Dell EMC Specialist – Systems Administrator, Elastic Cloud Storage — Question 116

When using a vSAN storage policy with FTT = 1 and FTM = Mirroring, how many witness components exist for a VMDK?

Answer options

• A. 0
• B. 1
• C. 2
• D. 3

Correct answer: B

Explanation

In a vSAN configuration with FTT set to 1, there is one primary copy of the data and one mirror, which requires a witness to maintain quorum. Therefore, the correct answer is B, as there is exactly 1 witness component needed for the VMDK. The other options are incorrect as they do not account for the necessity of a witness in this scenario.
