available.

    Which design choice should the architect evaluate in the logical design for the storage and management of virtual machine templates?

    A. Use a dedicated datastore on each vSphere cluster
    B. Use a shared datastore on each vSphere cluster
    C. Use a subscribed content library
    D. Use a local content library

  • Question 23:

    An architect is designing the access management component of a vSphere-based solution. During a requirements gathering workshop, the customer states that the architecture must use a centralized user authentication solution.

    The architect decides that an Open Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (OpenLDAP) solution would meet the requirement. The security team intervenes and requires that the solution use the corporate Active Directory Domain Services

    solution.

    At which point did the architect's design become constrained?

    A. When the customer provided the requirement for the use a centralized user authentication solution.
    B. When the architect made the design decision to use an OpenLDAP solution for user authentication.
    C. When the architect finished documenting all of the requirements.
    D. When the customer required the use of the corporate Active Directory Domain Services solution.

  • Question 24:

    An architect is documenting the design decisions for a new vSphere solution. The following design decision has been made:

    Create a separate vSphere cluster for the management workloads What could the architect include as justification for this design decision?

    A. This increases operational overhead as multiple clusters are required for management and compute workloads.
    B. This increases capital expenditure as hardware must be purchased for multiple clusters.
    C. This ensures that compute workloads have no impact on the management workloads.
    D. This ensures that compute workloads have no impact on the management workloads.

  • Question 25:

    The following is a list of requirements from a discovery workshop for a new VMware hosting platform system design:

    REQ001 - The architecture must support recoverability to the VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery (VCDR) service.

    REQ002 - The architecture must support high availability (HA) and fault tolerance (FT).

    REQ003 - The architecture must support reducing existing energy consumption and carbon footprint.

    REQ004 - The architecture must provide support for network virtualization using distributed virtual switches.

    Which requirement would be classified as a business (formerly functional) requirement?

    A. The architecture must support high availability (HA) and fault tolerance (FT).
    B. The architecture must support reducing existing energy consumption and carbon footprint.
    C. The architecture must support recoverability to the VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery (VCDR) service.
    D. The architecture must provide support for network virtualization using distributed virtual switches.

  • Question 26:

    An architect is working on the cluster layout design for a new vSphere solution. The resource requirements for the first cluster state that memory demand can experience spikes of up to 20% over the documented average demand during peak business hours and the cluster must be able to handle these spikes without contention.

    Which design quality is being referenced?

    A. Availability
    B. Performance
    C. Recoverability
    D. Manageability

  • Question 27:

    An architect is holding a design workshop with a customer for a new solution.
