Dell EMC Specialist – Systems Administrator, Elastic Cloud Storage — Question 101

When the VxRail cluster is deployed, what are the vSAN storage policy settings that are applied to the VxRail Manager VM?

Answer options

• A. Failures to Tolerate: 2 failures - RAID-6 (Erasure Coding) Object space reservation: Thin provisioning
• B. Failures to Tolerate: 1 failure - RAID-1 (Mirroring) Object space reservation: Thick provisioning
• C. Failures to Tolerate: 1 failure - RAID-5 (Erasure Coding) Object space reservation: Thick provisioning
• D. Failures to Tolerate: 1 failure - RAID-1 (Mirroring) Object space reservation: Thin provisioning

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as it specifies that the VxRail Manager VM uses RAID-1 (Mirroring) with thin provisioning, which is optimal for its operational requirements. Options A and C propose higher tolerances or different RAID levels that are not typically applied to the VxRail Manager VM, while option B uses thick provisioning, which is not the default setting.
