EMC Proven Professional – Elastic Cloud Storage Solutions Expert — Question 5

A planned VxRail deployment will use an External vCenter Server and syslog server. Which ping connectivity tests should succeed and which should fail before the deployment?

Answer options

• A. Succeed: ESXi hosts and syslog Fail: VxRail Manager and vCenter
• B. Succeed: VxRail Manager and ESXi hosts Fail: vCenter and syslog server
• C. Succeed: vCenter and syslog server Fail: VxRail Manager and ESXi hosts
• D. Succeed: VxRail Manager and syslog

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because the ESXi hosts and the syslog server should be reachable during the pre-deployment testing, while the VxRail Manager and vCenter, which are not yet fully integrated into the environment, will not respond. The other options suggest incorrect connectivity assumptions about the state of the deployment components.
